2、!再也不要迟到了。Dont forget to turn off the light.别忘了关灯。、虚拟语气:表示动作或状态不是客观存在的事实,而是说话人的主观愿望、假设或推测等。如:If I were a bird, I could fly in the air.如果我是一只小鸟,我就能在空中飞行。I wish I could pass the examination.我希望我能通过考试。May you succeed!祝您成功!虚拟语气的套用规则非真实条件句 1)时态:可以表示过去,现在和将来的情况。它的基本特点是时态退后。a. 同现在事实相反的假设。 句型 :条件从句 主句一般过去时 s

6、ou had asked him yesterday, you would know what to do now.(从句与过去事实相反,主句与现在事实相反。)If it had rained last night (过去), it would be very cold today (现在).虚拟条件句的倒装虚拟条件句的从句部分如果含有 were, should, 或 had, 可将 if 省略,再把 were, should 或 had 移到从句句首,实行倒装。Were they here now, they could help us.=If they were here now, the

Was I答案 C. 在虚拟条件状语中如果有 were, should, had 这三个词,通常将 if 省略,主语提前, 变成 were, should, had +主语的形式。但要注意,在虚拟条件状语从句中,省略连词的倒装形式的句首不能用动词的缩略形式。如我们可说 Were I
9、 not to do., 而不能说 Werent I to do.特殊的虚拟语气词:should1) It is demanded / necessary / a pity + that结构中的主语从句的谓语动词要用 should 加动词原形, should 可省略。句型: (1)suggestedIt is (2)important that+ (should) do(3) a pity(1)suggested, ordered, proposed, required, demanded, requested, insisted; + (should) do(2)important, nec

11、uggest that we (should) hold a meeting next week.He insisted that he (should ) be sent there.注意: 如 suggest, insist 不表示“建议“ 或“坚持要某人做某事时“,即它们用于其本意“暗示、表明“、“坚持认为“时,宾语从句用陈述语气。 The guard at gate insisted that everybody obey the rules. 判断改错:(错) You pale face suggests that you (should) be ill.(对) Your pale

20、件句中的虚拟语气和表示愿望的虚拟形式等。虚拟语气是英语三级考试的必考知识点之一,也是体现英汉语言习惯区别的一个语法现象。在汉语里表示假设虚拟的情况常用一些虚词来表示,例如“假设”、“如果”等等;而英文中表示虚拟的情况不但有虚词的提示,谓语动词也要相应的变化。虚拟语气的基本作用是:1. 表达假设的情况,与事实相反;2. 表达异想天开很难实现的愿望;3. 表达建议、命令、劝告等语气。本节重在讲解 if 引导的虚拟条件句, 含蓄条件句,特殊结构中的虚拟语气,以及 should+动词原形的用法。一、虚拟语气的基本形式和用法虚拟(条件) 语气中,主句与从句中谓语动词的形式可分为下面三类:假设类型条件从句
21、谓语动词形式主句谓语动词形式与现在事实相反 If+动词的过去式(be 用 were 而不用 was)would(第一人称可用 should)+动词原形与过去事实相反 If+had+-ed 分词 would(第一人称可用 should)+have+-ed 分词与将来事实可能相反 If+were to+动词原形或 If+should+动词原形 would(第一人称可用 should)+动词原形下面我们列举近年的真题来强化记忆。例(1)Mary said to me, “Had I seen your bag, I _ it to you.“A. will returnB. must returnC
22、. could returnD. would have returned(【 答案】D)(2004 年 4 月 45 题)例(2)I would ask George to lend us the money if I _ him.A. had knownB. have knownC. knewD. know(【 答案】C)(1995 年 38 题)例(3)If Bob_ with us; he would have had a good time.A. would come B. would have come C. had comeD. came(【 答案】C)(1995 年 59 题)
23、二、省略 if 的虚拟形式 在虚拟条件句中,如谓语包含 were,had,should 等词,则可以把这些词放到主语前面,省略 if。例(1)_ the advice of his friends, he would not have suffered such a heavy loss in his business.A. If he tookB. If he should take C. Were he to takeD. Had he taken(【 答案】D)(2004 年 4 月 32 题)例(2)_, I should ask them some questions.A. Shou

Had I realizedC. Did I have realized thatD. As I realized(【 答案】B)(1996 年 39 题)三、含蓄条件句 有时一个假设的情况不用条件从句表示,而用其它方
25、式来表示,这样的句子叫含蓄条件句。常用 with,without,but for。例(1)Without heat and sunlight, plants on the earth _ well.A. would not growB. will not growC. had not grownD. would not be grown(【 答案】A)(2004 年 11 月 32 题)例(2)But for my classmates help, I _ the work in time.A. did not finishB. could not finishC. will not fini

27、;表示一个过去没有实现的愿望用:主语wish +从句( 主语过去完成时);例(1)I didnt go to the party, but I do wish I _ there.A. wereB. would beC. had beenD. will be(【答案】C)(2001 年 53 题)例(2)Peter wishes that he _ law instead of literature when he was in college.A. could studyB. studiedC. had studiedD. would study(【答案】C)(2000 年 53 题) if
28、 only +句子(过去时/过去完成时)“要是就好了”If only 后面的句子如果是对现在或将来情况的虚拟,用过去时 did ;如果是对过去情况的虚拟,用过去完成时 had done . 要注意与 if 区别,if 只表示假设, “如果” ,用真实语气;而 if only 表示不可能实现的情况,用虚拟语气。例如:If only the alarm clock had rung. 当时闹钟响就好了。(对过去虚拟)If only I were rich. 要是我富有就好了。( 对现在虚拟) would rather句子( 过去时 )表示宁愿、宁可的意愿,语气比较婉转。后接过去式。例(1)I am

30、y footballC. play footballD. are playing football(【答案】A)(2004 年 11 月 43 题) 以 as if,as though 引导的从句在 as if, as though 引导的从句中,如果谈论的是不可能或不真实的情况时,它们所引用的状语从句要用虚拟语气,动词形式和 wish 后面的从句动词形式变化相同。例:He talks as if he _ everything in the world.A. knowsB. knew C. had known D. would have known(【答案】B。本句表示说话人对现在的情况有所
31、怀疑,所以用过去时。)五、should+动词原形及 should 的省略 (1)、一些表示建议、要求、命令等的动词本身隐含说话者主观的意见。因此这些动词(或其变形,如名词,形容词,分词等) 后面的从句应使用虚拟语气,即 “should do”结构,其中的“should”常被省略。 如:表“提议、建议”的动词:suggest ,advise, propose, recommend, move(提议);表“要求、主张”的动词:insist, require, request, demand , desire ;表“命令”的动词:order, command.例(1)I dont think it

34、例(1)it is vital that enough money_collected to get the project started.A. is B. be C must be D can be(【答案】B)(2004 年 11 月 24 题)例(2)It s urgent that a meeting _ before the final decision is made.A. will be arrangedB. must be arrangedC. be arranged D. would be arranged(【答案】C)(2003 年 4 月 45 题)(3)、以 in case, lest, for fear that 引起的状语从句,表示“以防,以免” 。其形式为should+动词原形。如:He took his raincoat with him in case it should rain.他把雨衣带在身上以防下雨。
