虚拟语⽓详解

虚拟语⽓表⽰说话⼈的主观愿望（往往与客观事实相反），或是表⽰假象和猜测。虚拟语⽓⽆论从形式上还是时态上都⽐较复杂，需要归类记忆。

虚拟语⽓⼤体分为三类：(1) be型虚拟(2) were型虚拟(3) if 条件句及主句虚拟下⾯会详细说每种虚拟形式的特征和规律，考试时先判断属于哪种虚拟类型，剩下的皆是套路~

（1）be型虚拟（基本是套路）

形式：should + 动词原形，should可以省略

⽤法：1）表⽰“命令、建议、要求”等意义词语之后的宾语从句⽤be型虚拟，常见的词如下: demand, desire, insist, order, ask,command, propose, recommend, suggest, prefer, require, request等

最常见的形式是这类动词后⾯接着⼀个宾语从句，则宾语从句的谓语部分要⽤（should）+ 动词原形来虚拟

例: We demand that the meeting（should）be postponed.The manager suggested that we (should) work together.

注意：有时候你所见到不⼀定是上述动词引导的宾语从句，⽽是由上述词变体后所引导主语从句(it做形式主语，如：it isadvised/ suggested/ requested/ ordered/ proposed that…)、表语从句或同位语从句

例如：It is required that the students (should) learn a foreign language. (主语从句) The requirement is that all the equipmentin the meeting room (should) be checked twice before. (表语从句)

We didn’t stand for his proposal that the meeting (should)be postponed. (同位语从句)

只要看到句中有上述动词或其变体，不管词性怎么变、句型怎么变，都⽤be型虚拟！

特例：suggest和insist这两个⽐较特殊，当suggest作“暗⽰、表明、说明”讲，insist作“坚持说”讲，后⾯⼀般跟的是客观事实，不需要虚拟~这是⼀个⽐较重要的考点，体会下⾯两组句⼦：We all suggest that a lab (should) be built. 我们都建议建⼀个实验室。

Her expression suggests that she is angry. 她的表情说明她⽣⽓了。

She insisted that we should find the source of the river. 她坚持主张我们应该找到河的源头。

She insisted that she had done nothing wrong. 她坚持说⾃⼰没做错事。

suggest 的区别很明显，但insist有点难辨别，⼀般来说如果insist后⾯跟的是某种主张，或是坚持要做⼀件事，那么⽤虚拟。

2）表⽰主观看法，常表⽰“某事是必要的、重要的。。。怎么怎么样的”，尤其是在“ it is +名词/形容词+ that从句”结构中，常见的形容词包括：advisable, desirable, essential, imperative, important, necessary, obligatory, proper, dispensable,impossible, natural, surprising等

例如：It is advisable that you (should) leave now.It is necessary that teenagers (should) take part in outside activities.

It is of great importance that smoking (should) be banned in public area.

依旧是套路，熟悉这些关键提⽰词即可~3）表⽰“恐怕，担⼼，以免，万⼀”等，例如：if, lest, in case, for fear that等，后⾯的从句⽤（should）+ 动词原形来虚拟

注意：这⾥的if不是引导条件句，⽽是表⽰“以防”、“万⼀”

例：He took his raincoat with him in case it (should) rain.He took his raincoat with him for fear that he (should) be caught in the rain.

4）be型虚拟还⽤于表⽰“祝愿”的特殊结构，通常是May + 主语+ 动词原形例：May you be happy.⼏乎不考，了解即可~

（2）were型虚拟（要推时态）表达与事实情况相反、未曾实现的主观愿望，形式如下：

⽤法：1）wish引导的宾语从句，表⽰“希望”

例：I wish I were a bird. (对现在情况的虚拟)I wish you came here now. (我希望你现在就来)

I wish that I had passed the final exam. (对过去情况虚拟，实际上未通过考试)

I wish he would/ could come to help me with my paper, but he will go on business next week. (对将来情况虚拟，实际上下周来不了)

注意句⼦⾥的时间标志，有时没有时间标志，就需要⾃⾏体会~2）if only引导的感叹句，表⽰“要是…就好了”

例：If only she were here at this moment. 要是她此刻在这⼉就好了。If only I hadn’t made this mistake. 要是我没犯这个错误就好了。

If only you would / could attend my wedding. 要是你能来参加我的婚礼就好了。（现在也会⽤过去式表⽰将来，但是表⽰将来的不怎么会考，所以⽆需纠结）3）would rather, would sooner, would prefer, had rather等引导的宾语从句，表⽰“宁愿，但愿”

例：I would rather you came here now.l would rather he hadn’t told me the truth.

I’d rather you went tomorrow. (同样也会⽤过去式表⽰将来)

4）as if / as though 引导的状语从句，表⽰“似乎…，好像...”，与事实情况相反或⼏乎不⼤可能会发⽣

例：She speaks as though she were sick.He talked about the film as if he had seen it before.

It seems as if the meeting would never end.

注意：如果as if / as though 后⾯跟的是事实或者近乎事实，则不需要虚拟，只能意会不能⾔传，对⽐⼀下下⾯两句话就知道了，但这并不是⾼频考点It seems as if he has no worries. 看起来他似乎没有烦恼，是真的没有烦恼。

It seems as if he had no worries. 他只是看起来没烦恼，其实内⼼世界很纠结。（3）if条件句及主句虚拟

if引导的条件句分为真实条件句和⾮真实条件句，⾮真实条件句的主句和从句都要⽤虚拟语⽓,表⽰根本不存在的情况或可能性很⼩的假设。

主句和从句都有⼀定套路，⽽且要根据时态搭配使⽤，具体见下表：

例：If I had enough money, I would buy myself a computer.If we had had enough rain last year, we could have gained a good harvest.

If I should see/ were to see/ saw him tomorrow, I would invite him home. would, could, might, should在意思上稍有区别，would语⽓肯定，表⽰⼗有⼋九会出现的结果；could 表⽰能够；might表⽰或许；should表⽰应该，但这个区别真的不重要…考试也不会在这个上⾯做⽂章，⾃⼰稍稍理解体会，留个印象就⾏。注意1：表格中的是最基本的规则，主句和从句发⽣在同⼀个时空（假如我当初怎样，那么我当时就会怎样，都是发⽣在过去时间；假如我现在怎样，我现在就会怎么怎么，都是发⽣在当下）。但也会有些情况，主从句动作发⽣的时间不⼀致（假如我以前怎么样，我现在就会怎样；假如我现在怎样，我将来就会怎样。）我们把这种类型的句⼦称作“错综时间”虚拟条件句，看上去很厉害的样⼦，其实只需要把主从句分开独⽴分析，看主、从句分别是对什么时间的虚拟，各⾃对应表格就⾏。关键是先判断主、从句发⽣时间是否⼀致，考试很喜欢考~

例：If you had worked hard, you would be very tired. 如果你刚才认真⼯作了，你现在就会很累。主句对现在虚拟，从句对过去虚拟。If you followed my advice now, you would succeed in the final exam next month.

要是你现在听我的话，下个⽉的期末考肯定没问题。主句对将来虚拟，从句对现在虚拟。

注意2：虚实混⽤，有的部分是真实的，有的部分是虚拟的，⾮真实的部分才虚拟，真实的部分⽤正常语法形式

例：If I had been at the concert yesterday evening, I should have met the famous singer. But I failed to get a ticket. 前⾯是对过去的虚拟，是没发⽣的，但是没买到是真实发⽣的，所以正常⽤过去式即可。

注意3：倒装结构：if从句中如果含有were，should，had时可以省略if，将were，should，had倒装⾄主语之前。

例：If I were you, I would apply for the job. ——> Were I you, I would apply for the job.If you had taken my advice, you wouldn’t have failed in the examination. ——> Had you taken my advice, you wouldn’t havefailed in the examination.

If he should arrive there in advance, I would show him around London. ——> Should he arrive there in advance, I wouldshow him around London.

注意4：有时假设的情况并不⽤if从句表⽰出来，⽽是通过⼀个介词/介词短语（without, but for等）、副词（otherwise）、连词（or, but, but that等）、were it not for、had it not been for, 这属于含蓄的虚拟语⽓。虽然没出现if，还是按照前⾯说的套路来
