虚拟语气是一种动词形式,表示说话人的一种愿望,假设,怀疑,猜测, 建议等含义,虚拟语气所表示的含义不是客观存在的事实。在条件句中的应用,条件句可分为两类,一类为真实条件句,一类为非真实条件句。非真实条件句表示的是假设的或实际可能性不大的情况,故采用虚拟语气。 一、虚拟语气在从句中的使用 虚拟语气即表达不可能发生或与预期相反的情况。首先我们应熟悉它在三种时态里的使用情况,这是正确使用虚拟语气的基础。这三种时态是:现在;过去;将来。 1、表示现在的虚拟式 时 态 从 句 动 词 主 句 动 词 现 在 did /(were) would (should, could, might)+ do
If I were a bird, I would fly to you. 如果我是只鸟,我就会飞到你身边去。 If it were not for their help, we should be in a very difficult position. 如果不是他们的帮忙,我们就会处于一个非常困难的境地。 2、表示过去的虚拟式 时 态 从 句 动 词 主 句 动 词 过 去 had + done would + have + done
If we had started earlier, we should not have missed the train. 如果我们早一点动身的话,就不会误车了。 If she hadn’t been ill, she might have come. 如果她不是病了,可能会来的 3、表示将来的虚拟式 时 态 从 句 动 词 主 句 动 词 将 来 should + do were to + do Would (should, might, could )
+ do
If Professor Li should have time tomorrow, we could ask him some questions. 如果李教授明天有空的话,我们可以问他点问题。 If there should be no air, there would be no living things. 如果没有空气,就不会有生物。 二、错综时间的虚拟句 通常情况下,在非真实条件句中主句和从句的谓语动词所指时间是一致的, 但有时也可能指不同的时间,这时要根据上下文的意思采用不同的谓语动词形式. If I were you, I would have taken his advice. (从句指现在, 主句指过去)。 换成我是你,我就会听从他的建议。 If I had taken my raincoat with me this morning, I would not be wet now. (从句指过去,主句指现在)。如果我今天早上带了雨衣,现在就不会被淋湿了。 If we hadn’t been working hard in the past few years, things wouldn’t be going so smoothly. (从句指过去,主句指现在)。如果过去几年里不努力工作,现在的情况就不会如此顺利了。 If the weather had been more favorable, the crops would be growing still better.(从句指过去,主句指现在)。如果当时的天气更好点,现在的庄稼就会长得更好。 If we had not got everything ready by now, we should be having a more terrible time tomorrow. (从句指现在,主句指将来) 如果现在一切还没准备好,明天情况就更糟了。 三、含蓄条件句 有时假设的情况并不以条件从句表示出来,二是暗含在上下文中,比如通过介词短语来表示。这些介词常是:but for, without, otherwise等。如: But for your advice, I could not have done it so successfully. 如果不是听了你的建议,我就不会做的如此成功。 The change could not have taken place without the open-door policy. 没有开放的政策,就不会有如此大的变化。 I was so busy then, Otherwise, I would have told him the answer. 我当时很忙,否则,我就会把答案告诉他的。
以下表格是虚拟语气用于条件状语从句中时,主句和从句谓语动词的形式: 条件状语从句 主 句 与过去事实相反 had + 过去分词 should /would/could/might + have + 过去分词
与现在事实相反 一般过去时(be用were) would/should/could/might + 动词原形
与将来事实相反 一般过去时或should(were to) + 动词原形 Would/should/cold/might + 动词原形
有时侯在使用时可省略if,句子则可换成下列形式,即“were / had / should +主语”。如: Were I a boy, I would join the army. Had he taken my advice, he would have succeeded. Were it not for the expense, I would go to Britain.四、虚拟语气在某些从句中的应用 1、wish后的宾语从句(would rather (sooner) 后也是如此) How I wish it wasn’t raining now. 如果现在不下雨该多好呀! I wish I had not been to yesterday’s party. 我要不去参加昨天的宴会就好了! I would rather they came tomorrow. 我宁愿他们明天来。 I would rather you did not win that game. 但would rather 后没有主语则应使用零不定式. If only I could fly. If only I had taken his advice. I had hoped that she would answer my phone. 2、在 if only 引出的感叹句中 If only I hadn’t lost it! 如果我要不丢该多好! If only I could see him once! 再能看到他一次该有多好! Oh, if he only knew how we miss him! 噢,希望他能知道我是多么思念他! 3、在 it is high time that 之后的定语从句中,谓语动词常用过去式表表示虚拟语气。 It is time that we went (should go) to bed. 现在该上床了。 It’s high time that we (should) put an end to this controversy. 现在该是结束这场争辩的时候了。
4、suggest, order, demand, propose, command, request, desire, insist, require, decide, ask 等动词后的宾语从句 They demanded that the aggressor troops (should) be withdrawn immediately. 他们要求侵略者立刻撤退。 I propose that we (should) set a deadline for handing in the plan. 我提议应该制定一个交计划的最后期限。 5、it is desired/suggested/requested/ordered that/proposed /necessary/ important /proper/ imperative/ essential/ advisable, it has been decided that等之后的主语从句: It is necessary that he (should) be sent there at once. 有必要立刻派他前往。 It’s required that Mr. Lee (should) give a performance at the party. It’s desired that we (should) get everything ready by tonight. 6、在suggestion, motion, proposal, order, recommendations, plan, idea 等后面引出的表语从句和同位语从句中: The order came that all villagers evacuate from the village. 要求所有村民撤退的命令下达了。 I second Xiao Li’s motion that we set up a special board to tackle the problem. 小李提议成立一个特别委员会处理此问题,我附议。 7、as if, as though 引起的从句,其用法同 wish 构成的宾语从句一样 I remember the whole thing as if it happened yesterday. It seems as if it were spring already. The animal was walking as though it had hurt its leg. It seems as if the meeting would never end.
8、 在下列句型中要用 should +动词原形。如:it is a pity, it is a shame, it is incredible, it is strange, it is no wonder It is a great pity that he should be so conceited. 很可惜,他这个人竟然这么自大。 It’s strange that she should have failed to see her own shortcomings. 奇怪的是他竟看不到自己的缺点。 9、用于expect, believe, think, suspect 等动词的否定或疑问形式后的宾语从句中。 I never expected that the new apartment should be so small. 没料到这桩新公寓竟这么小。
