Lesson 127 An Honest manPage two hundred forty-eight. Lesson one hundred twenty-sevenHe is honest. He’s not honest. He’s dishonest.“If you are honest, people will trust you. It is important for a person to have a reputation for being honest. If a person is dishonest, no one will want to be his friend. He will soon become an outcast. On the other hand, an honest man wins the respect of others. Honesty is, indeed, the best policy. ”2:19Honesty is the best policy.诚实是上策If 连词引导(副词从句)状语从句如果。
If I am free,I will see/visit you.If I am free, I’ll help you. 纯粹条件句只要我有空,就会帮助你。
(到底有没有空,不知道)在虚拟语气靠时态来帮助判断我现在很忙啊,如果我有空,我会帮助你。
If I were free, I would help you.(与现在事实相反)(实际没空,没法帮助你)从句be动词一定用were,主句助动词用过去式He’s very busy. If he were free now, he would help me. 8:13如果与过去状况相反,此时就要用过去完成时。
If+主语+had+过去分词他当时找我来帮忙,我当时好忙啊,所以当时没帮他忙,如果我当时有空的话,我会帮助他。
