26、so6. of immense size【Key structure】虚拟语气详细讲义语法：虚拟语气： 一虚拟语气的定义 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！ 二虚拟语气在条件从句中的用法。 条件从句有两类，一是真实条件句，另一是虚拟条件句。如果假设的情况可能发生，是真实条件句，这种情况下

27、谓语用陈述语气。if有表示“如果”的意思如： If time permits, well go fishing together.如果时间允许，我们就一起去钓鱼。 （主将从现）如果假设的情况是不存在的或不大可能发生的，则是虚拟条件句。虚拟条件句就是对现实条件的一种虚拟假设，所假设的条件一般不符合事实或与事实相反或在现实中发生的可能性极小。根据时间的不同，虚拟条件句可分为三种，即与现在事实相反的虚拟条件句、与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句及与将来事实相反的虚拟条件句。如： If you had come yesterday, you would have met that famous profess

28、or. 如果你昨天来，你就会见到那位著名的教授了。（隐含的事实是：你昨天没来，也没见到那位著名教授） 在含有虚拟条件句的复合句中，主从句的谓语都要用虚拟语气，现将其形式列表如下： 区分 条件从句 主句 与现在事实相反 If主语过去式（从句中系动词be多用were形式） 主语would/should/could动词原形 与过去事实相反 If主语had过去分词 主语would/should/couldhave过去分词 与将来事实相反 If主语过去式/should动词原形/were to动词原形 主语would/should/could动词原形动词形式 时间从句主句 与现在事实相反动词过去式从句用过

29、去式(be的过去式用were) 主句would(could/should/might)+动词原形 与过去事实相反从句用had+动词过去分词 主句用would(could/should/might)+have过去分词 与将来事实可能相反动词过去式 从句用should+动词原形 主句用would(could/should/might)+动词原形 或者were to+动词原形would(could/should/might)+动词原形 注：主句中的should只用于第一人称，但在美国英语中，should常被would代替；从句中的should可用于各种人称。 1表示与现在事实相反的假设和结果。如：

30、If I were you, I should(would ,could, might)tell him the truth. 要是我是你，我就会告诉他真相了。（事实上我不是你） If she had time, she would(could, might)help me. 如果她有时间，她就会帮我了。（事实上她没有时间） 2 表示与过去事实相反的假设和结果。如： If I had known your telephone number yesterday, I should(would, could, might)have telephoned you. 如果昨天我知道了你的电话号码，我就

31、会给你打电话了。（事实上我昨天不知道你的电话号码。） If you had taken my advice, you wouldnt(couldnt) have failed in the exam.如果你听了我的建议，你就不会考试不及格。（事实上你根本没听我的） 3 表示与将来事实可能相反的假设和结果。如： If it should rain, the crops would(could, might)be saved. 假如天下雨，庄稼可能就收获了。 -What would happen if I put the paper on the fire？ -It would burn. -我若

32、把只放在火上会怎么样？ -纸会烧着。 注：在表示与将来事实可能相反的条件从句中，were to + 动词原形比较正式，常用于书面语中。如： If you were to go to Beijing, you would (could, might) have a chance to visit Tian An Men Square. 三虚拟语气的其它用法 1 虚拟语气在主语从句中的用法 在“It is important (strange, natural, necessary) that”这类句型中，that所引导的主语从句中的谓语动词常用 “(should)+动词原形”结构，表示某事是“重

33、要”，“奇怪”，“自然”，“必要”等意义。如: It is important that every Beijinger (should) be able to speak English. 重要的是每个北京人能说英语。 It is necessary that he (should) be sent to hospital at once. 有必要马上把他送医院。2 虚拟语气在宾语从句中的用法 （1）在动词wish后的宾语从句中，表示与现在或过去的事实相反，或对将来的主观愿望，从句通常省略连词that。 a.表示对现在情况的虚拟：从句动词用过去式或过去进行式(be的过去式用were )表示。

34、如： I wish I knew the answer to the question. 我希望知道这个问题的答案。（可惜不知道） I wish it were spring in my hometown all the year around 但愿我的家乡四季如春。（只是愿望，实际根本不可能实现） b.表示对过去情况的虚拟：从句动词用 had+过去分词。如： I wish (that) I hadnt wasted so much time. 我后悔不该浪费这么多时间。（实际上已经浪费掉了） He wishes (wished) he hadnt lost the chance. 他真希望没

35、有失去机会。（事实上机会已经失去了，他感到惋惜） c.表示对将来的主观愿望：谓语动词形式为 “would/should/could/might+动词原形”，此时要注意，主句的主语与从句的主语不能相同，因为主句的主语所期望的从句动作能否实现，取决于从句主语的态度或意愿（非动作名词除外）。如： I wish it would stop raining. 但愿雨能停止。 I wish you would be quiet. 我希望你安静一些。 （2）在suggest（建议）, demand(要求), order(命令), propose(建议), insist（坚持要做）, command(命令),

36、 request(要求), desire(希望)等动词后的宾语从句中，谓语动词用 “(should)+动词原形”，表示建议，要求，命令等。如： I suggest that we (should) start the meeting at once.我建议马上开会 The undergraduate insisted that he (should) go to work in the south 这位即将毕业的学生坚持要到南方去工作。 注：当suggest表示暗示，主语为something；insist表示坚持观点时，后接的宾语从句用真实语气。比较： His silence suggeste

37、d that he agreed with my decision. 他的沉默暗示着他赞成我的决定。 He suggested that I (should) stick to my decision他建议我坚持自己的决定。 He insists that doing morning exercises does good to peoples health. 他坚持认为做早操对健康有益。 He insists that he (should) do morning exercises every day 他坚持他每天都要早操 3 虚拟语气在表语从句中的用法 当主语为advice, sugge

38、stion, order, proposal等词时后接表语从句，表语从句中的谓语动词常用“(should)+动词原形”结构，表示某人建议、劝告、命令等的内容。如： My advice is that you should practise speaking English as often as possible. 我的建议是你尽可能经常地练习说英语。 The order from the commander was that the troops should set off for the front immediately. 司令官的命令是部队立即开拔去前线。 4特殊的虚拟语气结构。 （

39、1）虚拟语气用在状语从句中 由as if 或as ，though引导的状语从句表示比较或方式时，从句中的谓语动词用虚拟语气。动词形式用动词的过去式 (bewere) 或had + 过去分词。如： The teacher treats the student as if he were her own child 这位老师带这位学生就象她的亲生孩子一样。 He speaks as if he had been to the United States 他说得好象他真的到过美国似的。 （2）在It is time (that) ; Id rather (that)句型中从句的谓语动词常用动词的过去

40、式表示虚拟语气，意思是“该干某事了，时间已经有些晚了”“我宁愿/希望”。如： It is time that we did something to stop pollution. 该我们做些什么制止污染的时候了。 It is time that Father picked up Lily from the kindergarten. 该父亲去幼儿园接莉莉的时候了。 Id rather you told me the truth. 我真希望你告诉我真相。 Id rather I didnt see you again. 我宁愿不再见着你。 （3）虚拟语气用在简单句中 a 情态动词的过去式用于现

41、在时态时，表示说话人的谦虚、客气、有礼貌、或委婉的语气，常用于日常会话中。如： Would you be kind enough to show me the way to the post office? 请你告诉我去邮局的路好吗？ It would be better for you not to stay up too late. 你最好别熬夜到很晚。 b在一些习惯表达中。如： Youd better set off now. 你最好现在就出发。 Id rather not tell you the secret.我情愿不告诉你这个秘密。 c用 “may+动词原形”表示祝愿，但愿，此时m

42、ay须置于句首（多用于正式文体中）。如： May good luck be yours! 祝你好运！ May you be happy! 祝你快乐！ May you do even better!祝你取得更大成就！ 用动词原形。例如： Long live the people! 人民万岁！ “God bless you,” said the priest. 牧师说：“愿上帝保佑你！” 5虚拟语气在同位语从句中的用法 在名词advice, suggestion, order, proposal等后接的同位语从句中，谓语动词用虚拟语气，起形式为 “(should)+动词原形”，说明“建议”，“劝告

43、”，“命令”等的具体内容。如： The order came that the work should be finished two days ahead of time. 提前两天完成工作的命令传来了。 Reluctantly she accepted their proposal that she should be operated on. 她勉强接受了他们要她去接受手术的建议。 （一） 主从句时间不一致情况下的虚拟语气(混合条件句) -考点，难点（二） 有时条件从句中的动作和结果与主句中的动作，发生的时间不一致，这时动作的形式应根据它所表示的时间加以调整。如： If you had

44、followed my advice, you would be able to finish the work now.如果你当时听了我的话，现在就能完成这份工作了。（从句说明过去，主句说明现在） If I were you, I would have gone to her birthday party. 如果我是你，我就去参加她的生日晚会了。（从句说明现在，主句说明过去） If you hadnt lent me some money, I couldnt have bought the new house and most likely I would be still living in the dangerous house now. 假若你不借钱给我，我不可能买下这幢新房，很可能现在还住在危房里。这个虚拟语气讲义包含了所有虚拟语气的知识点和考点，做题目的时候，大家可以根据讲义边看边做加深熟练程度。然后再过渡到脱离讲义，独立练习。
