3. 含蓄虚拟条件句
常考的含蓄虚拟条件句句型有without, but for等介词表示条件,otherwise, but 等连词暗含一个条件:
1)Were it not for和Had it not been for
1)Were it not for+名词(=If it were not for+名词)意为“若不是”,“要不是”,“假设没有”,它表示与现在事实相反的假设,主句的谓语动词要用虚拟语气,根据具体情况分别用would/should/might/could+动词原形。例:
If it were not for the television, we couldn’t see things happening in other places.假如没有电视,我们就不能看到其它地方所发生的事情。
Were it not for the debts, we would be all right.如果不欠债,我们的生活就不成问题了。
2)Had it not been for+名词(=If it had not been for+名词),意为要不是”,“若不是”,“假设没有”,它表示与过去事实相反的假设,主句的谓语动词根据具体情况分别用would/should/might/could+have+p.p.例:
If it hadn’t been for the discovery of electricity,telegraph, telephone,radio and motion picture would have been altogether
impossible.若不是发现了电的话,那么电报、电话、无线电和电影统统都是不可能的。
Had it not been for air,there would have been no living things.若不是有空气的话,就没有生物了。
2)but that和only that
but that和only that表示“要不是”、”若不是”,它们引导的条件句的谓语动词用陈述语气,主句谓语动词要用虚拟语气。如果条件句的谓语动词用过去时态,主句的谓语动词根据具体情况的需要分别可用would/should/might/could+have+p.p.。如果条件句的谓语动词是现在时态,主句的谓语动词要根据假设的情况,即与现在事实相反的假设还是与过去事实相反的假设,分别用would/should/might/could+动词原形或have+p.p.。only that引导的条件句一般都在主句后,而but that引导的条件句在主句前后皆可。例:
But that I saw the machine,I couldn't have imagined how efficiently it works.如果不是看了这台机器,我无法想象它的效率会这样高。
He would have started,only that it rained.要不是下雨他早就动身了。

suppose, supposing (that),provided,unless, on condition that等连词引导的条件句的谓语动词既可用虚拟语气,也可用陈述语气,但是条件件句和主句的谓语动词的语气必须保持一致,例:
Supposing I didn’t agree,what would you do 要是我不同意;你会怎么办?
4)其他虚拟条件句的含蓄表达形式
有时候假设的条件不用条件从句来表达,而用介词短语、不定式、分词短语、比较级、连接词以及上下文含蓄地表达出来。尤其要注意:与otherwise,or,or else,but,and连用的含蓄条件句及but for;without;in the absence of等引导的条件状语,谓语动词要根据假设的具体情况确定用什么虚拟语气。
