当人们第一次看到他的画时，还以为是透过墙上的小洞来观察真实的场景，并对此深信不疑。【点拨】该句是一个复合句，when引导一个时间状语从句，主句为they were convinced，且包含一个省略了that的宾语从句。looking后面接了两个介词短语through a hole和at a real scene, in the wall作a hole的后置定语，汉语意为“通过墙上的小洞来观察真实的场景”。8. On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. [翻译] 有些现代艺术是抽象的，也就是说，画家并不打算把我们眼睛看到的东西如实地画出来，而是集中展现物体的某些品质特性，用色彩、线条和形状把它们呈现出来。【点拨】本句中的that is可以作that is to say，意为“换句话说”，相当于in other words，用于更清楚地解释刚刚说过的话。解释部分是一个由but连接的并列句：前一个分句包含一个as引导的方式状语从句；后一个分句中的using colour, line and shape为动词-ing形式短语作状语。SummaryNow draw the history of western painting:Middle Ages, from 5th to 15th century.Impressionism:

在英语中，表示说话人所说的话不是事实，而是一种假设、愿望、怀疑或推测，要用虚拟语气。虚拟语气可以用于条件状语从句、主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句等。本节课我们主要学习if条件从句和wish后的宾语从句中表示现在或将来情况的虚拟语气的用法。一、虚拟语气用于条件状语从句中
(1) 表示与现在事实相反的假设, 条件 状语从句中的谓语动词用“过去式(be 动词的过去式用were)”, 而主句中的谓语动词“would / should/ could / might + 动词原形”。 e.g. If I were a boy, I would join the
army.What would you do if you won the lottery?
If I won the lottery, I would…If I had a lot of money, I would buy a villa.If I had a lot of money, I would buy a villa.If I had a lot of money now, I would travel around the world.If I had a lot of money, I would go shopping.If I _____ a teacher, I would …were(2) 与过去的事实相反从句的谓语用had ＋ 过去分词, 构成 If I (we, you, he, they)＋had＋过去分词的形式；
主句的谓语用should(第一人称)/would (第二、三人称) / could / might have ＋动词过去分词。If he __________ more carefully, he _________________ the car accident yesterday.had driven would not have had If I __________ how to swim,I __________________ trapped in this island.had learnt would not have been (3) 与将来事实相反从句的谓语用If I (we, you, he, they) ＋动词过去式或 were to do 或should do 形式, 主句谓语用should(第一人称) /would (第二、三人称) /could/ might ＋动词原形。If you succeeded, everything would be all right.
If you should succeed, everything would
be all right.
If you were to succeed, everything would be all right.If he got up early, he would be on time.假如他来了，我们对他说什么呢？If he were to come, what should we say to him.假如他看见我，就会认识我。If he should see me, he would know me. 主句与从句的动作发生在不同的时间, 这时主从句谓语动词的虚拟语气形式因时间不同而不同, 这叫做混合条件句。
e.g. If you had asked him yesterday, you
would know what to do now.
例句中从句与过去事实相反, 主句与现在事实相反。If the staff had been more careful, the mall would not be on fire now.过去时(were)would/could/should/might +v. (原)总结：虚拟语气在条件状语从句中的用法。过去完成时would/could/should/might + have + p.p.1. 过去时
2. should + v.
3. were to dowould/could/ should/ might + v. (原)二、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。1) 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动词一般用were) 。I wish I were as tall as you.I wish every day were my birthday.I wish/wished I hadn’t eaten so much watermelon.(2) 表示对过去情况的虚拟: 从句动词常用“had＋过去分词”。The party was terrible, I wish I had never gone to it.(3) 表示对将来的主观愿望: 从句动词形式为 “ would＋动词原形”。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(非动物名词除外)。
e.g. 但愿你立刻来。
I wish you would come soon.I wish it would rain tomorrow.2. 表示要求，命令，建议的虚拟语气。 常见动词： 一个坚持，两个命令，三个建议，四个要求。即:
insist
2. order, command
3. advise, suggest, propose
4. demand, require, request, desire这些动词后面的宾语从句要使用虚拟语气。
即从句中的动词使用should + 动词原形，
或者将should省略。e.g. 我们建议汤姆去休息一下。
他坚决要求我到场。We suggested that Tom (should) have a rest.He insisted that I (should) be present.The king ordered that the prisoners
(should) be killed the next day.They requested that we (should) send
them to work there.e.g. 国王命令囚犯明天要实施死刑。
他们要求我们派他们去那儿工作。 以上动词相应的名词构成的名词性从
句包括主语从句，表语从句和同位语从句
也要使用虚拟语气。从句中的动词形式一
样。即：(should)＋v.
order, advice, suggestion, proposal,
demand, request, desiree.g. It’s suggested that the plan be carried out.
My demand is that she should come to
see me once a week.
All of us are for the advice that the
chemical factory should be closed down. insist / suggest 不接虚拟的用法e.g. She insisted that she was right.
她坚持认为自己是对的。（坚持事实）
His uncle insists that he should not stay
in the hotel.
他的叔叔坚持要求他不要待在旅馆里。e.g. The look on his face suggested that
he was unhappy.
I suggested that the teachers’ wages
(should) be increased.3. It’s (about/high) time + (that)…should +v.过去时你该走了。我们该去睡觉了。It’s time that you went.
It’s time that you should go.It’s time that we went to bed.
It’s time that we should go to bed. (should不可省略)as if/as though由as if (as though)或even though (even though) 引导的状语从句表示比较或方式时, 从句谓语形式为动词的过去式 (be用were) 或 “had＋过去分词”。He behaves as if he owned the house.(But he doesn’t own it or probably doesn’t own it or we don’t know whether he owns it or not.)She talks about Rome as though she had been there herself.他那样对待我，好像我是陌生人似的。He treats me as if I were a stranger.注意： 如果表示的事情可能会发生，那么方式状语从句中的谓语动词可用陈述语气。Even if she were here, she could not solve the problem.4. would rather (that)现在：
过去：
将来：I would rather you paid me now. I would rather you had gone, too.Don’t come. I would rather you came

古根海姆博物馆1929–30 At age sixty-six, the wealthy American industrialist Solomon R. Guggenheim begins to form a large collection of important modern paintings by artists such as Vasily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, and Marc Chagall. He is guided in this pursuit by a young German artist and theorist, Hilla Rebay (born Baroness Hilla Rebay von Ehrenwiesen). In July 1930, Rebay brings Guggenheim to Vasily Kandinsky’s Dessau studio, and Guggenheim purchases several of the artist’s paintings and works on paper; he will eventually acquire more than 150 works by Kandinsky.5th Avenue and 88th Street

Dear Committee members,
I wish to make a suggestion about starting a school art gallery. There are many students who are good at painting in our school. The school art gallery can provide these students with a very good platform to display their own paintings, and through the art gallery, other students may not only get a chance to admire the artistic achievements and the development of school culture but also can widen their knowledge. If you were to offer such an opportunity to the students who are fond of art, I believe they would give you a big surprise.
I would be more than happy if my suggestion could be considered.
Yours faithfully,

On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them.

在英语中，表示说话人所说的话不是事实，而是一种假设、愿望、怀疑或推测，要用虚拟语气。虚拟语气可以用于条件状语从句、主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句等。本节课我们主要学习if条件从句和wish后的宾语从句中表示现在或将来情况的虚拟语气的用法。一、虚拟语气用于条件状语从句中
(1) 表示与现在事实相反的假设, 条件 状语从句中的谓语动词用“过去式(be 动词的过去式用were)”, 而主句中的谓语动词“would / should/ could / might + 动词原形”。 e.g. If I were a boy, I would join the
army.What would you do if you won the lottery?
If I won the lottery, I would…If I had a lot of money, I would buy a villa.If I had a lot of money, I would buy a villa.If I had a lot of money now, I would travel around the world.If I had a lot of money, I would go shopping.If I _____ a teacher, I would …were(2) 与过去的事实相反从句的谓语用had ＋ 过去分词, 构成 If I (we, you, he, they)＋had＋过去分词的形式；
主句的谓语用should(第一人称)/would (第二、三人称) / could / might have ＋动词过去分词。If he __________ more carefully, he _________________ the car accident yesterday.had driven would not have had If I __________ how to swim,I __________________ trapped in this island.had learnt would not have been (3) 与将来事实相反从句的谓语用If I (we, you, he, they) ＋动词过去式或 were to do 或should do 形式, 主句谓语用should(第一人称) /would (第二、三人称) /could/ might ＋动词原形。If you succeeded, everything would be all right.
If you should succeed, everything would
be all right.
If you were to succeed, everything would be all right.If he got up early, he would be on time.假如他来了，我们对他说什么呢？If he were to come, what should we say to him.假如他看见我，就会认识我。If he should see me, he would know me. 主句与从句的动作发生在不同的时间, 这时主从句谓语动词的虚拟语气形式因时间不同而不同, 这叫做混合条件句。
e.g. If you had asked him yesterday, you
would know what to do now.
例句中从句与过去事实相反, 主句与现在事实相反。If the staff had been more careful, the mall would not be on fire now.过去时(were)would/could/should/might +v. (原)总结：虚拟语气在条件状语从句中的用法。过去完成时would/could/should/might + have + p.p.1. 过去时
2. should + v.
3. were to dowould/could/ should/ might + v. (原)二、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。1) 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动词一般用were) 。I wish I were as tall as you.I wish every day were my birthday.I wish/wished I hadn’t eaten so much watermelon.(2) 表示对过去情况的虚拟: 从句动词常用“had＋过去分词”。The party was terrible, I wish I had never gone to it.(3) 表示对将来的主观愿望: 从句动词形式为 “ would＋动词原形”。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(非动物名词除外)。
e.g. 但愿你立刻来。
I wish you would come soon.I wish it would rain tomorrow.2. 表示要求，命令，建议的虚拟语气。 常见动词： 一个坚持，两个命令，三个建议，四个要求。即:
insist
2. order, command
3. advise, suggest, propose
4. demand, require, request, desire这些动词后面的宾语从句要使用虚拟语气。
即从句中的动词使用should + 动词原形，
或者将should省略。e.g. 我们建议汤姆去休息一下。
他坚决要求我到场。We suggested that Tom (should) have a rest.He insisted that I (should) be present.The king ordered that the prisoners
(should) be killed the next day.They requested that we (should) send
them to work there.e.g. 国王命令囚犯明天要实施死刑。
他们要求我们派他们去那儿工作。 以上动词相应的名词构成的名词性从
句包括主语从句，表语从句和同位语从句
也要使用虚拟语气。从句中的动词形式一
样。即：(should)＋v.
order, advice, suggestion, proposal,
demand, request, desiree.g. It’s suggested that the plan be carried out.
My demand is that she should come to
see me once a week.
All of us are for the advice that the
chemical factory should be closed down. insist / suggest 不接虚拟的用法e.g. She insisted that she was right.
她坚持认为自己是对的。（坚持事实）
His uncle insists that he should not stay
in the hotel.
他的叔叔坚持要求他不要待在旅馆里。e.g. The look on his face suggested that
he was unhappy.
I suggested that the teachers’ wages
(should) be increased.3. It’s (about/high) time + (that)…should +v.过去时你该走了。我们该去睡觉了。It’s time that you went.
It’s time that you should go.It’s time that we went to bed.
It’s time that we should go to bed. (should不可省略)as if/as though由as if (as though)或even though (even though) 引导的状语从句表示比较或方式时, 从句谓语形式为动词的过去式 (be用were) 或 “had＋过去分词”。He behaves as if he owned the house.(But he doesn’t own it or probably doesn’t own it or we don’t know whether he owns it or not.)She talks about Rome as though she had been there herself.他那样对待我，好像我是陌生人似的。He treats me as if I were a stranger.注意： 如果表示的事情可能会发生，那么方式状语从句中的谓语动词可用陈述语气。Even if she were here, she could not solve the problem.4. would rather (that)现在：
过去：
将来：I would rather you paid me now. I would rather you had gone, too.Don’t come. I would rather you came
tomorrow.过去时过去时过去完成时根据语境或括号内的提示，用虚拟语气完成下列对话。1. A: Why doesn’t Sally get good grades?

古根海姆博物馆1929–30 At age sixty-six, the wealthy American industrialist Solomon R. Guggenheim begins to form a large collection of important modern paintings by artists such as Vasily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, and Marc Chagall. He is guided in this pursuit by a young German artist and theorist, Hilla Rebay (born Baroness Hilla Rebay von Ehrenwiesen). In July 1930, Rebay brings Guggenheim to Vasily Kandinsky’s Dessau studio, and Guggenheim purchases several of the artist’s paintings and works on paper; he will eventually acquire more than 150 works by Kandinsky.5th Avenue and 88th Street

Dear Committee members,
I wish to make a suggestion about starting a school art gallery. There are many students who are good at painting in our school. The school art gallery can provide these students with a very good platform to display their own paintings, and through the art gallery, other students may not only get a chance to admire the artistic achievements and the development of school culture but also can widen their knowledge. If you were to offer such an opportunity to the students who are fond of art, I believe they would give you a big surprise.
I would be more than happy if my suggestion could be considered.
Yours faithfully,
