虚拟语气
概念 虚拟语气是动词的一种特殊形式,用来表达说话人的愿望,意图,建议,惊奇,设想等未能实现的情况,以及在说话人看来实现可能性很小的情况
虚拟语气受时间的制约,分成以下三种句式:
1)与现在事实相反 2)与过去事实相反 3)与将来事实相反
if引导的虚拟语气
与现在事实相反 might 动词过去式 wouldIf + 主语 were , 主语 + could + V
与过去事实相反 might wouldIf + 主语+ , 主语 + could +
与将来事实相反 动词过去式 mightIf + 主语 , 主语 + would + V Could
注意:1. 虚拟语气中助动词be 一律用were, 不用was
2. 在与将来事实相反的虚拟语气中,“if + 主语 + should + V + ……”表可能的假设

注意:“if”虚拟语气倒装形式的使用:
如果“if”从句中含有“were, had”或“should”时, 则可省略连词“if”,而把“were,had”或“should”移至主语之前
例:if I were you, I would work hard == were I you, I would ………
If they had not come last time, we would have done…….==
If it should rain tomorrow, she would…….==
某些动词后并与从句中的虚拟语气
1. 表示要求、建议或命令、坚持如suggest, order, request, advise, insist, demand, command等动词,后跟宾语从句时,常用should + V,其中should可以省略
注意:suggest表示“表明,暗示”,insist表示“坚持说”时,后面从句应用真实语气
2. 名词suggestion, proposal, order, advice, demand等后的表语从句和同位语,常用虚拟语气,should + V, should可以省略
其他形式的虚拟语气
It’s + time + that从句(虚拟语气)
high time 过去时/ should + V(should不可省)
about time
what if……… (如果…..该怎么办?)
当主语从句表示惊奇、惋惜、怀疑的时候应用虚拟语气,且用(should)+ V的结构。常用结构为:it’s strange/ necessary/ important/ a pity/ suggested/ vital/ essential…..that……
wish + 宾语从句
V-ed 表示与现在事实相反
wish + 主语 + 过去完成时 过去事实相反
could/ would/ might + V 将来事实相反
as if, as though表不可能,不真实情况时的虚拟语气
例:a. They look rahter puzzled, as if/ though they didn’t know 表示与现在事实相反
b. You look as if/ though you had seen a ghost 过去事实相反
c. He is very happy as if/ though the could win the game. 将来事实相反
6. would rather在虚拟语气中的用法
V-ed 表示与现在或将来事实相反
Would rather + 主语 +
过去完成时 表示与过去事实相反
if only(要是….就好了)后引起的感叹句中,虚拟语气的用法与if的虚拟语气结构相同
