虚拟语气讲义与练习

状语从句的虚拟语气

1. 以as if /as though引出的方式状语从句，如所述事情与实际不符，该用

虚拟语气，其谓语形式与wish后的宾语从句中的情况相同。

例：They talked as if I were a stranger

2.以in case, lest, for fear that引出的目的状语从句中，谓语动词多用

“should+ 动词原形”来表示虚拟(should可省略)

例：He took a taxi lest he should be late / Please remind me of it again tomorrow in case I forget.

其它句型中的虚拟语气

1．It is (high/about) time…后的从句中，谓语用过去时表示虚拟。

例：It’s high time (that) we left.

2．在would rather/ would sooner / would prefer/just as soon （宁愿）+宾语

从句中，表示与现在不符的事

2.1与现在事实或与将来事实相反

would rather he came to tomorrow than today. 约翰今天想去看我。我宁愿

他明天来看我而不是今天。(句中came不是表示过去而是表示将来)

We’d rather he paid us the money tomorrow. 我们宁愿他明天付给我们那

笔钱。

Don’t come tomorrow. I’d rather you came next weekend. 明天别来。我希

望你下周末来。

2.2与过去事实相反

I’d just as soon you had returned the book yesterday.

3 If only引出的感叹句

if only 表示“但愿”、“要是……就好了”。它的用法和“I wish…”基本相同，只是更富有感情色彩。

someone’s advice! =( I wish she had asked someone’s advice.)
