一、概念

过去将来时的动词表示对过去某一时间来说将要发生的动作或呈现的状态。这个时态常用在宾语从句中。

二、过去将来时用法

1. should/would + 动词原形

例如：

I supposed i should make a appointment with yu for date.

He said he would be there before Monday.

他说他星期一以前将在那里。( be 动词肯定式)

We hoped she should not go the next week.

我们希望下星期她不去。( do 动词的否定式)

注意：这个时态是一个相对的时态，立足于过去某时，从过去的观点看未来。

在一定的语境中也可于其他从句或句子中。

例如：

It was a problem whether he would support us. 他是否会支持我们还是一个问题。

It was seven o’clock. The sun would soon set. 这时是七点钟，太阳即将落山。

2. was/were going + 动词不定式

过去将来时的这种表达形式可以表示过去曾经打算或计划准备要做的事。

例如：

I supposed that i was going to make a appointment

They told me that they were going to have a picnic. 他们告诉我他们将要举行一次野餐。

We were going to have a meeting. 我们曾经打算开个会。

过去将来时的这种形式可以表示过去将要发生或很有可能发生的事，但未实现的动作。

I was just going to ring him up when she came.

我刚要给他打电话，她就来了。( 电话没打成)

有时也用was/were + coming 表示过去将来时。

例如：

She didn't know when they were coming again. 她不知道他们时候会再来。

3. was/were about + 动词不定式表示在过去看来正要做某事。

例如：
