虚拟语气的用法总结
1.虚拟语气表达一种非真实的或不可能实现的情况,它是由谓语动词的形式来体现的。
If it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we will play football.(明天是有可能不下雨的)
If it didn’t rain tomorrow, we would play football.(已知明天肯定下雨)
2.虚拟语气主要分为三种类型:过去时态推移,(should) do虚拟和祝福语。
第一类型:过去时态推移
一、这一类型的虚拟语气可用于if引导的条件状语从句。
条件状语从句虚拟语气的三种基本形式

从句谓语动词
主句谓语动词
与现在相反
一般过去时/were
would/could/should/might do
与过去相反
过去完成时
would/could/should/might have done
与将来相反
一般过去时
would/could/should/might do
注:①从句中的be动词在正式场合下用were,但在口语中有时也用was;
②主句中的should通常只用于第一人称,其它的词不受人称限制;
③与过去相反时,从句中可以用could have done代替过去完成时;★
If you had told me about your plan, I would have discouraged you.
=If you _____________me about your plan, I would have discouraged you.
④与将来相反时,从句中可以用should do, were to do代替一般过去时;★
If he came tomorrow, I would talk to him about it.
=If he ___________ tomorrow, I would talk to him about it.
=If he ___________ tomorrow, I would talk to him about it.
⑤如果从句中出现should, were, had,可将它们提到开头,构成省略if的倒装句。★
If you were to pass the next exam, I would buy you a gift.
=____________ pass the next exam, I would buy you a gift.
If you had told me earlier, I would not have the problem now.
=____________ me earlier, I would not have the problem now.
If he should apologize to you, would you forgive him?
=____________to you, would you forgive him?
⑥有时主句和从句所指的时间不一致,这叫混合虚拟语气,它要求主句和从句的时态各自根据实际的时间确定。★
如果Tom明天要来我家(与将来相反),我早就应该知道了(与过去相反)。
If Tom ___________ (come) to my home tomorrow, I ____________ (hear) about it.
你要是听了我的建议(与过去相反),现在就不会遇那么多麻烦了(与现在相反)。
If you ________ (follow) my advice, now you _________ (not meet) so much trouble.
你要是去年没有违反校规(与过去相反),下个月你就可以毕业了(与将来相反)。
If you ______ (not break) the school rules, you _________ (leave) school next month.
⑦有时假设的条件不通过条件状语从句来表达,而是隐含在某些短语或连词的后面,这叫含蓄虚拟语气。这样的词有with, without, but for, otherwise/or, given等等。
1. With more money, I ________ (help) more people in need.
2. Without your help at those difficult times, I _________ (not succeed) anyway.
3. But for your advice beforehand, I ____________ (lose) the game.
4. I’m too busy now, otherwise/or I _________ (go) shopping with you.
5. Given one more chance, I __________(not make) this choice.

练习B:将第2~6句改为倒装句
2. _____________________, I would give him a severe punishment.

4. _____________________, I wouldn’t have missed the football game.
