一、考点讲解
虚拟语气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。虚拟语气主要用于if条件状语从句,也可用于主语从句、表语从句、宾语从句等。
1.与现在事实相反的虚拟语气,if从句中的谓语用过去式(be用were),主句用would/could/mightshould+动词原形。
eg:If I had enough money, I would buy myself a computer.
2.与将来事实相反的虚拟语气,从句谓语过去式(be用were)/should+动词原形/were to+动词原形,主句谓语would/could/might/should do.
eg:If I were to do the job, I would do it in a different way.
3.与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,主句谓语should/would/could/might+have+过去分词,If 条件从句的谓语形式had+过去分词词。
eg:If the weather had been nice yesterday,we would have gone for a picnic.
4.wish后的宾语从句用虚拟语气,从句的谓语形式虚拟情况
(1)与现在事实相反用:过去式(be用were)
(2)与过去事实相反had+过去分词
(3)与将来事实相反would/ could/might+动词原形
5.would rather后的宾语从句用虚拟语气虚拟情况表示现在或将来的愿望,从句的谓语形式过去式( be用were),表示过去的愿望,用had+过去分词
eg:I would rather you came next Saturday.
6.as if/as though引导的虚拟语气谓语的形式与wish后的宾语从句的谓语形式一致。
eg:It seems as if it were spring already.
7.if only 意为“要是……就好了”,其后虚拟语气的用法与wish后的宾语从句的谓语形式一致。
eg:If only I were 20 years younger!(与现在事实相反)
If only I had come to the party yesterday!(与过去事实相反)
If only I could fly to the moon one day.(与将来事实相反)
