1、第五章 虚拟语气虚拟语气是指所说的话只是一种与事实相反的主观愿望、假想或建议等。虚拟语气可用于条件状语从句、主语从句、表语从句、同位语从句以及其他结构中。第一节 非真实条件状语从句中的虚拟语气非真实条件状语从句所表示的假设则是不可能或不大可能发生或实现的，句中的主句与从句都用虚拟语气。一、if 条件状语从句中的虚拟语气形式在 if 非真实虚拟条件状语从句中，主句和从句谓语动词主要有下面几种形式：假设类型 条件从句谓语动词形式 主句谓语动词形式与现在事实相反 动词过去时（be 用 were） Should(would, could, might)+动词原形与过去事实相反 had+过去分词 Sho

2、uld(would, could, might)+have+过去分词与将来事实可能相反动词过去时（或 should+动词原形或者 were to+动词原形）Should(would, could, might)+动词原形二、if 虚拟条件句的基本用法1、表示与现在事实相反的假设。在与现在事实相反的非真实条件句中，从句中的谓语动词用动词过去时或 were。主句中的谓语动词用 should(第一人称)，would（第二、第三人称） ，但在美国英语中，主句所有人称都用 would。主句中也可用“could 或 might+动词原形” 。例如：If I knew the fact now, I wou

3、ld tell you.假如我现在知道事情真相，我就告诉你了。If there were no gravity, we should not be able to walk.假如没有引力，我们就不可能行走。If there were life on Mars, such life forms would be unable to survive on earth.假如火星上有生命，这种生命形式在地球上无法生存的。2、表示与过去事实相反的假设。在与过去事实相反的非真实条件句中，从句中的谓语动词用“had+过去分词” 。主句中的谓语动词用“should(第一人称)或 would(第二、三人称 )h

4、ave+过去分词” 。在美国英语中，条件从句中的谓语动词常用“would have+过去分词” 。例如：I wouldnt have known when these were for if I hadnt been told.假如别人不告诉我，我就不知道这些东西是干什么用的。If the art dealer had had the money, he would have bought the painting.假如那位画商有这么一笔钱，他就买了那幅画。3、表示与将来事实相反的假设。表示与将来事实相反非真实条件句，从句中的谓语动词用“过去时或 should+动词原形”或“were to +

5、动词原形” 。主句中的谓语动词用“should( 第一人称) 或 would(第二、三人称)+动词原形” ，主句也可用“could 或 might+动词原形” 。例如：If bargains were prohibited by law our standard of living would immediately rise.假如廉价商品受到法律的禁止，我们的生活水平就会马上有所提高。If you were to see Jane, what would you tell her?假如你要去看珍妮，你会告诉她什么？This kind of world is hard and dangerou

6、s. But if you should succeed, you would become rich.这样的世界艰难危险，但是假如你成功的话，你会很富有的。三、省略 if 的虚拟句的用法在正式文体中，有时可把虚拟条件句中的连词 if 省去，而将 were, had, should 等助动词（不包括行为动词）提到主语前面，形成主谓倒装。如果句中没有 were, had 或 should时，既不能省略 it，也不能倒装。例如：Were I to meet him tomorrow (=if I were to meet him tomorrow), I should ask him about

7、it.要是我明天见到他，我就会问他这件事的。Had I had the money last year(=if I had had the money last year),I would have bought the house.如果我去年有了这笔钱，我就买那栋房子了。Should there be any trouble with the boiler, the automatic controlling unit would cut off the fuel oil supply. 假如锅炉出问题的话，自控装置会自动切断燃油的供给。四、混合型虚拟条件句通常情况下，在非真实条件句中的主句

8、和从句所指时间是一致的，主从句中的谓语动词要么都是与现在实事相反，要么都是与过去实事相反等。但有时也可能指不同的时间，这时要根据上下文的意思采用不同的谓语动词形式。例如：If I were you, I would have taken his advice.我要是你，我就采纳了他的建议。 （从句指现在，主句指过去）If her husband had not been killed in the war, she would not be helping others with the housework now.如果她的丈夫没有在战争中死去的话，她现在就不会帮助别人做家务了。 （从句指过去

9、，主句指现在）五、含蓄虚拟条件句有时假设的情况并不以条件从句表示出来，而是通过一个介词短语或其他方式表示。常用的词或短语有：without, but, for, but, that, otherwise, or, but 等。1.有时虚拟语气可用 but for, without, under, with 等介词短语引导。例如：Under such circumstances I would probably have done the same.在这样的情况下，我也可能做出同样的事情。With better equipment, we could have done it better.如果

10、有更好的仪器设备，我们也许会做得更好些。In the absence of the keeper, the house would have been burned down.如果没有管理员的话，那栋房子也许就被烧毁了。Without your help (=if we had not had your help),we could have succeeded.要是没有你的帮助，我们是不会成功的。But for electricity (=if there were no electricity), there would be no modern industry.要是没电，就不会有现代工

11、业。2、有时虚拟语气可以由 otherwise, but, or 来引导。要注意 otherwise 暗含的虚拟条件句中，前一部分是陈述语气，后一部分是虚拟语气。But 暗含的虚拟句中，前一部分是虚拟语气，后一部分是陈述语气。另外，or 也可以用来引导虚拟语气，or 引导的虚拟语气，前一部分是陈述语气，后一部分是虚拟语气。例如：I ran all the way to school, otherwise I would have been late.我一路跑到学校，不然就迟到了。He felt very tired yesterday, or he would have helped you.

12、他昨天很累，不然他会帮助你们的。I ought to have remembered to tell them the decision this morning, but I was so busy that I forgot to do so.我本来应该记得今天早上告诉他们那个决定，但是我太忙了，把这个事给忘了。3、but that 也可用来引导虚拟语气，连词 but that(要不是)引导的虚拟语气结构，从句部分是陈述语气，主句部分是虚拟语气。例如：But that the soldier caught her (if the soldier had not caught her), t

13、he little girl would have fallen into the river.要不是那位战士把小女孩拉住，她就掉到河里去了。But that he was short of money at the time, he would have come to help us.要不是他当时缺钱，他也许就来帮助我们了。4、分词短语不定式短语也可引导暗含虚拟条件句。例如：You would have laughed to see him jump aside.(=If you had seen him jump aside, you would have laughed. )你要是看到

14、他跳到一边的样子会大笑起来。This same thing, happening in wartime, would amount to disaster.(=If the same thing happened in wartime, it would amount to disaster.)同样的这种事情，如果发生在战时，就等于一场灾难。5、在某些暗含虚拟条件的简单句中，虚拟语气可通过上下文表现出来。谓语动词用should/would be 型和 should/would have been 型虚拟形式。Any man in his position would have done lik

15、e that.任何人处在他的位置都会那么做的。You should (ought to) have returned the book earlier.你本应该早点归还那本书的。六、虚拟语气与祈使语气、陈述语气的混合使用在有些情况下，条件句中的谓语由“should+动词原形”构成，这时主句的谓语动词既可以是虚拟语气或陈述语气，也可以是祈使语气。例如：If it should rain, the excursion will be put off.如果下雨，旅行就要延期了。Should you (if you should) change your mine, let us know.万一改变主

16、意，就通知我们。Even if (If) it should get stormy, I will go.即使会有暴风雨，我还是要去。七、 “if it were( had been)not for”句型中的虚拟语气虚拟语气也常用于“if it were( had been)not for”句型中，意为 “要不是”例如：If it were not for peace, we could not be living a happy life today.要不是有了和平，我们今天就不可能过上幸福的生活了。If it had not been for your advice, I would no

17、t have accepted the job.要不是你的建议，我可能就不会接受那个工作了。第二节 名词性从句中的虚拟语气在名词性从句中，是否用虚拟语气主要取决于有关的一些词。这些词常用来表示命令、建议、要求、愿望等。一、宾语从句中的虚拟语气1、某些动词后的宾语从句中要求用虚拟语气结构，用来表示建议、命令、要求等。其形式为（should）+ 动词原形。例如：The general directed that the troops (should )attack.将军命令部队进攻。They demanded that the company (should) make compensation
