动词wish后宾语从句中的虚拟语气

虚拟语气与习题

1.动词wish后宾语从句中的虚拟语气

1) 用wish表示现在的祝愿和抱歉。

其句子结构为：宾语从句的谓语be用were(was)，实义动词用过去式。例：I wish they were at home this time.

2) 用wish表示对过去事情的遗憾。

其句子结构为：宾语从句的谓语用过去完成时，或could+现在完成时。例：I wish I hadn' t hurt him so much。

3) 用wish表示对将来事情的愿望。其句子结构为宾语从句的结构，谓语为would/could/might+

动词原形。例：I wish I might be able to come tomorrow。

2. 用在一般虚拟条件句中的虚拟语气

1) 表示与现在、过去、将来事实相反的假设

①与现在事实相反的假设。

其句子结构为：

从句：if+主语+动词的过去式（be变were）+其他

主句：主语+would(should, could, might)+动词原形+其他

例：If I were you, I would go with him.

②与过去事实相反的假设。

其句子结构为：

从句：If+主语+过去完成时+其他

主句：主语+should(would, could, might)+现在完成时+其他。

例：If you had studied harder last term, you could have passed the exam.

③表示对将来事实实现的可能性不大的假设。

其句子结构为：

从句：If+主语+should (were to )+动词原形+其他

主句：主语+would (could, should, might)+动词原形

例：If he were to go tomorrow, he might tell you.

2.) 从句和主句要根据各自发所生的时间选用符合具体时间的虚拟语气形式

①从句表示过去，主句表示现在。

If they had started the early morning yesterday, they would be here now.

②从句表示将来，主句表示过去。

If I were not to make a preparation for my experiment this afternoon, I would have gone to see the film with you last night。

③从句表示过去，主句表示将来。

If we hadn' t made adequate preparations, we shouldn' t dare to do the experiment next week。

④从句表示将来，主句表示现在。

If we shouldn’t have an exam this afternoon, I would go shopping now.

3. 可以引起与事实相反的方式状语从句，用虚拟语气;由as if、as though引起的与事实相反的句子，不论主句的谓语是现在时或者说过去时，其谓语表示的时间概念和句子结构，都基本上与wish 后的宾语从句相同。例：

John pretends as if he didn' t know the thing at all, but in fact he knows it very well.(用过去式表示与现在事实相反的假设)

The old man looked at the picture, he felt as though he had gone back to time 20 years ago.（用过去完成式表示与过去相反的事实）

They talked and talked as if they would never meet again (would+动词原形，表示与将来事实相反)

4. 在表示建议、命令、要求、忠告等动词的后面，其宾语从句的谓语用“should+动词原形”表示虚拟语气

常用的此类动词有：

表示“要求”的：ask, desire, request, demand, require, beg

表示“提议、劝告、建议”的：move, propose, suggest, recommend, advise, vote

表示“决定、命令”的：decide, order

表示“主张”的：maintain, urge

表示“同意、坚持”的：consent, insist

例：The doctor suggested that he (should) try to lose his weight.

He insisted that we (should) tell him the news.

上述动词的名词形式，demand, desire, requirement, advice, order, decision, recommendation, suggestion, 以及necessity, preference, plan, motion, idea等名词，其后的表语从句或同位语从句，也用“should+动词原形”表示虚拟语气。现代英语，特别是美国英语，常省去“should”，例：

The advice is that we (should) leave at once.

The idea that we (should)visit Great Wall was warmly welcomed.

5. 在“It is (was)+形容词（或过去分词）+that……”结构中，主语从句的谓语也用“should+

原形动词“表虚拟语气

美国英语中省去should, 常用的形容词和过去分词有：

表示“要求”的：required, demanded, requested, desired。

表示“建议”的：suggested, recommended,

表示“迫切、紧近、重要”的：imperative, urgent, necessary, essential, important, vital 表示“适当、较好”的：appropriate, advisable, better, preferable

表示“可能”的：probable, possible

表示“命令”的：ordered

例：It was necessary that we (should) make everything ready ahead of time.

It is required that nobody (should)smoke here.

6. 由下列名词或短语引导，或含有某些词的从句中应用的虚拟语气

1) “Iest 以免、惟恐”引导的从句用“should+动词原形”。

He took a map with him lest he (should ) lose his wag there.

2) “whether不管、无论”引导的让步状语从句，有时用动词原形。

All things, whether you know or don' t know, exist in the world.

3) 用“would rather/had rather' would just as soon"表示“宁愿、但愿”，后面的宾语从句谓语用过去式或动词原形表示对将来的要求，用过去时表示对现在的愿望，用过去完成时表示对过去做的事的懊悔。

Don' t live in the world, I would rather( I would just as soon) you die.

I would rather you go tomorrow.

I would rather everything hadn' t happened in the past.

4) 用“had hoped”表示原来希望做到而实际上未能实现的事情，其宾语从句的谓语用“would+动词原形”。

I had hoped that she would go to the U.S. and study there, but she said she liked to stay in China.

5) 在“It is（high/about）time+that”引导的定语从句中，定语从句的主谓语用一般过去时，偶尔也可以用would(或should)+动词原形，或had rather (would rather)+动词原形。

It is high (about)time that we left/should leave/ had better leave/had rather leave/ were leaving.(注意与“This is the first/second…time”后从句中用现在完成时的区别。

6) 用“without/but for/in the absence of ”表示“要不是”，“如果没有”（相当于if it were not for…）表示条件时，句中一般用虚拟语气。（也可用陈述语气）

Without your help, I couldn' t finish my work on time.

In the absence of water and air, nothing could live

7) 由“providing (that)/ provided (that)/on condition that/ in order that”引导的条件从句或目的从句，根据情况，可用虚拟语气。（有时也可用陈述语气）

They are willing surrender provided they are given free passage.

8) 在if引导的虚拟条件句中，若有were, had, should, 在书面语中可省去if ,将were等提到主语前，形成倒装。

Should there be a good film tomorrow. I would go to the theatre with you.

Were it not for your help. I wouldn' t be succeed.

例1：Christie stared angrily at her boss and turned away, as though____ out of the office.

A. went

B. gone

C. to go

D. would go

[答案] C. to go

[注释] as though或as if引导的状语从句中, 从句主语和主句主语相同时, 从句中可省略主语和部分谓语, 如：1) She paused, as if to let the painful memories pass. (省略she wanted)2) From time to time Jason turned round as though searching for someone. (省略he were)3) The boy started, as if awakened from some dream. (省略he were)由此可见,本题中省略she wanted。[译文]克里斯蒂愤怒地盯了老板一眼并转过身去，似乎想走出办公室。

例2: I'd rather you____ by train, because I can't bear the idea of your being in an airplane in such bad weather.

A. would go

B. should go

C. went

D. had gone

[答案] C. went

[注释]主语+would rather后接宾语从句,从句中谓语须用虚拟语气：用一般过去时表示希望现在或将来实现的行为或状态,用过去完成时表示希望过去实现的行为或状态。本题中原因状语从句用一般现在时,暗示希望现在或将来发生的行为动作,故选C. went。

[译文]我宁愿你乘火车去，因为我无法想象在如此恶劣的天气你呆在飞机里。

例3: For the timely____ investment from the general public, our company would not be so thriving as it is.

A. Had it not been

B. Were it not

C. Be it not

D. Should it not be

[答案] A. Had it not been

[注释]本题测试交错时间的虚拟语气。从句是表示过去时间的虚拟条件，if省略，主语it与助动词had倒装。虚拟条件句也可写成这样：If it had nor been for the timely investment from the general public。这是重点句型，在各类测试中常考。

[译文]要不是老百姓的及时投资，我们的公司不会像现在这样兴旺。

例4: The millions of calculations involved, had they been done by hand, all practical value____ by the time they were finished.

A. could lose

B. would have lost

C. might lose

D. ought to have lost

[答案] B. would have lost

[注释]从句是省略if的虚拟条件句,谓语部分倒装,故主句谓语为would have+过去分词。

[译文]所涉及到的数百万次计算，如果用手工操作，到它们完成时已失去全部实用价值。

例5: A safety analysis____ the target as a potential danger. Unfortunately, it was never done.

A. would identify

B. will identify

C. would have identified

D. will have identified

[答案] C. would have identified

[注释]过去时间的虚拟语气表示过去要做而没有做的事。

[译文]一次安全隐患分析本来会确认这个目标是潜在的危险。不幸的是，这样的分析从未做过。

例6: In the past men generally preferred that their wives____ in the home.

A. worked

B. would work

C. work

D. were working

[答案] C. work

[注释]因为prefer(宁愿)是欲望动词,其后所接的宾语从句中谓语需用(should)+动词原形。

[译文]过去男子一般都愿意他们的妻子在家里工作。

例7: When Edison died, it was proposed that the American people____ all power in their homes, streets, and factories for several minutes in honor of this great man.

A. turn off

B. turned off

C. would turn off

D. had turned off

[答案] A. turn off

[注释] propose是欲望动词,后接的宾语从句或主语从句中谓语要用虚拟语气：should+动词原形或直接用动词原形。

[译文]爱迪生去世时，有人建议，为纪念这位伟人美国人民应关掉家中、街上和工厂里的全部电源几分钟。

例8: I apologize if I you, but I assure you____ it was unintentional.

A. offend

B. had offended

C. should have offended

D. might have offended

[答案] B. had offended

[注释]本题测试交错时间的虚拟条件句。was暗示，事情发生在过去，所以虚拟条件句中的谓语动词应该用表示过去时间的虚拟形式。

[译文]假如我曾经冒犯过你，我现在向你道歉，但我向你保证，这不是故意的。

例9: The board deemed it urgent that these files____ right away.

A. had to be printed

B. should have been printed

C. must be printed

D. should be printed

[答案] D. should be printed

[注释]因为urgent是欲望形容词,在句中作形式宾语it的补足语,所以宾语从句中的谓语需用虚拟语气:(should)+动词原形(主动态或被动态)。

[译文]董事会认为，迫在眉睫的是马上把这些档案印出来。

例10: There is a real possibility that these animals____ could be frightened, a sudden loud noise. A. being there B. should there be C. there was D. there having been [答案] B. should there be

[注释] should there be表示虚拟条件句中将来时间的谓语形式, if省略,所以should与there倒装。

[译文]要是有一声巨响，这些动物会受到惊吓，这是有现实可能性的。
