虚拟条件句的三种基本类型: 与现在事实相反、 与过去事实相反、 与将来事实相 反。
条件句有真实条件句和非真实 (虚拟)条件句两种。真实条件句所表示的假设是有 可能发生的, 而非真实条件句则通常表示一种假想, 与事实相反或不大可能会发 生:
If I have time, I will go with them. 假若我有时间,我就同他们去。 (陈述语气) If I were you, I would go with them. 假若我是你,我就同他们去。 (虚拟语气) ▲ 与现在事实相反
若与现在事实相反,条件从句的谓语用过去式 “should (would, could, might)+ 动词原形 ”:
(be 通常用 were),主句谓语用
If I knew her number ,I could ring her up. 要是我知道她的电话号码,我就可 以给她打电话了。 (可惜我不知道 )
▲与过去事实相反
若与过去事实相反, 条件从句的谓语用过去完成时 (had+ 过去分词 ),主句谓语用 “should (would, could, might)+have+ 过去分词 ”: If I ’d left soo,neIr’d havbeeen on time. 要是我早点动身,我就准时到了。 (但 我动身太迟了 )
▲与将来事实相反
若与将来事实相反,条件从句的谓语用过去式
(be 通常用 were),主句谓语用
“should (would, could, might)+ 动词原形 ”: If I asked him ,I ’m sure he ’d help如us果. 我向他提出要求, 肯定他会帮助我们。 (不过我不打算这样做 ) 注:几点特别说明
① 主句谓语中的 should 主要用于第一人称后。 would, might, could 的大致区别 是:would 表示结果, might 表示可能性, could 表示能力、允许或可能性。比 较:
If you tried again ,you would succeed. 要是你再试一试, 你就会成功的。(would 表结果)
If you tried again , you might succeed. 要是你再试一试,你可能会成功的。 (might 表可能)
If you tried again ,you could succeed. 要是你再试一试, 你就能成功了。(could 表能力)
④ 对于与将来事实相反的情形,请注意以下几点:一是这里说的与将来事实相
反,实为对将来情况的推测; 二是此用法中的条件从句谓语除用过去式外, 有时 也用 “should+动词原形 ”表( 示可能性极小,常译为 “万一”或) “were to+动词原 形”表(示与将来事实相反的假设 );三是当条件从句使用 “should+动词原形 ”这样 的谓语时,主句谓语除可用 “should (would, could, might)+ 动词原形 ”这样的虚拟 语气外,也可用直陈语气或祈使语气: If it should rain tomorrow, don 使语气)
If I should see him, I 2、错综时间虚拟条件句
’t exp万ec一t m明e天. 下雨, 就不要等我了。 (祈
’ll te万ll h一im我.见到他,我就告诉他。(直陈语气)

所谓错综时间虚拟条件句即条件从句与主句所指时间不一致, 如从句指过去, 而 主句即指的是现在或将来, 此时应根据具体的语境情况, 结合上面提到的三种基 本类型对时态作相应的调 :整
If it had rained last night, the ground would be wet now. 现在地面就会是湿的。
You would be much better now if you had taken my advice. 话,你现在就会好多了。

7、as if (though) 从句用虚拟语气 ▲ 基本用法
以 as if (as though) 引导的方式状语从句或表语从句,有时用虚拟语气,若表示 与现在事实相反, 谓语动词用一般过去时; 若表示与过去事实相反, 用过去完成 时;表示将来的可能性不大,用 would (might, could)+ 动词原形: He acts as if he knew me. 他显得认识我似的。 They treat me as though I were a stranger. 他们待我如陌生人。 He talks as if he had been abroad. 他说起话来好像曾经出过国。
