虚拟语气全讲精炼

1. 英语中的三种语气
英语共有三种语气,陈述语气、祈使语气和虚拟语气。

陈述语气用来讲述事实,有肯定、否定、询问和感叹等形式,谓语动词有人称、时态和数的变化;

祈使语气用于提出请求、建议、劝告、命令和警告等,以动词原形起句,否定式句前加Don’t;

虚拟语气表示说话人所言内容不是事实,而是一种假设、愿望、建议、请求、命令或猜测,有时只是说话者的主观愿望,或表达他/她的强烈情感,谓语动词用特殊形式。
2. 非真实条件句的虚拟语气
条件从句 主句
过去 had done would/should/might/could/ought to have done
现在 did(be用were) would/should/might/could/ought to do
将来 1、did
2、should do
3、were to do would/should/might/could/ought to do
主句中五个虚拟引导词:

might, should, could, ought to, would
2.1. 与过去事实相反

2.3. 与将来事实相反
1). If it rained / should rain / were to rain tomorrow, we would have a rest.
2). If the sun were to rise from the west, I would marry you.
(注意:对将来虚拟的条件从句中,在实现的可能性方面过去式did最大,should do中等,were to do最小。如本句太阳没有可能从西方升起,所以本句用were to最恰当。)
3). If I were to meet her tomorrow, I would ask her about it.
4). If green plants should disappear some day, there would hardly be any life on the earth.
5). If I were to do the work, I would do it in a different way.

2). Were she here, she would support us.
3). Were you to go fishing with me, you would have a much happier time.
4). Were men angels, no government would be necessary. (如果人人都是天使,政府就没有必要了。)
5). Were she my daughter, I wouldn’t allow her to study abroad.

18). Be the weather what it may, I will leave tomorrow. (Whether the weather be what it may, …)
(注:例句13、14知识点见“八→5”。)
注意:在这一结构中,若条件句为否定句,not应被放在主语之后,而不能缩写成weren’t, shouldn’t或hadn’t而置于居首。如例15,16。
2.6. 含蓄型:
A. with :“要是有,如果有”,表示与现在事实相反的假设。

9). I wish I had never met him.
10). I wish you hadn’t spent so much money.
3.2. would rather (that)…
本结构从句是一般过去时时,表示一个对现在或将来的愿望;是过去完成时时,表示对过去已发事件的一种妄想,表明说话者宁愿某人做或没有做某事,实际上却恰恰相反。具有相同用法的结构还有would sooner, would as soon, would just as soon,它们可替换would rather。

3.3. 表示愿望、建议、请求、命令等含义的动词

advise忠告,建议 ask要求 command命令 decide决定
demand要求 desire希望,可望 determine决定 insist坚持
order命令 prefer宁愿 promise允诺 propose提议
recommend推荐,劝告 request要求 require要求 suggest建议
3.3.2. 巧记宾从用虚拟语气的动词

三建议 → suggest, advise, recommend 四要求 → require, request, demand, desire
方法二、DISCO (迪斯科)
D→ demand I → insist S → suggest
C → command O → order

注:以上各例句宾语从句中谓语动词前统统省略了should。
3.3.4、suggest与insist之例外

基本结构:
It be /seem + (表示愿望、建议、命令、要求、意志、惊讶、不满、遗憾等意义的) 形容词/过去分词/名词 + that + 主语+ (should)+动词原形.
在本结构中it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的that从句, 从句中谓语动词的形式为should do, should 可以省略。

注意:
a. 在It is amazing/surprising/astonishing/strange/incrediable/a pity/a shame that ... 结构中,that虚拟从句表示说话人的惊讶、懊悔、失望等强烈的情感,含有“竟然, 居然”的意思,表明所发生的事情非常出人意料。如上面例句9-14。再如:
15). It’s a pity that he should miss the lecture. (真遗憾,他竟然错过了这次演讲。)
16). It’s a pity that he should turn down my offer. (真遗憾,他竟然拒绝了我的提议。)

b. It is (high , about) time + that +主语 + should do.

注:句型It’s time to do sth. / It’s time for sb. to do sth. / It’s time for sth. 表示“该做某事了,是做某事的时候了”, 没有“目前该做却还没有做的事”的含义。
8. 其它类虚拟语气
8.1. as if / though
属于时态型虚拟语气,其动词结构与wish之后的虚拟语气相同。
过去 had done
现在 did(be用were)
将来 were to/should/could/might/would do
1). She speaks English very fluently as though she were born in England. (实际上不是)

5). I remember the whole thing as if it had happened yesterday.
6). It would be an excellent rule to live each day as if we should die tomorrow.
注:以上例句1-6 as if /though 引导的是方式状语从句;但如果主句的动词是系动词be, feel, look, seem, sound, appear等时,as if / though 引导的便是表语从句了。如下列例句7-11。
7). Mary felt as though Mr. Wang were her father.
8). When a pencil is partly in a glass of water, it looks as if it were broken.
9). He appeared as if he had known nothing about it. (他看上去对此一无所知。)

注意:as if / though之后即可接虚拟语气,又可接陈述语气,试比较:

12). It looks as if it is going to rain. (陈述语气,实际上确实会下雨。)
8.2. even if / though引导的让步状语从句
属于时态型虚拟语气,说的不一定是事实,往往表示一种虚拟的让步,其时态结构与if 引导的虚拟条件句一样。
过去 had done
现在 did(be用were)
将来 1、did;2、should do;3、were to do
1). Even if I were rich, I would work.

6). Even though you had enough money, you could not buy the lost time.

8). Even if I become a millionaire, I shall always be a socialist. (陈述语气)
8.3. if only(=How I wish)引导的虚拟语气

2). If only I had not cheated in the examination!
3). If only we had done as we were told! This would never have happened.
4). If only I were ten years younger!
5). If only you had told me in advance!
6). If only I had not married before I met you!
7). If only you had arrived a little earlier!
注意: if only与only if的区别:only if中only只起到加强、突出的作用,if的词义并为改变,意为“只有在……条件下”,表示条件的唯一性。如:
8). Only if you help me can I succeed.
9). I will go home only if you go with me.
10). ---Will you come to Birthday Party tomorrow? --- Only if you promise not to invite Tom.
8.4. lest, for fear that引导的目的状语从句
基本结构:
lest(for fear that) + 主语 + should + 动词原形


隶属should型虚拟语气,其后动词用should + 动词原形,should可换为might, would, 也可以省略,意味“以免……, 为了……不……”。
1). She took a taxi to the station lest she should miss the train.
(= She took a taxi to the station so that(或in order that) she should not miss the train.
= She took a taxi to the station in case she should miss the train.)

9). We must not promise what we should not, lest we be called on to perform what we cannot.
注:以上例句1-9中lest都可被for fear that替换。
8.5. whether… or … 引导的让步状语从句
意为“不管/不论是……还是……”,结构为:
whether +主语 + be + 表语一 + or + 表语二,…
1). Whether he be rich or poor, I will marry him. (可省略whether, 此时要到装:Be he rich or poor, ...)
2). Whether it be new or old, it is my bike. (= Be it new or old, it is my bike.)
3). Be he friend or foe, the law regards him as criminal. (=Whether he be friend or foe, …)

7). She can translate all these books into Chinese, be they English, French or Latin.
8). Whether this criticism be wise or foolish, important or insignificant, it is at least natured.
(不管这批评是明智的还是愚蠢的,重要的还是无关紧要的,至少它是善意的。)
8.6. 表示祝愿、礼貌的虚拟语气
8.6.1. Long live Chairman Mao! ( live不加-s)
God bless you! ( bless不加-es)
8.6.2. May sb. do sth! & Wish sb. sth!
1). May you succeed! Wish you success!
2). May you have a good trip. Wish you a good trip.
3). May you have a happy birthday. Wish you a good birthday.
4). May you have a happy life. Wish you a happy life.
5). May the spirit of Lei Feng live on forever! (愿雷锋精神永存!)
8.6.3. 有时出于礼貌,使语气婉转,也可避免强加于人而使用虚拟语气,用来表示请求对方做某事。
1). I was wondering if you could lend me a hand.
2). I would be grateful if you could lend me some money.
3). I would really appreciate if you took a message for her.
4). I would be most honored if you taught me how to start the machine.
5). It would be nice if you helped me a bit with the housework.
8.7. 含有责备语气的虚拟语气:情态动词+have done
need have done →本有必要做却未作 needn’t have done →本不必做却做
should/ought to have done →本该做却未做 shouldn’t have done →本不该做却做
could have done →本能做却未做 couldn't have done →本不能做却做
但应注意:must have done则表示对过去的推测。
1). I could have provided you with the funds. Why didn’t you ask me?
2). The weather turned out to be fine yesterday. I needn't have taken the trouble to carry my umbrella with me. (06年江西)
3). Mr. White should have arrived at 8:30 for the meeting, but he didn’t show up. (04年全国一高考)
4). —I’ll tell Mary about her new job tomorrow. —You should have told her last week. (04年福建高考)
5). Had it not been for the traffic jam, I should have covered fifty miles.
6). She ought to have had more consideration for you. (他本应更多地为你着想。)
7). I don’t think you ought to have done that. (我认为你本不该做那种事。)
8). They oughtn’t to have let you out of hospital so soon. (他们本来不应该让你这么快出院。)
9). You needn’t have come over yourself. You could have given me a ring instead.
(你本不必亲自过来,你本可以给我打个电话就行了。)
10). You needn't have told him the news; he knew it already.
11). You shouldn't have criticized him sternly to his face. (你不应该当面这么严厉地批评他。)
8.8. 关注but
在虚拟语气中,but分句所起的作用相当于if从句的反义句,点出现在或过去的某一事实,故用陈述语气。(but I wish 除外)
1). I would have invited her to the party but I didn’t know her well. (but… = if I had known her well)
2). I would have had a rest but I had so much work to do. (but…= if I hadn’t had so much work to do)
3). She would have come to see you but she was ill that day. (but… = if she hadn’t been ill that day)
4). I should have gone to the party but I was not invited. (but… = if I had been invited)
5). I have no Chinese-English dictionary, but I wish I had one.
6). I have never been to the moon, but I wish I had.
9. 虚拟语气顿悟
9.1. 通览虚拟语气,大致可以将其分为“时态型”和“should + 动原型”两类,表析如下:





1.if 引导的非真实条件句 见上述二
2.wish之后的宾语从句 见上述三---1
3.would rather/sooner/as soon/just as soon之后的宾语从句 见上述三---2
4.as if/rough 引导的方式状语从句 见上述八---1
5.even if/though 引导的让步状语从句 见上述八---2
6.if only 引导的感叹句 见上述八---3
Should

动词原形
1.“一坚二命三建四要”之后的宾语从句(should可省略) 见上述三---3
2.主语从句(should可省略) 见上述四
3.表语从句(should可省略) 见上述五
4.同位语从句(should可省略) 见上述六
5.定语从句(should不可省略, should do可改为did) 见上述七
6.lest(for fear that)引导的目的状语从句 见上述八---4
7.whether it/he (may) be … or … 见上述八---5
9.2. 确定时间,选择动词形式
在时态型虚拟语气中,确定是对过去、现在还是将来的虚拟,是确定动词形式的关键,因为虚拟动词的“式”是由动作所发生的“时”决定的。
动作发生的“时” 虚拟动词的“式”
从句 主句
过去 had done would/should/might/could/ought to have done
现在 did(be用were) would/should/might/could/ought to do
将来 1、did 2、should do
3、were to do would/should/might/could/ought to do
请看如下例题:
例1. A. If he _______, he _______that food. B. Luckily he was sent to the hospital immediately.
a. was warned; would not take b. had been warned; would not have taken
c. would be warned; had not taken d. would have been warned; had not taken
从B的应答分析,A所说的事情发生在过去,表明的当时没有人警告他,结果他吃了那种事物。实话反说就成了虚拟语气,主句和从句都是对过去的虚拟,从句用had done, 主句用would have done, 所以b是正确答案。
例2. If the sun _______ rise in the west, my love for you would be unchanged.
a. should b. were c. were to d. shall
题干在说 “要想让我对你的爱不改变,除非有一天太阳打西边出来”,主句和从句都是对将来的虚拟,虚拟条件句“太阳打西边出”根本就不可能实现,所以用were to do,选择c。
例3. If he _______ to the teacher attentively, he _______ the answer to the problem now.
a. had listened, would have known b. listened, would know
c. listened, would have known d. had listened, would know
解读题干可知,“他”现在不知道答案是因为之前没有认真听讲,一个是对现在的虚拟,一个是对过去的虚拟,是混合型虚拟语气。
