虚拟语气

1）概念

　　虚拟语气用来表示说话人的主观愿望或假想，所说的是一个条件，不一定是事实，或与事实相反。

2）在条件句中的应用

　　条件句可分为两类，一类为真实条件句，一类为非真实条件句。非真实条件句表示的是假设的或实际可能性不大的情况，故采用虚拟语气。

真实条件句

　　真实条件句用于陈述语气，假设的情况可能发生，其中 if 是如果的意思。

　　时态关系

句型：条件从句　　　主句

　　一般现在时　　 shall/will + 动词原形

If he comes, he will bring his violin.

［典型例题］

The volleyball match will be put off if it ___.　

A. will rain B. rains C. rained D. is rained

答案B。真实条件句主句为将来时，从句用一般现在时。

注意：

1）在真实条件句中，主句不能用be going to表示将来，该用shall, will。

(错) If you leave now, you are never going to regret it.

(对) If you leave now, you will never regret it.

2）表示真理时，主句谓语动词便不用shall (will) +动词原形，而直接用一般现在时的动词形式。

非真实条件句

1）时态：可以表示过去，现在和将来的情况。它的基本特点是时态退后。

a. 同现在事实相反的假设。

句型：条件从句　　　　　主句

　　　　一般过去时　　　should( would) +动词原形

　 If they were here, they would help you.

b. 表示与过去事实相反的假设。

句型：条件从句　　　　　主句　　　　　

　　　过去完成时　　　 should(would) have+ 过去分词

　 If she had worked harder, she would have succeeded.　　

　 The rice would not have been burnt if you had been more careful.　

　 If my lawyer had been here last Saturday, he would have prevented me from going.

　 If he had come yesterday, I should / would have told him about it.

　含义：He did not come yesterday, so I did not tell him about it.

　 If he had not been ill and missed many classes, he would have made greater progress.

　含义： He was ill and missed many lessons, so he did not make greater progress.　

c. 表示对将来的假想

　句型：　条件从句　　　　　　主句

　　　　一般过去时　　　　　 should+ 动词原形

　　　　 were+ 不定式　　　　 would + 动词原形

　　　　 should+ 动词原形

　 If you succeeded, everything would be all right.

　 If you should succeed, everything would be all right.

　 If you were to succeed, everything would be all right.

混合条件句

　主句与从句的动作发生在不同的时间，这时主，从句谓语动词的虚拟语气形式因时间不同而不同，这叫做混合条件句。

　　If you had asked him yesterday, you would know what to do now.

　（从句与过去事实相反，主句与现在事实相反。）

　　If it had rained last night (过去), it would be very cold today (现在).

虚拟条件句的倒装

　　虚拟条件句的从句部分如果含有were, should或had, 可将if省略，再把were, should或had 移到从句句首，实行倒装。

　 Were they here now, they could help us.

　 =If they were here now, they could help us.

　 Had you come earlier, you would have met him

　 =If you had come earlier, you would have met him.　

　 Should it rain, the crops would be saved.

　 =Were it to rain, the crops would be saved.

注意：在虚拟语气的从句中，动词“be”的过去时态一律用“were”，不用was，即在从句中be用were代替。

　 If I were you, I would go to look for him.

　　如果我是你，就会去找他。

　 If he were here, everything would be all right.

　　如果他在这儿，一切都会好的。

［典型例题］

_____ to do the work, I should do it some other day.

A. If were I B. I were C. Were I D. Was I

答案C。在虚拟条件状语中如果有were, should, had这三个词，通常将if省略，主语提前, 变成 were, should, had +主语的形式。但要注意，在虚拟条件状语从句中，省略连词的倒装形式的句首不能用动词的缩略形式。如我们可说 Were I not to do，而不能说 Weren’t I to do.

特殊的虚拟语气词：should

1）It is demanded / necessary / a pity + that…结构中的主语从句的谓语动词要用should 加动词原形， should 可省略。

句型：

　　　　(1)suggested

It is　　(2)important　　　　that…+ (should) do

　　　　(3) a pity

(1)suggested, ordered, proposed, required, demanded, requested, insisted； + (should) do

(2)important, necessary, natural, strange

a pity,　 a shame,　 no wonder

(3)It is suggested that we (should) hold a meeting next week.

It is necessary that he (should) come to our meeting tomorrow.

2）在宾语从句中的应用

　　在表示命令、建议、要求等一类动词后面的从句中。

order, suggest, propose, require, demand, request, insist, command, insist + (should) do

　 I suggest that we (should) hold a meeting next week.

　 He insisted that he (should ) be sent there.

　注意：如suggest, insist不表示“建议”或“坚持要某人做某事时”，即它们用于其本意“暗示、表明”、“坚持认为”时，宾语从句用陈述语气。

　 The guard at gate insisted that everybody obey the rules.　

　判断改错：

　（错）　You pale face suggests that you (should) be ill.

　 (对)　 Your pale face suggests that you are ill.

　 (错)　 I insisted that you ( should) be wrong.

　 (对)　 I insisted that you were wrong.

3）在表语从句，同位语从句中的应用

　　在suggestion, proposal, idea, plan, order, advice等名词后面的表语从句、同位语从句中要用虚拟语气，即（should）+动词原形。

　　My idea is that we (should) get more people to attend the conference.

　　I make a proposal that we (should) hold a meeting next week.

wish的用法

1）用于wish后面的从句，表示与事实相反的情况，或表示将来不太可能实现的愿望。其宾语从句的动词形式为：

　　　　　　　　　　　　　真实状况　wish后

从句动作先于主句动词动作　　现在时　　过去时

（be的过去式为 were）　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

从句动作与主句动作同时发生　过去时　　过去完成时

（had + 过去分词）　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

将来不大可能实现的愿望　　　将来时　would/could +

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　动词原形　　　　

　 I wish I were as tall as you.　我希望和你一样高。

　 He wished he hadn't said that. 他希望他没讲那样的话。

　 I wish it would rain tomorrow. 我希望明天下雨就好了。

2）wish to do表达法。

wish sb / sth to do

　 I wish to see the manager. = I want to see the manager.

　 I wish the manager to be informed at once. (= I want the manager to be informed at once.)

比较if only与only if

　　only if表示“只有”；if only则表示“如果……就好了”。if only也可用于陈述语气。

　　I wake up only if the alarm clock rings. 只有闹钟响了，我才会醒。

　　If only the alarm clock had rung.　　　当时闹钟响了，就好了。

　　If only he comes early.　　　　　　　但愿他早点回来。

It is (high) time that

　 It is (high) time that 后面的从句谓语动词要用过去式或用should加动词原形，但should不可省略。

　 It is time that the children went to bed.

　 It is high time that the children should go to bed.

need “不必做”和“本不该做”

　 didn't need to do表示：过去不必做某事, 事实上也没做。.

　 needn't have done表示：过去不必做某事, 但事实上做了。

John went to the station with the car to meet Mary, so she didn't need to walk back home.

约翰开车去车站接玛丽，所以她不必步行回家了。

John went to the station with the car to meet Mary, so she needn't have walked back home.

约翰开车去车站接玛丽，所以她本不必步行回家。 (Mary步行回家，没有遇上John的车。)

［典型例题］

　 There was plenty of time. She ___.

A. mustn't have hurried B. couldn't have hurried

C. must not hurry D. needn't have hurried

答案D。needn't have done意为“本不必”，即已经做了某事，而实际上不必要。

mustn't have done 用法不正确，对过去发生的事情进行否定性推断应为couldn't have done, “不可能已经”。 must not do 不可以（用于一般现在时）。

一般现在时的用法

1)经常性或习惯性的动作，常与表示频度的时间状语连用。

　时间状语： every…, sometimes,　at…, on Sunday

　 I leave home for school at 7 every morning.

2) 客观真理，客观存在，科学事实。

　 The earth moves around the sun.

　 Shanghai lies in the east of China.

3) 表示格言或警句中。

　 Pride goes before a fall.　骄者必败。

　注意：此用法如果出现在宾语从句中，即使主句是过去时，从句谓语也要用一般现在时。

例：Columbus proved that the earth is round.

4) 现在时刻的状态、能力、性格、个性。

　 I don't want so much.

　 Ann Wang writes good English but does not speak well.

比较：Now I put the sugar in the cup.

　　I am doing my homework now.

第一句用一般现在时，用于操作演示或指导说明的示范性动作，表示言行的瞬间动作。再如：Now watch me, I switch on the current and stand back. 第二句中的now是进行时的标志，表示正在进行的动作的客观状况，所以后句用一般现在时。

ABC News anchor (节目主持人) Peter Jennings died on Aug. 7, 2005 at home in New York after a brief battle with lung cancer. ABC News anchors said they hope if anything good can be taken from Jennings’ death, it is a great awareness of the dangers of smoking.

“I want to give a message,” Barbara Walters said. “If you have kids who are smoking, tell them that we lost Peter.”

Lung cancer is the worst killer in America, taking more lives each year than any other cancer, according to the America Cancer Society. About 160,440 Americans die each year of cancer, making up 28 percent of all cancer deaths. More than 87 percent of lung cancers are smoking related.

Dr. Derek Raghavan, director of the Cleveland Clinic’s Taussing Cancer Center, said that once a person stops smoking, he starts getting better. Three to five years after quitting, the possibility of getting lung cancer is reduced by half.

Warning signs of lung cancer can also be mixed with symptoms connected with long-term smoking. The three main warning signs are an increase of coughing that doesn’t clear up, coughing up blood and sharp chest pains.

People with those symptoms should see a doctor. Raghavan said there have been promising developments in the treatment of lung cancer, including uses of radiation and surgery and drugs. “But the fact is that stopping smoking is the most important thing we can do,” Raghavan said. “There is no treatment that even comes close.”

56. Anchor Peter Jennings died of lung cancer which was possibly caused by _____.

A. his bad eating habit B. overmuch work C. long-term smoking D. the old age

57. The first paragraph mentioned Peter Jennings’ death in order to _____.

A. make him the main character of the passage

B. warn the smokers of the danger of smoking

C. introduce the topic to be talked about

D. make him better-known than before

58. The underlined word “quitting” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to _____.

A. doing more exercise B. giving up smoking

C. getting over lung cancer D. staying in hospital

59. To fight against lung cancer, what matters much to smokers is _____.

A. to receive the treatment of lung cancer B. to do exercise regularly

C. to see a doctor in time D. to stop smoking

Letter to Editor of TV Weekly

Dear Sir/Madam,

I read Alison Burnham’s review of When We were 12, and I do not agree with her. I thought the programme was wonderful — I found the old news pictures really interesting — they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.

The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood. For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s). My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket. I held out my hand with the money in it — one big coin on top of one little coin. The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey. I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything. When school finished for the day, I couldn’t catch the bus home — I had to walk. As a grown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I’m able to take control of the situation.

I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme. Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so-called “reality programmes”.I appreciate (欣赏) the human story that can make me laugh and cry.

Yours faithfully,
Chris Daniels

60. What is Chris Daniels’ purpose of writing this letter?

A. To persuade Bret Chrysler to turn away from quiz shows.

B. To entertain other readers with old news pictures.

C. To express his appreciation of the programme.

D. To have his story told on the programme.

61. Chris Daniels tells the story about the bus ticket to _____.

A. describe how painful his early experience was

B. draw a direct response from Alison Burnham

C. show how the programme made him think

D. teach the readers of TV Weekly a lesson

62. According to the passage, Chris Daniels had to walk home because _____.

A. he hadn’t got a return ticket B. he had lost his bus ticket

C. he didn’t like big crowds D. he missed the bus home

63. What does Chris Daniels now think about his experience on the bus?

A. He should have told the conductor then. B. He should have been well treated.

C. He regrets going to school alone. D. He wishes it hadn’t happened.

You either have it or you don’t — a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the

next street?

Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.

“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”

Jim Martland also emphasizes (强调) that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:

●If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.

●If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.

●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.

Now you need never get lost again!

64. Scientists believe that _____.

A. some babies are born with a sense of direction

B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older

C. people never lose their sense of direction

D. everybody owns a sense of direction from birth
65. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?

A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.

B. They should never be allowed out alone if they do not have a sense of direction.

C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.

D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.
66. If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should _____.

A. tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolen

B. draw a map of the route to help remember where it is

C. avoid taking the same route when you come back to it

D. remember something easily recognizable (noticeable) on the route
67. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to _____.

A. ask policemen for directions

B. use walls, stream, and streets to guide yourself

C. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairs

D. count the number of landmarks that you see

My grandmother became a widow in 1970. Shortly after that , we went to the animal shelter to pick out a puppy to keep her company. Grandma and Penny, the dog, quickly became very fond of each other, and that fondness grew much stronger about three years later when Grandma had a stroke. Grandma could no longer work, so when she came home from the hospital, she and Penny were constant companions. As the years passed, Grandma and Penny became inseparable. If Grandma went to take her nap , Penny walked along beside her and stayed by her side until she awoke. As Penny aged, she could no longer jump up on the bed to lie next to Grandma, so she laid on the rug beside the bed.

The time came when both my grand mother and Penny’s health were failing fast. Penny couldn’t get around very well, and Grandma had been hospitalized several times. During these times, Penny sat at the window looking out for the car bringing Grandma home and would excitedly wait at the door when Grandma came through it. Each homecoming was a grand reunion between the two.

On Christmas Day in 1985, Grandma was again taken to the hospital. Penny, as usual, sat watching out the window for the car bringing Grandma home. Two mornings later when the dog woke up, she couldn’t seem to work out the stiffness in her hips as she usually did. The same morning, she began having seizures(抽畜). At age fifteen , we knew it was time. My mother and aunt took her to the veterinarian(兽医) and stayed with her until the end.

We had to tell her about it while she was in the hospital because when we pulled up at the house, the first thing Grandma would look for was her beloved Penny watching out the window and then happily greeting her at the door. Grandma shed some tears but said she knew that it had to be done so Penny wouldn’t suffer.

That night while still in the hospital, Grandma had a massive heart attack. After fifteen years of loving companionship, Grandma and Penny passed away within a few hours of each other. God had it all worked out——Penny was waiting at door when Grandma came Home.

One possible version:

At present, playing computer games is becoming more and more popular with people, especially with school students. Take Tom and Mike for example. Every day after school, they go to the computer bar to play games till late at night, and they often have a competition to see who wins more scores.

Once, Tom didn’t go home until eleven o’clock at night. When he got home, he told his mother that he had been going over his lessons. Poor mom！She believed him and cooked two eggs for him. “Take more care of yourself as you work too hard, my dear son.” But Tom’s face turned red at his mother’s praise. Later he made up his mind to work really hard.
