二、虛擬語氣 英語中的虛擬語氣有4種，一種是條件句中的虛擬語氣，一種是含蓄條件句中的虛擬語氣，一種是名詞性從句中的虛擬語氣，還有一種是狀語從句中的虛擬語氣。其中虛擬時態(tài)的運用很大程度上和其所處的句型有關(guān)。虛擬語氣在三級考試中是一個比較重要的語法。下面我們也分四部分來看一下三級考試中虛擬語氣的運用。

　　1.對于虛擬條件句中時態(tài)的運用，首先應(yīng)該熟記主從句動詞與不同事實相反時的時態(tài)運用規(guī)則。解題時根據(jù)句子所表達的時間概念確定與什么事實相反，然后采用相應(yīng)的時態(tài)。

　?、?如果與過去事實相反，從句中用過去完成時，主句中用would/should/could/might + have done的形式，如1）、3）、6）和7）。

　　1）If a better material______,the strength of the part would have been increased.（1992.6）

　　A.had been used

　　B.had been using

　　C.being used

　　D.using

　　**：A

　　3）______ you were busy, I wouldn't have bothered you with my question.（1996.6）

　　A.If I realized

　　B.Had I realized

　　C.Did I realize that

　　D.As I realized

　　**：B

　　注意：虛擬條件句的從句部分如果含有were, should, 或had, 可將if省略，再把were, should或had 移到從句句首，實行倒裝。

　　6）Had the weather been good,the children ______ out for a work.（2001.6）

　　A.had gone

　　B.could have gone

　　C.would go

　　D.went

　　**：B

　　7）______ the advice of his friends, he would not have suffered such a heavy loss in his business.（2004.4）

　　A.If he took

　　B.If he should take

　　C.Were he to take

　　D.Had he taken

　　**：D

　?、?如果與現(xiàn)在事實相反，從句中用一般過去時，主句中用would/could/might/should + 原形動詞，如5），表示與正在進行的事實相反用would/might/could/should + be doing的結(jié)構(gòu)。

　　5）Do you think there would be less conflict in the world if all people ______the same language?

　　A.spoke

　　B.speak

　　C.had spoken

　　D.will speak

　　**：A

　?、?如果表示將來不可能實現(xiàn)的事情，從句中用過去時，或were to / should + 原形動詞，以上題4）表示的就屬于這種情況。

　　4）______,I should ask them some questions.（1997.6）

　　A.Should they come to us

　　B.If they come to us

　　C.Were they come to us

　　D.Had they come to us

　　**：A

　　2.虛擬條件句有單一條件句，也有混合虛擬條件句，所以不能只根據(jù)從句與某一事實相反來判斷主句就與該事實相反，同樣，也不能想當然地認為主句與某一事實相反，從句也就與該事實相反。如2）：

　　2）If you ______that movie last night, you wouldn't be so sleepy.（1993.6）

　　A.hadn't watched

　　B.haven't watched

　　C.wouldn't have watched

　　D.didn't watch

　　**：A

　　從句與過去事實相反，而主句與現(xiàn)在事實相反。

　　再如：

　　If he weren't such a kind man, he wouldn't have lent a hand to such people as you the other day.（從句與現(xiàn)在事實相反，主句與過去事實相反。）

　　Were my friends not to come tomorrow, I wouldn't have bought so many foods.（從句與將來事實相反，主句與過去事實相反。）

　　3.if引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句時，可以將were/had/should提至句首，省略if.考試時經(jīng)常是將省略if的與含有if的選項并列，在這種情況下，應(yīng)注意分清從句的時態(tài)，盡管多數(shù)情況下都是倒裝的結(jié)構(gòu)為正確選項。如3）、4）、6）和7）。

　　再如：

　　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.
