虚拟语气中should的用法高手指教
1.虚拟语气在条件句中的用法
(1)若表示与现在事实相反的假设,则条件从句中用过去式,主句中用过去将来式(would,should,could,might + 动词原形);若表示某事将来实现的可能性不大,则条件从句中用should + 动词原形也可用“were to+动词原形”或用过去式动词.如:
I would certainly go if I had time.(现在)
If it should rain,we wouldn”t go out.(将来)
If I knew German,I would read the paper to you.(现在)
If he were here,we could ask him.(现在)
(2)若表示与过去事实相反的假设,从句中用过去完成式,主句中用过去将来完成式(should,would,could,might + have + 过去分词).如:
If I had set off a little earlier,I would have caught the train.
She would / might have come if she hadn”t been so busy.
If I hadn”t taken your advice,I would have made a bad mistake.
If only you hadn”t told him the news.
(3)含有虚拟语气的条件状语从句中,如有had,should,were 这三个词的话,在正式或书面语言中可将if省略,再将句子的主语和谓语动词实行全部倒装或部分倒装.如:
Had they time(=If they had time),they would certainly come and help us.
Should it be fine(=If it should be fine),we would go for an outing.
Were I go(=If I were you),I would go.
(4)若主句从句所指的时间不一致,即条件从句表示与过去事实相反,主句表示与现在事实相反;或者条件从句表示与现在事实相反,主句表真实情况,则从句中应采用与具体时间相对应的虚拟形式.如:
If it had rained last night(过去),It would be very cold today(现在).
If I had taken your advice(过去),I should have no trouble with the work now(现在).
2.虚拟语气在宾语从句中的用法

5.虚拟语气在其他状语从句中的用法
