(一)知识讲解
虚拟语气在其他场合的运用
1) 虚拟语气在as if/as though、even if/even though等引导的表语从句或状语从句中,如果从句表示的动作发生在过去,用过去完成时;指现在状况,则用一般过去时;指将来状况则用过去将来时。
She loves the children in the kindergarten as if they were her own.
她像自己孩子一样热爱幼儿园的孩子门。
He talked about China as if he had been there. 他谈起中国来好像去过那里。
2) 虚拟语气用于句型“It is (about / high) time (that) … ”中,定语从句的谓语动词用一般过去时(be用were) 或should + 动词原形,意思是“(现在) 该……”。如:
It is high time (that) we began to work. 咱们该开始工作了。
3) 虚拟语气用在if only引导的感叹句中。
[例] If only you hadn't offended him. 你当时不惹他就好了。
If only I had some money on hand now. 我现在手头有些钱就好了。
If only he could come tomorrow. 他明天能来有多好啊。
4) 虚拟语气用在“for fear that”引起的状语从句中,表示“以防”、“以免”,其形式为should +动词原形(should不能省略) 。
She put a blanket over that baby for fear that he should catch cold.
她将一张毯子盖在婴儿身上以免它着凉。
5)虚拟语气用在介词without副词otherwise以及短语or else中。
Without air (If there were not air), there would be no living things.
如果没有空气的话,就不会有生物了。
6)if省略句
在书面语中,如果虚拟条件从句中有were,had 或 should,可以把if省略,把这几个词放到主语之前,构成主谓倒装。
Should he come (If he should come), tell him to ring me up.
他要是来了,让他给我打个电话。
Were I you (If I were you), I would not do it. 我要是你,就不做这事。

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