虚拟语气

第一部分：语气的定义和种类语气(mood)语气是动词的一种形式，表示说话人对某一行为或事情的看法和态度。2 语气的种类

陈述语气：表示动作或状态是现实的、确定的或符合事实的，用于陈述句、疑问句和某些感叹句。如： There are two sides to every question.每个问题都有两个方面。Were you busy all day yesterday?昨天一整天你都很忙吗？ How good a teacher she is!她是多好的一位老师啊！祈使语气：表示说话人对对方的请求或命令。如： Never be late again!再也不要迟到了。

Don’t forget to turn off the light.别忘了关灯。

虚拟语气：表示动作或状态不是客观存在的事实，而是说话人的主观愿望、假设或推测等。如： If I were a bird, I could fly in the air.如果我是一只小鸟，我就能在空中飞行。I wish I could pa the examination.我希望我能通过考试。May you succeed!祝您成功！

虚拟语气在语法里算得上是个难点。让我们就从最简单的开始吧。

第二部分：虚拟语气的用法

I.简单句中虚拟语气的用法

一、动词的过去式用于现在时态时，表示说话人的谦虚、客气、有礼貌、或委婉的语气，常用于日常会话中。如：Would you be kind enough to show me the way to the post office? 请你告诉我去邮局的路好吗？

It would be better for you not to stay up too late.你最好别熬夜到很晚。

二、表示祝愿。

1、常用“may+动词原形”表示祝愿，此时may须置于句首（多用于正式文体中）。May good luck be yours!祝你好运！May you be happy!祝你快乐！

May you do even better!祝你取得更大成就！May you have a good time.祝愿你玩的痛快。

May the friendship between us last long.祝愿我们的友情天长地久。May you be happy.(注意那个be)祝你幸福。

2、用动词原形。例如：

(1)Long live the people!人民万岁！

(2).“God ble you,”said the priest.牧师说：“愿上帝保佑你！”

(3).Have a good journey!祝愿你旅途愉快！

3、表示强烈愿望。（该类型虚拟语气谓语仅用动词原形，第三人称单数也不加“s”）(1).God save me．(2).Heaven help us．

第三部分：名词性从句中的虚拟语气

I.宾语从句中的虚拟语气

一、在动词wish后的宾语从句中的虚拟语气

在动词wish后的宾语从句中的虚拟语气，常省去宾语从句的引导词that。

1、表示与现在的事实相反，wish后宾语从句中的谓语动词用过去式或过去进行式(时间上是同时的)。1)I wish(that可省略,下同)I knew the answer to the question.我希望知道这个答案。(事实上是不知道)2)I wish it were spring in my hometown all the year around.但愿我的家乡四季如春。(事实上不可能)3).I wish I were a bird.但愿我是只小鸟。(事实上不可能)4).When she was at the party, she wished she were at home.(wished,过去虚拟动词were)(事实上并不在家)5).Now that he is in China, he wishes he understood Chinese.(wishes,过去虚拟动词understood)现在他在中国，他希望能懂得中文。(事实上并不懂)6).When we begin the trip, they will wish they were with us.(事实上并不和我们在一起)

2、对过去情况的虚拟（和过去的事实相反）：Wish后宾语从句的谓语动词用过去完成时，或would, could, might+现在完成时。例：

1）I wish(that可省略，下同)I hadn't wasted so much time.我后悔不该浪费这么多时间。(事实上已浪费了)2）He wishes he hadn't lost the chance.他真希望没有失去机会。(其实已失去)3）We wished he had spoken to us.(事实上他并没同我们讲)4）I wish you had called earlier.(事实上已迟了)5）They will wish they had listened to us sooner.(事实上并不如此)例题分析：I wish I ______ longer this morning, but I had to get up and come to cla.A.could have slept B.slept C.might have slept D.have slept 动词wish后面接从句，表达不可能实现或与事实相反的情况时，谓语动词要用虚拟语气，即用过去式（表示现在发生的动作）或过去完成式（表示过去发生的动作）。本题后半句谓语动词have用的是过去时had to get up and come, 所以前面要用过去完成时表示过去发生的动作。所以, 选项A（could have slept）是答案

3）、对将来情况的虚拟(表示将来的主观愿望)：

如果wish表示对将来事情的愿望。宾语从句谓语动词用“would/should/could/might + 动词原形”(时间上较后)(请注意：主句和从句的主语不相同)。

1）.I wish it would stop raining.我希望雨能停止。(事实上雨还在下着呢)2）.I wish you would be quiet 我希望你安静一些。(事实上那家伙还在吵着呢)3）.You wished she would arrive the next day.你希望她第二天会到。(事实上她还没到)4）.I wish she would change her mind.我希望她会改变主意。(呵呵，女孩子可没那么容易就改变主意喔)5）.He will wish we would join him the following week.(只是希望我们和他在一起，实际上还没在一起)注意：.如果将wish改为过去式wished, 其后that 从句中的动词形式不变。例如： I wished I hadn't spent so much money.我要是那时没有花掉那么多钱就好了。

2.如果wish后宾语 从句中用would , 一般表示对现状不满或希望未来有所改变或请求 I wish he would answer my letter.I wish prices would come down.I wish you would help me.I wish you would stop asking silly questions.二、在表示建议、命令、要求、忠告等动词的后面的宾语从句中的虚拟语气的用法

由于这些动词本身隐含说话者的主观意见，认为某事应该或不应该怎样，这些词语后面的“that”从句应用虚拟语气，且均以“should+动词原形”表示这种语气，但事实上“should”常被省略，故此从句中谓语动词用原形，常用的此类动词有：

表示“要求”的：ask, desire, request, demand, require, beg 表示“提议、劝告、建议”的：move, propose, suggest, recommend, advise, vote 表示“决定、命令”的：decide, order, command, demand 表示“主张”的：maintain, urge 表示“同意、坚持”的：consent, insist 例如：

1.The doctor suggested that he(should)try to lose his weight.2.He insisted that we(should)tell him the news.3.When I suggested that he(should)try shaving cream, he said, “The razor and water do the job.”(当我建议他用刮胡膏时，他说“剃刀和水就行了”。)4.He pursued various theories for several days until I suggested we take the toy apart to see how it did work.(他费了几天功夫寻找理论根据，直到我建议拆开看看它是如何转动的。)

三、在expect, believe, think, suspect等动词的否定或疑问形式后的宾语从句中，我们经常用“should＋动词原形(或完成形式)”，表示惊奇，怀疑，不满等。

I never thought that he should be such a brave young soldier.我们从来没想到他是个如此勇敢的小战士。

四、在would rather，would sooner，had rather，would(just)as soon，would prefer之后的宾语从句中的虚拟语气的用法

would rather , would sooner, had rather, would(just)as soon，would prefer（希望）也用来表达主观愿望，它们之后的宾语从句中需用虚拟语气。谓语动词用过去式表示现在或将来，用过去完成式表示与过去事实相反。表示”宁愿做什么”或“对过去做的事的懊悔”。

(1).I would rather he came tomorrow than today.(2).John would rather that she had not gone to the party yesterday evening.(3).I would rather everything hadn' t happened in the past.(4).The manager would rather his daughter did not work in the same office．经理宁愿她女儿不与他在同一间办公室工作。

(7).To be frank，I'd rather you were not involved in the case．坦率地说，我希望你不要卷入这件事。

(8).You don't have to be in such a hurry．I would rather you went on busine first．你没有必要这么着急，我宁愿你先去上班。

(9).I'd rather you didn't make any comment on the iue for the time being．我倒希望你暂时先不要就此事发表意见。

(10).Frankly speaking，I'd rather you didn't do anything about it for the time being．坦白地说，我宁愿你现在对此事什么也不要做。

(11).Wouldn't you rather your child went to bed early？为什么你不愿让你的孩子早点上床呢？(12).I would just as soon you had returned the book yesterday．我真希望你昨天把这本书还了。注：若某人愿自己做某事，would rather后用动词原形 I would rather stay at home today． would rather．．．than．．．中用动词原形 I would rather stay at home than go out today．

II：主语从句中的虚拟语气

一、“It is(was)+形容词（或过去分词）+that„„”结构中的虚拟语气的用法

在“It is(was)+形容词（或过去分词）+that„„”结构中，某些表示愿望、建议、请求、命令、可能、适当、较好、迫切、紧近、重要等形容词后的主语从句中的谓语也用虚拟语气。其表达形式为should ＋动词原形或省略should直接用动词原形（美国英语中省去should）常用的形容词： natural(自然的), appropriate(适当的), advisable(合适的), preferable(更可取的), better(更好的)，neceary(必须的), important(重要的), imperative(急需的), urgent(急迫的), eential(本质的), vital(必不可少的)probable(很可能的), poible(可能的)，desirable(极好的)，advisable（合理的），compulsory（必须的），crucial（紧急的），desirable（理想的），eential（必要的），imperative（迫切的），incredible（惊人的），neceary（必要的），poible（可能的），strange（奇怪的），urgent（紧迫的）。

常用的过去分词(Past Participle): required(需要的), demanded(要求), requested(被请求的), desired(要求)，suggested(建议), recommended(推荐)，ordered(命令)1.It is neceary that we(should 可省略, 下同)have a walk now.2 It was neceary that we(should)make everything ready ahead of time.3.It is required that nobody(should)smoke here.(表示要求不要在此抽烟)4.It is important that every pupil(should)be able to understand the rule of school.(表示重要的是学生都能了解校规)5.It's important that we(should)take good care of the patient.6.It is natural that she should do so.7.It is eential that these application forms（should）be sent back as early as poible． 这些申请表应尽早地寄回，这是很重要的。

8.It is vital that enough money（should）be collected to fund the project． 重要的是募集足够的钱，为这个项目提供资金。

9.It is desired that we（should）get everything ready this evening． 希望我们今晚一切都准备就绪。

注：在上述所列形容词后面用that引出的宾语从句中，谓语动词也要用虚拟语气。

10.I don't think it advisable that Tom（should）be aigned to the job since he has no experiences.汤姆缺乏经验，指派他做这项工作我认为是不恰当的。

二、在It is ＋名词＋that„的主语从句中的虚拟语气

在It is ＋名词＋that的主语从句中，常用虚拟语气，表示建议、命令、请求、道歉、怀疑、惊奇等。这类名词有：advice，decision，desire，demand，idea，motion，order，pity，proposal, recommendation，requirement，resolution，shame，suggestion，surprise，wish，wonder等。It is my proposal that he be sent to study further abroad．我建议派他去国外进一步学习。III.虚拟语气用在表语从句或同位语从句中

当某些表示建议、请求、命令等主观意向的名词作主语时，其后的表语从句或同位语从句需用虚拟语气，其表达形式为should ＋动词原形或直接用动词原形。这类名词常见的有：

demand(要求), desire(请求), requirement(要求), advice(劝告), recommendation(建议), suggestion(建议)order(命令)neceity(必要地), preference(优先)proposal(计划), plan(计划), idea(办法)，recommendation等。

We are all for your proposal that the discuion be put off．我们都赞成你提出的将讨论延期的建议。

The suggestion that the mayor present the prizes was accepted by everyone．由市长颁发奖金的建议被每个人接受。

The advice is that we(should 可省略，下同)leave at once.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.IV.虚拟语气用在It is（about ／high）time ＋that定语从句中 在It is（about／high）time ＋that从句中需用虚拟语气，表示“该做„„的时候了”，其动词形式用一般过去时或should ＋动词原形。

It's already 5 o'clock now．Don't you think it's about time we went home？现在已经5点钟了，你不认为我们应该回家了吗？

注：在this is the first time ／second time that．．．句型中，从句中谓语动词用陈述语气完成时态。例如：

Is this the first time that you have visited Hongkong？这是你第一次参观香港吗？ V.虚拟语气用在as if（as though）引导的方式状语从句中。

（一）在as if（as though）引导的方式状语从句中，常用虚拟语气，其动词形式与wish后接宾语从句中的形式相同。Alan talked about Rome as if he were a Roman．艾伦谈起罗马来好像他是个罗马人一样。2 He pretends as if he didn't know the thing at all, but in fact he knows it very well.（用过去式表示与现在事实相反的假设）

3．The old man looked at the picture, he felt as though he had gone back to 20 years ago.(用过去完成式表示与过去相反的事实)那老人看着照片，他觉得仿佛回到20年前了。

4。They talked and talked as if they would never meet again.(would + 原形动词meet，表示与将来事实相反)他们谈了又谈，仿佛他们不会再相见的样子。

（二）虚拟语气用在lest，for fear that及in case引导的目的状语从句中。

在由lest等引导的目的状语从句中需用虚拟语气，表示“以防，以免” 等意思，其谓语动词多由should＋动词原形构成，should也可省略。

He was punished lest he should make the same mistake again．他被处以惩罚以免他再犯。VI、虚拟语气在条件从句中的用法： 条件从句有两类：（1）真实条件句；（2）虚拟条件句。如果假设情况有可能发生的，就是“真实条件句”。如： If time permits, we'll go fishing together.(如果有时间的话，我们就一起去钓鱼。)如果假设的情况与事实相反，则为“虚拟条件句”。如：

If it had rained yesterday, we would have stayed at home.如果昨天下雨的话，我们就会留在家里。）

这种句子一般由“从句”（Subordinate Clause）和“主句”(Main Clause)组成。如上例：

If it had rained yesterday, we would have stayed at home.“If it had rained yesterday” 就是“从句”；“we would have stayed at home” 则为主句。无论从句或主句的谓语都要用虚拟语气。它们所用的动词有三种时态(Tenses)，就是： 现在时态、过去时态、将来时态。

.一、与现在事实相反的假设(事情的发生都在同一时间内): 从句中用：if + 主语 + 动词的过去式(be 用 were)主句中用：主语 + would(should, could , might)+ 动词原形

例如：1.If I were you, I would go with him.2.If I were you, I should buy it.3.If I had time, I would study French.(如果有时间，我会学习法文。)（从句用过去式动词had，主句用动词原形 study）

4.If she knew English, she would not ask me for help.(如果她懂英文，她就不必要我帮了。)(从句用过去式动词knew, 主句用动词原形ask)注意：如果动作在进行中，主句要用：“主语 + would be + 进行式动词 ” 5.If they were here, he would be speaking to them now.(从句用过去式动词were, 主句用 would be speaking)

二、与过去事实相反的假设(假设从句的事实为过去的事)： 从句用：If + 主语 + had +过去完成式动词

主句用：主语 + would(should, could, might)+ have +过去完成式动词 +„„ 1.If you had studied harder last term, you could have paed exam.(从句动词用had studied, 主句动词用have paed)如果你在上个学期用功一些，你就会在考试中过关了。

2.If you had taken my advice, you wouldn't have failed in the exam.(从句动词用had taken, 主句动词用have failed)如果你当时听从我的劝告的话，你就不会在考试中失败了。

3.If you had got up earlier, you could have caught the train.(从句动词用had got up, 主句动词用 have caught)如果你起身得早一点，你就会赶得上火车了。

4.If it had snowed, I would have skied in the park.(从句动词用had snowed, 主句动词用 have skied)如果下雪的话，我就可在公园里滑雪了。

注意：如果动作在进行中，主句要用：“主语 + would + have + 完成进行式动词 5.If they had been here, he would have been speaking to them.(从句动词用had been, 主句动词用 have been speaking)

三、与将来的事实可能相反(对将来的事实实现的可能性不大)： 句：If + 主语 + should(或were)+ 动词原形 +„„

句：主语 + would(could, should, might)+ 动词原形 +„„ 1.If it should rain, the crops would be saved.(从句动词用should rain，主句动词用 be)如果天下雨，庄稼可能就收获了。

2.If he were to go tomorrow, he might tell you.(从句动词用were to, 主句动词用 tell)如果明天他走的话，他可能会告诉你。

3.If he were here, I would give him the books.(从句动词用 were, 主句动词用 give)如果他在这儿，我可能会把书给他。

注意：如果动作在进行中，从句(不是主句喔)要用：”If + 主语 + 过去进行式动词+„„“ 4.If she were staying here now, I would let her ride my horse.(从句动词用 were staying, 主句动词用 let)如果她现在留在这儿，我可能会让她骑我的马。

从句的 If 有时可省略，那么从句中的动词(were, had, should)就得移到主语前面： 1.原句：If she were younger, she would do it.去If：Were she younger, she would do it.(把动词were移到主语she的前面)2.原句：If he had tried it, he could have done it.去If：Had he tried it, he could have done it.(把had移到主语he的前面)

四、错综条件句（混合型条件句）中虚拟语气的用法有时虚拟条件句的从句和主句的动词动作时态会不一致：

（一）从句表示过去，主句表示将来：

If they had started the early morning yesterday, they would be here now.（二）从句表示将来，主句表示过去：

If I were not to make a preparation for my experiment this afternoon, I would have gone to see the film with you last night.（三）从句表示过去，主句表示将来： If we hadn't made adequate preparations, we shouldn't dare to do the experiment next week.（四）从句表示将来，主句表示现在：

If we shouldn't have an exam this afternoon, I would go shopping now.（五）省略了条件句的虚拟语气的用法（隐含型条件句）

有时候句中省略了条件句，而用 without / but for / in the absence of ”要不是“、”如果没有“，表示条件虚拟句：

1.Without air, nothing could live.要是没有空气，什么也不能生存。

2.But for your aistance, we could not accomplish it.要不是你的帮忙，我们是难有成就的。

3.In the absence of water and air, nothing could live.如果没有水和空气，什么也不能生存。
