(五)語(yǔ)法重點(diǎn)(Grammar Focus)
虛擬語(yǔ)氣
1. 語(yǔ)氣就是我們常說(shuō)的說(shuō)話人說(shuō)話的口氣。
在漢語(yǔ)中,語(yǔ)氣是由說(shuō)話人說(shuō)話的語(yǔ)調(diào)、情節(jié)等等表現(xiàn)出來(lái)的,動(dòng)詞沒(méi)有任何變化。而在英語(yǔ)中,除了
語(yǔ)調(diào)之外,最主要的是動(dòng)詞發(fā)生變化而表示不同的語(yǔ)氣。
在英語(yǔ)中語(yǔ)氣分為三類(lèi):陳述語(yǔ)氣、祈使語(yǔ)氣、虛擬語(yǔ)氣。
2. 虛擬語(yǔ)氣:如果我們所說(shuō)的不是事實(shí),也不是要求、命令、勸告等,而只是一種假設(shè)、愿望、建議或
是一種實(shí)現(xiàn)不了的空想就用虛擬語(yǔ)氣。
3. 虛擬語(yǔ)氣常用在條件句中,及其他一些從句中。
注意:條件句分兩種,真實(shí)條件句和虛擬條件句。只有在虛擬(非真實(shí))條件句中,才用虛擬語(yǔ)氣,而
在真實(shí)條件句中,要用陳述語(yǔ)氣。
請(qǐng)比較:
(1)If it is sunny tomorrow , we’ll go to the zoo.
如果明天天氣好,我們將會(huì)去公園。在這句話中,明天天氣好是完全有可能實(shí)現(xiàn)的,并非虛擬、幻想,
因此是真實(shí)條件句。在本句中,適用“主將從現(xiàn)!
(2)If I were you , I would go at once.
(如果我是你的話,我立刻就走。)在這句話中,條件句,“如果我是你”,但事實(shí)上,我不可能成為
你,這只是假設(shè)的情況,沒(méi)有實(shí)現(xiàn)的可能。當(dāng)條件實(shí)現(xiàn)的可能性很小,甚至可以說(shuō)沒(méi)有時(shí),就需要用虛擬語(yǔ)
氣來(lái)表示,動(dòng)詞發(fā)生了變化。
4. 在虛擬語(yǔ)氣中,句子動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)比真實(shí)條件句中的時(shí)態(tài)后退一步
即:
現(xiàn)在時(shí)→過(guò)去時(shí)(該用現(xiàn)在時(shí)時(shí),用過(guò)去時(shí))
過(guò)去時(shí)→過(guò)去完成時(shí)(該用過(guò)去時(shí)時(shí),用過(guò)去完成時(shí))
將來(lái)時(shí)→過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí)(該用將來(lái)時(shí)時(shí),用過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí))
過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí)→過(guò)去將來(lái)完成時(shí)(該用過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí)時(shí),用過(guò)去將來(lái)完成時(shí))
在這一單元中,我們只要求初步接觸虛擬語(yǔ)氣的用法及結(jié)構(gòu),學(xué)習(xí)表示與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反的情況下如何體
現(xiàn)虛擬語(yǔ)氣。
5. “表示與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反的情況”的虛擬語(yǔ)氣
請(qǐng)看例句:
If I were you , I would take a small present.
如果我是你的話,我就帶上一個(gè)小禮物。
(注:在這個(gè)句子中,即“If I were you 中,一定用were ,而不能用was”)
(這句話中,是與現(xiàn)在的事實(shí)相反,“現(xiàn)在如果我是你的話!笔聦(shí)上,我不可能成為你,也就根本沒(méi)
有實(shí)現(xiàn)的可能)
請(qǐng)大家注意主句與條件從句中動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)的變化。
形式:
從句(用過(guò)去時(shí)) 主句(用過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí))
If +主語(yǔ)+
主語(yǔ)+
注:虛擬語(yǔ)氣中的were 除了在If I were you 的結(jié)構(gòu)中不能改動(dòng)外,其它情況下有時(shí)可用was。
又如:
If I won a million dollars , I’d give it to charities.
如果我贏了一百萬(wàn)英鎊,我要捐給慈善機(jī)構(gòu)。
(在此句中,If條件句中,動(dòng)詞用過(guò)去式won,主句則用should / would 加動(dòng)詞原形。現(xiàn)實(shí)情況是我沒(méi)
贏一百萬(wàn)英鎊;虛擬的情況是假如我贏了一百萬(wàn),這種虛擬是不可能變成現(xiàn)實(shí)的,因此用虛擬語(yǔ)氣。)
6. 虛擬語(yǔ)氣的疑問(wèn)式,除了動(dòng)詞相應(yīng)的變化外,其他變化與陳述語(yǔ)氣相同
如:
(1)What would you do if you were in the lion’s cage ?
如果你在獅子籠里,你會(huì)怎么做?
(疑問(wèn)詞在句首,主句中助動(dòng)詞提前,從句跟在主句后面。)
If I were in the lion’s cage , I’d call for help.
如果我在獅子籠里,我會(huì)大呼救命。
If I were in the lion’s cage . I’d get out fast.
如果我在獅子籠里,我會(huì)迅速出來(lái)。
(2)What would you do if you won the lottery ?
如果你贏了抽獎(jiǎng),你會(huì)做什么?
I’d give it to medical research.
我會(huì)用于醫(yī)學(xué)研究。
Or I’d put it in the bank.
我會(huì)存到銀行。
Or If I were a millionaire , I would buy a big house in the country.
如果我是百萬(wàn)富翁,我就在鄉(xiāng)村買(mǎi)座大房子。
關(guān)于虛擬語(yǔ)氣,我們要學(xué)習(xí)的東西還有許多,同學(xué)們會(huì)在今后的學(xué)習(xí)當(dāng)中,慢慢接觸到。
(六)Key points (疑難解析)
1.
bring的意思是把某人或某物“帶來(lái)”,“拿來(lái)”,強(qiáng)調(diào)方向,即從別處拿到說(shuō)話人這兒來(lái)。
e.g. Next time you come , bring me that book , please.
下次你來(lái)的時(shí)候,把我的書(shū)帶來(lái)。
take的意思是把人或物“帶走,拿走”,即從說(shuō)話人這兒帶到別處去。
e.g. Who has taken away today’s newspaper ?
誰(shuí)拿走了今天的報(bào)紙?
另外,相似的詞還有g(shù)et 和fetch ,表示到某地找到某人或某物并帶回來(lái),強(qiáng)調(diào)一去一回。
e.g. Go and get some water. 去弄點(diǎn)水來(lái)。
Can you fetch me some paper ?
你能給我取點(diǎn)紙嗎?
2. He might not know anyone at the party.
他可能在晚會(huì)上誰(shuí)也不認(rèn)識(shí)。
might 的用法如下:
(1)是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞may的過(guò)去式
eg. He said that I might borrow his bike.
他說(shuō)我可以借他的自行車(chē)。
(2)是may的虛擬語(yǔ)氣形式,不表示過(guò)去,而表示現(xiàn)在或?qū)?lái)“可以,可能”,但語(yǔ)氣更委婉、客氣,
有時(shí)表示對(duì)可能性有所懷疑。
e.g. a. Might I borrow your bike ?
我可能借你的自行車(chē)嗎?
(語(yǔ)氣比may更委婉)
b. He might come today .
今天他可能會(huì)來(lái)。
(對(duì)“他來(lái)”的可能性有所懷疑)
3. What if “如果…怎么辦”、“即使…又有什么關(guān)系?”
這是一個(gè)固定搭配,引導(dǎo)帶條件從句的疑問(wèn)句。
eg. What if they don’t come ?
他們不來(lái)怎么辦呢?
What if I don’t know anyone ?
如果我一個(gè)人也不認(rèn)識(shí),怎么辦呢?
4. I get nervous before big parties.
在大的晚會(huì)之前,我會(huì)感到緊張。
get nervous 變得緊張,get是系動(dòng)詞,nervous 是形容詞做表語(yǔ)。
又如:be nervous 或feel nervous 均可表達(dá)同樣的含義。
5. in public 公共的、公開(kāi)的
eg. Lily is very shy , and she is afraid to speak in public.
莉莉很害羞,她害怕在公眾場(chǎng)合講話。
6. ask one’s permission 征求某人的同意。

9. You would also rather stay at home and read a good book than go to a party.
你可能寧愿呆在家里讀書(shū),也不愿去參加晚會(huì)。
rather …than …寧愿…也不…(注:than與形容詞比較級(jí)無(wú)關(guān))
rather , than 既可分開(kāi)用,也可合在一起用,譯成“而不是”
如:
(1)rather die than surrender 寧死不屈
(2)I , rather than you , should do the work .
該做這個(gè)工作的是我,而不是你。
10. in the slightest 根本,一點(diǎn)也
