虛擬語(yǔ)氣用來(lái)表示說(shuō)話人的主觀愿望或假想,所說(shuō)的是一個(gè)條件,不一定是事實(shí),或與事實(shí)相反
2) 在條件句中的應(yīng)用
條件句可分為兩類,一類為真實(shí)條件句,一類為非真實(shí)條件句。非真實(shí)條件句表示的是假設(shè)的或?qū)嶋H可能性不大的情況,故采用虛擬語(yǔ)氣.
e.g. If he had seen you yesterday, he would have asked you about it .
如果他昨天見到你,他會(huì)問(wèn)你這件事的。
If it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we will go to the park.
如果明天不下雨的話,我們就去公園。

4.虛擬條件句可以轉(zhuǎn)換的形式
(1)省略連詞if
在書面語(yǔ)中,如果虛擬條件句中有were, had或should,可以把if省略,而把這幾個(gè)詞放到主語(yǔ)之前,構(gòu)成主謂倒裝。
Were I you (If I were you ), I would not do it
我要是你,就不做這事
Should he come(If he should come),tell him to ring me up.
他要是來(lái)了,讓他給我打個(gè)電話。
