Part Ⅳ. Grammar and usage---Subjunctive Mood (2)
一、非真實條件虛擬語氣的其他用法
1．錯綜條件虛擬語氣。當虛擬條件句中的主句、從句謂語動詞動作發生的時間不一致時，動詞就要根據各自的具體時間來確定所需要的形式。如：
If you had taken my advice at that time, you would know what to do now.
2．含蓄條件句。有時為了表達的需要，在虛擬條件句中并不總是出現if引導的條件句，而通過其它手段來代替條件句，例如with/without, but for(除了), otherwise/or。
What would you do with a million dollar? (= if you had a million dollars)
We couldn’t have finished the work ahead of time without your help. (= if we hadn’t got your help)
But for the rain (= If it hadn’t been for the rain), we would have finished the work.
He telephoned to inform me of my birthday, or I would have known nothing about it.
3. 常用非真實條件虛擬語氣的其它句型：
1) wish后that引導的賓語從句中。如：
I wish I were as clever as you.
I wish I hadn’t missed the train yesterday!
2) would rather后的賓語從句中。如：
I’d rather you didn’t go there.
3) as if/though引導的表語從句和方式狀語從句中。如：
He looks as if/though he were an artist.
4) If only引導的感嘆句中。如：
If only I were the principal!
5) It is (high) time that…句式中。如：
It’s (high) time that we went home now.
二、(should) do形式的虛擬語氣
在下列句型中，常用“should +動詞原形”且should可以省略：
１．用在表示建議、命令和要求的動詞所引導的賓語從句中。常見的動詞有：insist, order, command, advise, suggest, propose, demand , require, request, desire等。如：
The doctor suggested/insisted that she (should) stay in bed for a few days.
注意：當suggest作“暗示，表明”講，insist做“堅持說”講時，后邊that從句不用虛擬語氣。如：Mike insisted that he had never stolen anything.
The look on his face suggested that he was hungry.
２．在名詞advice, order, suggestion, request, proposal等后面that引導的同位語從句，或這些名詞作主語是后面that引導的表語從句中。如：
We all agreed to his suggestion that we (should) give up the plan.
３．在It is necessary/natural/strange/important…that和It is a pity/a shame/no wonder…that從句中。如：It’s necessary that we (should) clean the room every day.
It’s a shame that our team should lose the game.
注意：在這兩個句型的that從句中也可以不用虛擬語氣，而用陳述語氣。
4．用于某些簡單句的固定句型中。如：
Heaven help him! God bless you! May you succeed!
Long live the People’s Republic of China!
