　　解題小貼士

　　1. 【C】

　　這句話的虛擬從句被主句用逗號隔開，had they been done by hand是與過去發(fā)生的事實相反的假設(shè)，主句要用虛擬語氣，且有by the time這個時間狀語，主句要用完成時態(tài)。 正確答案為C，題目譯文為：如果用手工計算的話，那些成千上萬的演算等完成以后就已失去了其實用價值。

　　2. 【A】

　　這是一個錯綜條件句，從句中說的是過去發(fā)生的事，主句表示的是現(xiàn)在的事，從now這個詞我們就可以知道是對現(xiàn)在的虛擬。所以正確答案是A，題目譯文為：如果當你摔下來的時候，我沒站在樓梯上接住你的話，你現(xiàn)在就不可能笑了。

　　3. 【C】

　　本句是考核對rather的用法，would rather…than“寧可……（也）不愿”，是個典型的平行結(jié)構(gòu)，would rather后跟的是謂語動詞，than后也應(yīng)跟謂語動詞。正確答案為C，題目譯文為：無論這個房間有多小，我也寧愿有一個自己的房間，而不愿與別人同住一室。

　　虛擬語氣用法一：

　　1. 虛擬語氣用在if引導的條件狀語從句中。

　　注：

　�。�1）有時可以把含有助動詞、情態(tài)動詞、be或have的虛擬條件句中的連詞if省去，而將had、should、were等詞提到主語之前，即用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。

　�。�2）在錯綜條件句子中，虛擬條件從句和主句動作發(fā)生的時間不一致，因此，主句和從句的謂語動詞應(yīng)根據(jù)所指的時間選用適當?shù)奶摂M語氣形式。例如：

　�、� If I were you，I wouldn’t have missed the film last night. 如果我是你，我就不會錯過昨天晚上的那部電影。（從句與現(xiàn)在事實相反，主句與過去事實相反。）

　�、� If he had followed the doctor’s advice，he would recover already. 如果他遵照醫(yī)生的勸告，現(xiàn)在病就好了。（從句與過去事實相反，主句與現(xiàn)在事實相反。）

　　2. 虛擬語氣用在would rather（共考過六次），would（just）as soon，would sooner，would prefer（希望）等后接的賓語從句中，意指某人寧愿讓另一個人做某事，其后的賓語從句的謂語動詞需用虛擬語氣。若表示現(xiàn)在或?qū)�來要做某事，從句謂語動詞需用一般過去時，表示過去已經(jīng)做的事，從句謂語動詞用過去完成時。例如：

　�。�1）To be frank, I’d rather you were not involved in the case.

　�。�2）I’d rather you didn’t make any comment on the issue for the time being.

　　注：

　�。�1）若某人愿自己做某事，would rather后用動詞原形。

　　【例】I would rather stay at home today.

　�。�2）would rather… than……中用動詞原形。

　　【例】I would rather stay at home than go out today.

　　3. 虛擬語氣用在lest，for fear that或in case引導的目的狀語從句中。

　　在由lest等引導的目的狀語從句中需用虛擬語氣，表示“以防、以免”等意思，其謂語動詞多由should＋動詞原形構(gòu)成，should也可省略。

　　【例】He was punished lest he should make the same mistake again. 他被處以懲罰，以免他再犯。

　　4. 其他特殊用法。

　�。�1）if only引導的是省略了表示結(jié)果的主句的虛擬結(jié)構(gòu)，現(xiàn)在已成為習慣用法，表達愿望。從句用過去時表示現(xiàn)在沒有實現(xiàn)的愿望；對過去沒有實現(xiàn)或不能實現(xiàn)的愿望，從句就用過去完成時。這類句型表示一種不真實的條件，常譯成“要是……就好了！”

　　【例】If only I had taken mother’s advice. 我要是聽取媽媽的建議就好了。

　　（2）有時假設(shè)的情況不用if引導虛擬條件從句來表述，而用介詞（如without, but for等）引出的短語、分詞（如supposing等）引出的短語、并列連詞（如or, otherwise, but, though等）、動詞suppose引出的祈使句或通過上下文的意思來表達。此時句中謂語動詞仍采用虛擬語氣的相應(yīng)形式。

　　【例】But for your advice, I would not be able to do this work. 要不是你的勸告，我是不會做這份工作的。
