新東方白易禮：英語四級考試語法筆記(六)

　　4、在 I would rather (that)…句型中，后面的從句的謂語動詞用過去式(be的過去式用were)。這句話的意思是“我寧可…”，表示說話人的意愿。

　　For example:

　　I’d rather I were in the rain now.

　　I’d rather you did not tell him.

　　5、用在suppose開頭的祈使句中，從句的謂語動詞變化與as if后面的動詞變化規(guī)律相同，用過去式、過去完成式、或過去將來式。意思是“假如…”，但suppose 是動詞，不是連詞。如：

　　Suppose the boss walked in. What should I do?

　　Suppose Saddam had not been captured. What would the U.S. do?

　　Suppose Chen Shui-bian should declare Taiwan independent. What would China do?

　　6、用在for fear that或lest引導的從句中，表示“怕…”“萬一…”等意思。從句的謂語動詞用should+動詞原形，should 可以省略。如：

　　She closed the windows for fear that she (should) catch cold.

　　The officer forbade the use of artillery lest the city’s industry be damaged.

　　Lest the wall should collapse, they evacuated from the building.

　　7. 在表示建議、要求、命令等意思的動詞，如arrange, command, demand, desire, insist, order, propose, request, require, suggest, beg, move(提議)后面的賓語從句中，謂語動詞用should + 動詞原形，should 可以省略，而引導賓語從句的that 不能省略。例如：

　　We suggested that we (should) have a meeting.

　　We insisted that they (should) go with us.

　　The doctor ordered that she (should) stay in bed for a few days.

　　He demanded that we (should) start right away.

　　The commander ordered that the bridge (should) be bombed.

　　The villagers requested that the old building not be pulled down.

　　Now let’s do some translation:

　　總經(jīng)理堅持該項目必須按計劃執(zhí)行。

　　The general manager insisted that the project be carried out as planned.

　　省長請求再給他一次機會。

　　The governor requested that he be given another chance.

　　美國要求伊朗必須無條件放棄其核武器計劃。

　　The United States demanded that Iran should unconditionally give up its nuclear weapon program (program to develop nuclear weapons)

　　最高法院裁定此案必須重新審理。

　　The Supreme Court ruled that this case be retried.

　　醫(yī)生建議，即使在節(jié)假日人們也不應該熬夜。

　　Doctors suggest that people should not stay up late even on holidays.

　　注意：suggest 表示“暗示”時，賓語從句不用虛擬語氣。Insist后面強調的是事實時，賓語從句也不用虛擬語氣。如：

　　The neighbor suggested that his wife was having an affair.

　　He insisted that he was right.

　　Mike insisted that he had never stolen anything.
