it is time句型中从句形式

《夸克大全》 14.24 The present and past subjunctive Note[b]:


The were-subjunctive cannot replace the hypothetical past in constructions introduced by It's time (that), eg: It's time I was in bed.


这里夸克是不是明确的说明了it is time (that)... 这个句型的从句中的语气是hypothetical past INDICTIVE陈述语气,而不是past SUBJUNCTIVE(were-subjunctive)过去虚拟语气。也就是说:


  It's time I was   in bed. [1]

* It's time I were in bed. [2]


[2]句是个错误的句子?

是的。现代语法认为虚拟语气只有二种形式:1 现在式虚拟语气即动词原型,2 过去式虚拟语气were(这一个词)。

I wish he was here now.

这个句子在传统语法为虚拟语气;在现代语法则为陈述语气。即现代语法认为陈述语气也可以表示与事实相反的假设或愿望。

It is time I were in bed. 为错句。因为没有人这么说话。谓语动词用过去时,偶尔用should do形式。

   这段话的意思是:“在 It's time (that) 引导的结构中,were 型 虚拟语气不能代替假设过去时。例如:It's time I was in bed. 

    也就是说:

  It's time I was   in bed. [1]

* It's time I were in bed. [2]

[2]句是个错误的句子。
