2 非真实条件句中的动词形式

要求:使用下面的公式创造非真实条件句

1. (If) simple past/were + (Main) would,etc +inf

2. (If) were to+ inf+ (Main) would, etc+inf

 

习题:

1. If my father ____ (say) such a thing to me, I would tell him to mind his own business.  

2. If you _____(stay) in England just a few months longer, your English would probably show a noticeable improvement.

 

答案: were to say; were to stay

 

习题1可表示与现在事实和与将来事实相反的虚拟语气, 习题2, 根据 a few months longer 可知,与将来事实相反。

公式1可用来表示与现在或将来事实相反,公式2可表示与将来事实相反。

所以,我的问题是为何这两道习题都采用were to do 的形式?可以分别使用said和asked 吗?谢谢老师!

  1. If my father ____ (say) such a thing to me, I would tell him to mind his own business.  

  2. 由主句推知,从句表示的是将来事件,从句用said, were to say, should say均可。不必考虑三者的区别。都表示不大可能实现的条件。

2. If you _____(stay) in England just a few months longer, your English would probably show a noticeable improvement.

本句有歧义。可能你打算在英国呆一个月,将来事件,现在假设你要是能多带几个月。从句和主句的时间一致。也可能从句表示过去,主句表示现在。你在英国只呆了一个月,你现在的英语没有显示出有多大的进步,错综时间虚拟条件句。

第一种可能:从句用stayed, were to stay, should stay均可。没有实质区别。

第二种可能:从句用had stayed, could have stayed均可。
