虚拟语态中省略的问题

You should have thanked her before you left.

I meant to, but when i was leaving i couldn't find here.

老师请问在这个问题中 为什么可以省略have.

而: Why didn't you take part in my birthday party yesterday?

I would like to have, but I had an unexpected guest. 

在这个问题中为什么正确答案是 to have 而不可以像上一个一样是to呢?

You should have thanked her before you left.

I meant to, but when i was leaving i couldn't find here.

这个对话中,meant to是不恰当的。应改为had meant to 或者 meant to have。

第二个对话中,would like to have是正确的。

表示愿望、打算的词,如:hope、expect、mean,intend,want,suppose等,其过去完成时表示过去未曾实现的愿望或者意图。如:

I had hope to see more of Shanghai, but I didn't get the chance.

I had meant to help you, but I was too busy at that moment.


所以,你第一个句子,是没有那么恰当的,meant应该用过去完成时。

I had meant to, but when i was leaving i couldn't find here.


第二个句子,根据虚拟语气中 would like/love to have done 的结构,可以表示过去愿意做但未做成,所以第二个句子是完全恰当的。

I would like to have, but I had an unexpected guest.
