请教老师们,我的句子成分分析正确吗?
原文:If it was me choosing the cave, I would go with a smaller cave.
问题一:针对整个句子:
这是虚拟语气句,其中was也可以(更应该)写成were.
问题二:针对if条件状语从句:
1. 这不是强调句。
2. 这不是it形式主语句。
3. 本句中的it=the person,而choosing the cave 是person的定语。但我不可以说choosing the cave是it的定语。
请问我的理解正确吗?谢谢!
1 在过去式虚拟语气中,当主语为单数第一、第三人称时,用was代替were是更为普通的非正式用法,用were属于正式语体,用was更为常见。
2 it was me choosing the cave
这是强调句型的一种变体。国内语法书中所说的强调句型,英语术语为it-cleft construction 即it分裂句。剑桥英语语法P 1420 指出:
Extensions of the main pattern
(a) Non-fifinite clause in place of the relative clause
The element expressing the presupposition sometimes has the form of a gerund-participial or (for some speakers) infifinitival rather than a relative clause:
[22] a. Is it Kim making all that noise? b. %It is you to serve.
These are equivalent to relatives containing the verb be: who is making all that noise; who
are to serve.
即强调句型中的that分句可以被非限定分句替代(如果表达假设或臆测意义的话)。所以你的句子可以改写为:
If it was me that was choosing the cave, ...
