虚拟语气理解困惑

这是新概念3第10课：

At the time, however, she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built, but was regarded as unsinkable,

for she had sixteen watertight compartments. Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to float.

The tragic sinking of this great liner will always be remembered, for she went down on her first voyage with heavy loss of life.

老师：

1) was regarded as unsinkable - 是否省略了to be, 即 was regarded as to be unsinkable ？

2) Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to float. - 这里用了和现在或将来的相反假设，怎么理解呢？为什么不是和过去来作相反假设呢？

或者说，作者写这篇文章的时候，是站在什么时间角度立场来写这句话的呢？

3) 另外，书上说with heavy loss of life是结果状语，可我感觉应该是“伴随状语”？

1 as 在此是介词，不可以后接不定式。所以不可以加to be。其实这里是省略了动名词being. 即as (being) unsinkable. 注意动名词being几乎总是被省略了，所以介词as后可以后接形容词和过去分词。

2 even if 引导的是真实条件句，不是虚拟语气。泰坦尼克号已经沉没，哪有和现在事实相反这一说呢？不要一见条件句谓语用了过去形式，就不假思索认为是虚拟语气。

3 with状语分析为结果和伴随都是可以的。一般而言如果能分析为结果，则尽量不分析为伴随。伴随状语是实在难以说出是何种状语时用的。
