【知識(shí)點(diǎn)】虛擬語氣表示說話人的主觀愿望、猜測(cè)、建議或與事實(shí)不符的假想等,是通過謂語動(dòng)詞的特殊形式來構(gòu)成的。由于其實(shí)用性強(qiáng)、易與其它句型結(jié)合、創(chuàng)新力度大而倍受命題者的青睞,它主要在單項(xiàng)填空、語法填空和短文改錯(cuò)試題中考查。同時(shí),由于虛擬語氣表示說話人的主觀態(tài)度,故而在聽力、閱讀理解和完形填空中也會(huì)涉及。熟練掌握虛擬語氣后,有助于我們了解說話人當(dāng)時(shí)的真實(shí)情感,明白其言外之意、弦外之音,從而準(zhǔn)確把握命題人的真正意圖。
1. 虛擬語氣用于條件狀語從句中時(shí),主句和從句謂語動(dòng)詞的形式,解題關(guān)鍵在于牢記基本結(jié)構(gòu)。
if條件句的謂語動(dòng)詞 | 主句的謂語動(dòng)詞 | |
對(duì)過去的虛擬 | had+過去分詞 | would/should/could/might +have +過去分詞 |
對(duì)現(xiàn)在的虛擬 | 一般過去時(shí)(be用were) | would/should/could/might +動(dòng)詞原形 |
對(duì)將來的虛擬 | (1)一般過去時(shí)(be用were) (2)should+動(dòng)詞原形 (3)were to+動(dòng)詞原形 | would/should/could/might +動(dòng)詞原形 |
I was wearing a seatbelt. If I hadn’t been wearing one, I would have been injured.
[簡(jiǎn)析]句意:我當(dāng)時(shí)系著安全帶。如果我沒有系安全帶,我就會(huì)受傷了。使用虛擬語氣,根據(jù)if條件句中的hadn’t been wearing可知,主句用would have done表示對(duì)過去情況的虛擬,且I和injure是被動(dòng)關(guān)系。
Sorry, I am too busy now. If I had time, I would certainly go for an outing with you.
[簡(jiǎn)析]根據(jù)題干中“I am too busy now”可知,本題考查對(duì)現(xiàn)在的虛擬。句意:對(duì)不起,現(xiàn)在我很忙。如果我有空,我當(dāng)然會(huì)和你外出的。
Grace doesn’t want to move to New York because she thinks if she were to live there, she wouldn’t be able to see her parents very often.
[簡(jiǎn)析]本題考查對(duì)將來的虛擬。句意:Grace不想搬去New York,因?yàn)樗J(rèn)為如果住在哪兒,她將不能常??赐改?。
2. 在表示“堅(jiān)持、命令、建議、要求”等動(dòng)詞后面的賓語從句中,謂語動(dòng)詞要用“(should)+動(dòng)詞原形”。這類動(dòng)詞主要有:1堅(jiān)持insist、3命令command/ direct/ order、4建議advise/propose/recommend/suggest、6要求ask/desire/ demand/request/ require/urge,此外還有prefer(寧愿)等。解題關(guān)鍵在于should可以省略,并且要注意語態(tài)。
My mom suggests that we should eat out for a change this weekend. (陜西2013卷·12)
[簡(jiǎn)析]句意:媽媽建議我們這個(gè)周末出去吃飯換換樣。
Eye doctors recommend that a child’s first eye exam be at the age of six months old.
[簡(jiǎn)析]句意:眼科醫(yī)生建議:孩子在六個(gè)月時(shí)就要進(jìn)行第一次眼科檢查。
3. 在固定句式中考查。解題關(guān)鍵在于牢記基本結(jié)構(gòu)。
(1)It is (high/about/the very) time+that從句。that從句動(dòng)詞要用一般過去式或“should+動(dòng)詞原形”。解題關(guān)鍵在于牢記結(jié)構(gòu)以及should不能省略。
Jack is a great talker. It’s high time that he did something instead of just talking. (2012遼寧卷單項(xiàng)填空)
[簡(jiǎn)析]It’s high time+that從句,意為“該某人做某事的時(shí)候了”。that從句謂語動(dòng)詞要用一般過去式或“should+動(dòng)詞原形”。
(2)would rather+從句。
①表示對(duì)過去的虛擬,從句動(dòng)詞用“had+過去分詞”;

[簡(jiǎn)析]根據(jù)but分句中的is可知,本題考查對(duì)現(xiàn)在的虛擬。

[簡(jiǎn)析]根據(jù)題干中“George is going to talk about the geography of his country” 可知,本題考查對(duì)將來的虛擬。

[簡(jiǎn)析]根據(jù)時(shí)間狀語last Tuesday可知,本題考查對(duì)過去的虛擬。
There is a good social life in the village, and I wish I had a second chance to become more involved. (2018江蘇卷單項(xiàng)填空)
[簡(jiǎn)析]根據(jù)第一分句中的is可知,本題考查對(duì)現(xiàn)在的虛擬。

【高考考向】
依據(jù)語境來判斷虛擬語氣的不同形式為高考試題主要設(shè)題方法之一。在今年考題中,出現(xiàn)來對(duì)陳述語氣與虛擬語氣辨析考察。
【高考真題】
1. (2019.全國卷Ⅱ改編)If it had been my dog,I’d hope that somebody _______(be) willing to go that extra mile.
would be 句意∶如果那是我的狗,我希望有人愿意為我的狗多走一些路程, would表示意愿。
2. (2019 .天津卷改編)The workers were not better organized, otherwise they_________(accomplish) the task in half the time.
would have accomplished 句意∶工人們沒有被更好地組織起來,否則他們用一半的時(shí)間就能完成任務(wù)。根據(jù)句中的otherwise 以及前文為一般過去時(shí)可知,此處是對(duì)過去情況的含蓄虛擬,從句應(yīng)使用"would+have done",故填 would have accomplished。
【解題指導(dǎo)】本題通過時(shí)態(tài)及句中的關(guān)鍵詞 otherwise 可判斷是對(duì)過去情況的含蓄虛擬,從句謂語應(yīng)使用"would+have done"的形式。
3.(2018·北京卷改編)They might have found a bettr hotel if they_______(drive)a few more kilometers.
had driven 句意∶如果他們?cè)匍_幾千米,可能會(huì)找到一個(gè)更好的旅館。由主句中的"might have found"可知,此處表示與過去事實(shí)相反的假設(shè),從句應(yīng)用過去完成時(shí)。
4.(2017·江蘇卷改編)__________(be) it not for the support of the teachers, the student could not overcome her dificulty.
Were 句意∶要不是老師們的支持,那個(gè)學(xué)生克服不了她的困難。根據(jù)后面的"could not overcome"可知,此處是對(duì)現(xiàn)在情況的虛擬,從句中的 be動(dòng)詞要用 were。而且當(dāng)從句中省略了引導(dǎo)詞 if時(shí),從句要用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu),即把從句中的were提到句首。故填Were。
5.(2018·江蘇卷改編)單句語法填空
There is a god social life in the village, and I wish I_______ (have) a second chance to become more involved.
句意∶鄉(xiāng)村里的社交生活很好,我希望我能有再一次機(jī)會(huì)更多地參與其中。wish后的從句用虛擬語氣,根據(jù)語境可知。此處表達(dá)說話人此刻不太可能實(shí)現(xiàn)的愿望,故從句用一般過去時(shí)。
【學(xué)生學(xué)情分析】
學(xué)生能記住虛擬語氣的基本原則,但是對(duì)于不同的時(shí)間,如三個(gè)時(shí)空時(shí)態(tài)的轉(zhuǎn)換的具體表達(dá)不能很好地運(yùn)用,需要多加練習(xí),熟能生巧。
