是的,虛擬語氣,與現(xiàn)在事實相反的假設用過去時；與將來時間相反的時候就用過去將來時.
在虛擬語氣的從句中,動詞'be'的過去時態(tài)一律用"were",不用was,即在從句中be用were代替.
If I were you,I would go to look for him.
如果我是你,就會去找他.
If he were here,everything would be all right.
如果他在這兒,一切都會好的.
典型例題
_____ to do the work,I should do it some other day.
A.If were I B.I were C.Were I D.Was I
答案C.在虛擬條件狀語中如果有were,should,had這三個詞,通常將if省略,主語提前,變成 were,should,had +主語的形式.但要注意,在虛擬條件狀語從句中,省略連詞的倒裝形式的句首不能用動詞的縮略形式.如我們可說 Were I not to do.,而不能說 Weren't I to do.
