Part Ⅳ. Grammar and usage---Subjunctive Mood (2)
一、非真实条件虚拟语气的其他用法
1．错综条件虚拟语气。当虚拟条件句中的主句、从句谓语动词动作发生的时间不一致时，动词就要根据各自的具体时间来确定所需要的形式。如：
If you had taken my advice at that time, you would know what to do now.
2．含蓄条件句。有时为了表达的需要，在虚拟条件句中并不总是出现if引导的条件句，而通过其它手段来代替条件句，例如with/without, but for(除了), otherwise/or。
What would you do with a million dollar? (= if you had a million dollars)
We couldn’t have finished the work ahead of time without your help. (= if we hadn’t got your help)
But for the rain (= If it hadn’t been for the rain), we would have finished the work.
He telephoned to inform me of my birthday, or I would have known nothing about it.
3. 常用非真实条件虚拟语气的其它句型：
1) wish后that引导的宾语从句中。如：
I wish I were as clever as you.
I wish I hadn’t missed the train yesterday!
2) would rather后的宾语从句中。如：
I’d rather you didn’t go there.
3) as if/though引导的表语从句和方式状语从句中。如：
He looks as if/though he were an artist.
4) If only引导的感叹句中。如：
If only I were the principal!
5) It is (high) time that…句式中。如：
It’s (high) time that we went home now.
二、(should) do形式的虚拟语气
在下列句型中，常用“should +动词原形”且should可以省略：
１．用在表示建议、命令和要求的动词所引导的宾语从句中。常见的动词有：insist, order, command, advise, suggest, propose, demand , require, request, desire等。如：
The doctor suggested/insisted that she (should) stay in bed for a few days.
注意：当suggest作“暗示，表明”讲，insist做“坚持说”讲时，后边that从句不用虚拟语气。如：Mike insisted that he had never stolen anything.
The look on his face suggested that he was hungry.
２．在名词advice, order, suggestion, request, proposal等后面that引导的同位语从句，或这些名词作主语是后面that引导的表语从句中。如：
We all agreed to his suggestion that we (should) give up the plan.
３．在It is necessary/natural/strange/important…that和It is a pity/a shame/no wonder…that从句中。如：It’s necessary that we (should) clean the room every day.
It’s a shame that our team should lose the game.
注意：在这两个句型的that从句中也可以不用虚拟语气，而用陈述语气。
4．用于某些简单句的固定句型中。如：
Heaven help him! God bless you! May you succeed!
Long live the People’s Republic of China!
