由lest, for fear that, in case 引起的从句也多用should+动词原形的形式表示虚拟语气。
例9 They should be quick to respond to letters to the editor, lest animal rights misinformation go unchallenged and acquire a deceptive appearance of truth。
例10 What has happened is that people cannot confess fully to their dreams, as easily and openly as once they could, lest they be thought pushing, acquisitive and vulgar。
特殊句型类
考研的文章中有时会出现由单词或短语印出来的从句,如果是现在的情况,要用一般过去时,如果是过去的情况,要用过去完成体。
it is about/high time 是时间了其要表达的含义是早该,也就是说是目前还没发生,所以用虚拟语气。
例11 If I were in movie, then it would be about time that I [C] buried my head in my hands for a cry。
would rather/had rather 宁愿;wish希望;if only 要
是。。。就好了。if only 引导的句子经常被用来表示不可能或很难实现的愿望,动词用过去式,be动词用were。也可以表示对过去已经发生的事情表示遗憾,动词用过去完成式,其作用就相当于I wish 引导的句子。
as if / though 好像,仿佛
在表示假设的句子中,动词用过去式表示现在,用过去完成式表示过去。
