要注意题中的虚拟语气

 

请看下面两道题,虽然不是考查虚拟语气,但其中的虚拟语气对做题至关重要:

1—It looks as if he were drunk.

—So it does. _________.

A. He’d better give up drinking                        B. He shouldn’t have drunk so much

C. Health is more important than drink              D. I wonder why he is always doing so

【分析】此题最佳答案为D,但ABC均有可能误选,主要是受题中 drunk 一词的影响。

做此题的关键是要抓住It looks as if he were drunk 中的关键词were,因为它表明此句的谓语为虚拟语气,也就是说,他喝醉了不是事实,只是他的言行好像是喝醉了,所以此题的最佳答案是D。另外注意,句中的 so it does 表示强调,意为:他看上去的确像是喝醉了。

类似用法:

—The building looks beautiful. 这房子看上去很美。

—Yes, so it does. 是的,看上去的确很美。

此句中的 so it does 表强调

 

2I had hoped to see her off at the station, but I _________ too busy.

A. was                        B. had been                   C. would be                   D. would have been

【分析】此题容易误选BD,认为前句用了had hoped,所以此句谓语要用BD与之呼应。正确答案为A:前一句谓语用had hoped,表示的是过去未曾实现的想法或打算,可以译为本想,而后一句说我太忙,这是陈述过去的一个事实,所以要用一般过去时。请看类例(答案均为A)

(1) We had hoped to catch the 10:20 train, but _________ it was gone.

A. found                     B. had found                  C. would find                D. would have found

(2) We had hoped that you would be able to visit us, but you _________.

A. didn't                      B. hadn't                       C. would not                 D. would not been

(3) We had wanted to come to see him, but we _________ no time.

A. had                        B. had had                     C. would have               D. would have had

(4) I had expected to come over to see you last night, but someone _________ and I couldn't get away.

A. called                      B. had called                 C. would call                 D. would have called
