论文部分内容阅读
1. 雨下了三天,现在还没停。如果今天雨停了的话,我们就出去散散步。
误:It has been raining for three days. If the rain stops today, we would go out for a walk.
正:It has been raining for three days. If the rain stopped today, we would go out for a walk.
析:today是现在时间。在与现在事实相反的条件状语从句中,谓语动词应为过去式,主句中的谓语动词应为“would/should/could/might+动词原形”。
2. 如果你昨天完成了作业,就不会受到老师的责备了。
误:If you finished your homework yesterday, you wouldn’t be scolded by your teacher.
正:If you had finished your homework yesterday, you wouldn’t have been scolded by your teacher.
析:yesterday是过去时间。在和过去事实相反的条件状语从句中,谓语动词应为过去完成式,主句中的谓语动词应为“would/should/could/might+have done”。
3. 万一他明天来的话,我就把这本书给他。
误:Had he come tomorrow, I should give the book to him.
正:Should he come tomorrow, I should give the book to him.
析:虚拟条件从句中有had,were,should时,可省略if,再把从句中的had,were,should等提到主语前。这样变换后,还能表达同样的条件意义。tomorrow是将来时间,条件状语从句中应该用should come,不应该用had come。
4. 如果昨天没有下雪的话,现在我们就能在操场上踢球了。
误:If it didn’t snow yesterday, we can play football on the sports ground now.
正:If it hadn’t snowed yesterday, we could play football on the sports ground now.
析:主句动作和从句动作发生的时间不一致时,应视具体情况来确定主句和从句中谓语动词的形式。如果从句说的是过去的情况,那么其谓语动词应为过去完成式;如果主句说的是现在的情况,那么其谓语动词就应为“could+动词原形”。
5. 我建议汤姆马上去书店买那本书。
误:I suggest that Tom goes to the bookstore to buy the book at once.
正:I suggest that Tom(should) go to the bookstore to buy the book at once.
析:advise,suggest,propose,order,desire,request,demand等表示“建议、命令或要求”的动词后面接宾语从句时,从句的谓语动词应为“should+动词原形”,should也可以省略。
6. 我真希望没有把那件事告诉我母亲。
误:I wish I didn’t tell my mother that thing.
正:I wish I hadn’t told my mother that thing.
析:wish后面的宾语从句中,谓语动词应该用过去完成式表示过去时间。
7. 我建议这个问题在下次会议上讨论。
误:My advice is that this question will be discussed at the next meeting.
正:My advice is that this question(should) be discussed at the next meeting.
析:advice,demand,order,request,suggestion等名词后面的表语从句、同位语从句中,谓语动词应为“(should)+动词原形”。本句表示的是被动含义,所以应该用被动形式be discussed。
8. 现在到了你弟弟该努力学习的时候了。
误:It’s high time that your brother studies hard.
正:It’s high time that your brother studied hard.
析:在It’s (high) time后面的that从句中,谓语动词通常为过去式或“should+动词原形”。
9. 你要是能看到这本有趣的书,该有多好啊!
误:If only you can see this interesting book!
正:If only you could have seen this interesting book!
析:If only引导的是从句部分,主句部分常常被省略掉。“if only…”的意思是“要是……该多好啊”。在这种句式中,常用过去式表示现在时间,用过去完成式表示过去时间。有情态含义时,用“情态动词could/should/would+动词原形”表示将来时间,用“情态动词could/should/would+have+done”表示过去时间。
10. 他的朋友来了,否则他会和你一起去看电影的。
误:His friend had come, otherwise he would have gone to see the film with you.
正:His friend came, otherwise he would have gone to see the film with you.
析:用but,or,otherwise等连词连接的并列句中,有时候一个分句表达真实情况,另一个分句表达虚拟情况。这时我们要根据具体的意思来确定谓语动词的形式。此句中“朋友来了”是事实,所以要用过去时态,不能用过去完成时态。
误:It has been raining for three days. If the rain stops today, we would go out for a walk.
正:It has been raining for three days. If the rain stopped today, we would go out for a walk.
析:today是现在时间。在与现在事实相反的条件状语从句中,谓语动词应为过去式,主句中的谓语动词应为“would/should/could/might+动词原形”。
2. 如果你昨天完成了作业,就不会受到老师的责备了。
