1.表过去将来时,与另一过去时动词并用
例:he said that he would try again.
(他说他会再试试。)
he said,"i will try again."
(他说:“我会再试试。”)
did you know when he would come?
(你当时知道他何时会来吗?)
注意
新闻英语中,常出现will与过去时动词并用的现象。
例:he said that he will visit the country sometime in june.
(他说6月份要找个时间去乡下。)
本句暗示he said虽为过去状态,但he will visit...由表示将来一定会发生的状态,在语法上并没有错。为了方便你的了解,特编了下列两段对话:
会话一:
a:i saw john a few days ago.
a:几天前我看到约翰。
b:what did he say?
b:他说了些什么?
b:他说了些什么?
a:he said that he would call on you yesterday.
a:他说昨天要拜访你。
a:他说昨天要拜访你。
b:but as far as i know, he didn't show up yesterday.
b:但是就我所知,他昨天并没有出现。
b:但是就我所知,他昨天并没有出现。
会话二:
a:i saw john a few days age.
a:几天前我看到约翰。
a:几天前我看到约翰。
b:what did he say?
b:他说了些什么?
b:他说了些什么?
a:he said that he will call on you tomorrow.
a:他说明天要去拜访你。
a:他说明天要去拜访你。
b:i'll be expecting him then.
b:到时候我会等他的。
b:到时候我会等他的。
2. would+原形动词 如果……就会……
would have+过去分词
表虚拟语气,分别表与现在和过去事实相反。
例:(l)与现在事实相反
if ihad money now, i would buy a car.
(but i don't have money now.)
(如果我现在有钱,我要买部车。—一但我现在没钱。)
(but i don't have money now.)
(如果我现在有钱,我要买部车。—一但我现在没钱。)
(2)与过去事实相反
if i had money then, i would have bought a car.
(but i didn't have money they.)
(当时我要是有钱,早就买车了。)
(but i didn't have money they.)
(当时我要是有钱,早就买车了。)
*见第七章虚拟语气。
3.would rather+原形动词 宁愿
例:i would rather go than stay here.
= i would sooner go than stay here.
= i would as soon go as stay here.
= i would as lief go as stay here.
(我宁愿走也不要留在这儿。)
= i would sooner go than stay here.
= i would as soon go as stay here.
= i would as lief go as stay here.
(我宁愿走也不要留在这儿。)
4.(i would rather/would/i wish)+(that) 从句
与现在事实相反,that从句用过去时:若与过去事实相反,则用过去完成时。
例:(i would rather/would/i wish) that( he were here./he had time.)
(but he is not here.)
(but he doesn't have time.)
(我真巴不得他在这儿有时间。
——但他不在这儿没有时间。)
(but he is not here.)
(but he doesn't have time.)
(我真巴不得他在这儿有时间。
——但他不在这儿没有时间。)
i would rather he had been here.
(but he wasn't here.)
(当时我真巴不得他在这儿。——可是他当时并不在。)
(but he wasn't here.)
(当时我真巴不得他在这儿。——可是他当时并不在。)
i would rather he had had time.
(but he didn't have time.)
(当时我真巴不得他有时间。——但是当时他没空。)
(but he didn't have time.)
(当时我真巴不得他有时间。——但是当时他没空。)
5.would you mind+ v-ing/if从句?你介不介意……
= do you mind+ v-ing/if从句
= do you mind+ v-ing/if从句
例:would you mind (doing it for me?/if you did it for me?
= do you mind+(doing it for me?/if you did it for me?
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
= do you mind+(doing it for me?/if you did it for me?
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
注意
would you mind 的口气要比do you mind客气。
同理:would you please do it for me?要比will you please do it for me?语气客气得多。
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
注意
would you mind之后if从句中,动词须使用过去时,以便与过去时的would配合。do you mind之后的if从句中,动词要使用现在时,以便与现在时的do配合。
