虚拟语气的应用条件:
在表示假想的虚假的、与事实相反的或难以实现的情况时用虚拟语气,表示主观愿望或某种强烈情感时,也用虚拟语气。即当一个人说话时欲强调其所说的话是基于自己的主观想法,愿望,假想,猜测,怀疑或建议,而不是根据客观实际,就用虚拟语气。主要是英语语法的一种表达。
条件句可分为两类,一类为真实条件句,一类为非真实条件句。非真实条件句表示的是假设或实际可能性不大的甚至完全不可能发生的情况,故采用虚拟语气。

虚拟语气是动词的一种特殊形式,用来表达说话人的愿望、请求、意图、建议、惊奇、设想等。
一、常用“may+动词原形”表示祝愿,但愿,此时may须置于句首(多用于正式文体中)。
1、May good luck be yours!祝你好运!
2、May you be happy!祝你快乐!
3、May you do even better!祝你取得更大成就!
4、May you have a good time. 祝愿你玩的痛快。
二、用动词原形。例如:
1、Long live the people! 人民万岁!
2、“God bless you,”said the priest.牧师说:“愿上帝保佑你!”
3、Have a good journey! 祝愿你旅途愉快!

主要取决于某些形容词和过去分词,用来表示建议、命令、要求、惊异和失望等。其形式为:(should)+动词原形。
2、表语从句和同位语从句中的虚拟语气
在表示建议、命令、主张、目的和愿望等名词后面的表语从句和同位语从句中谓语动词要求使用虚拟语气。其形式为:(should)+动词原形。
3、宾语从句中的虚拟语气
某些动词后所接宾语从句中的谓语动词要求用虚拟语气,用来表示建议、命令和要求等。其形式为:(should)+动词原形。
4、错综、混合虚拟语气
通常,在上面表格里反映的是非真实条件句的虚拟语气模式,从句和主句的谓语动词时间是一致的,如果两者时间不一致,此时就是混合型虚拟语气。
混合型虚拟语气的使用要求“各自为政”,即从句和主句根据各自假设的时间不同,采用上面表格中对应的的谓语动词形式。混合虚拟语气还有一种情况就是事实和虚拟假设的混合句,这样的句子不仅仅是时间的不同,而重要是事实和假设的混合。
5、含蓄虚拟语气
因为有时假设的情况并不是以if引导的条件从句形式出现,而是通过一些短语等形式暗示虚拟语气的存在,常用的词语有with, without, but for, otherwise, or,even, in case of, what if(如果…将如何)等等,这种句子往往有主句而无从句 (考试时多数情况是对过去的假设)。
虚拟语气用法:
1、条件状语从句中的应用:条件句可分为两类,一类为真实条件句,一类为非真实条件句。非真实条件句表示的是假设或实际可能性不大的甚至完全不可能发生的情况,故采用虚拟语气。
2、目的状语从句中的应用:在for fear that,in case,lest引导的从句中,若用虚拟语气时,从句谓语为:should+ do。should不能省略。
3、宾语从句中的应用:动词wish后接宾语从句时,从句谓语要用虚拟语气。若要表示与现在事实相反的愿望,从句谓语用一般过去时或过去进行时(同样be动词换成were);

3、wish后面所跟的宾语从句中的虚拟语气表示某种不能实现的愿望。

条件句有真实条件句和非真实(虚拟)条件句两种。真实条件句所表示的假设是有可能发生的,而非真实条件句则通常表示一种假想,与事实相反或不大可能会发生:
If I have time, I will go with them. 假若我有时间,我就同他们去。(陈述语气)
If I were you, I would go with them. 假若我是你,我就同他们去。(虚拟语气)
▲ 与现在事实相反
若与现在事实相反,条件从句的谓语用过去式(be通常用were),主句谓语用“should (would, could, might)+动词原形”:
If I knew her number ,I could ring her up. 要是我知道她的电话号码,我就可以给她打电话了。(可惜我不知道)
▲与过去事实相反
若与过去事实相反,条件从句的谓语用过去完成时(had+过去分词),主句谓语用“should (would, could, might)+have+过去分词”:
If I’d left sooner,I’d have been on time. 要是我早点动身,我就准时到了。(但我动身太迟了)
▲与将来事实相反
若与将来事实相反,条件从句的谓语用过去式(be通常用were),主句谓语用“should (would, could, might)+动词原形”:
If I asked him,I’m sure he’d help us. 如果我向他提出要求,肯定他会帮助我们。(不过我不打算这样做)
注:几点特别说明
① 主句谓语中的should主要用于第一人称后。would, might, could的大致区别是:would表示结果,might表示可能性,could表示能力、允许或可能性。比较:
If you tried again ,you would succeed. 要是你再试一试,你就会成功的。(would表结果)
If you tried again, you might succeed. 要是你再试一试,你可能会成功的。(might表可能)
If you tried again ,you could succeed. 要是你再试一试,你就能成功了。(could表能力)
④ 对于与将来事实相反的情形,请注意以下几点:一是这里说的与将来事实相反,实为对将来情况的推测;二是此用法中的条件从句谓语除用过去式外,有时也用“should+动词原形”(表示可能性极小,常译为“万一”)或“were to+动词原形”(表示与将来事实相反的假设);三是当条件从句使用“should+动词原形”这样的谓语时,主句谓语除可用“should (would, could, might)+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气外,也可用直陈语气或祈使语气:
If it should rain tomorrow, don’t expect me. 万一明天下雨,就不要等我了。(祈使语气)
If I should see him, I’ll tell him. 万一我见到他,我就告诉他。(直陈语气)
2、错综时间虚拟条件句
所谓错综时间虚拟条件句即条件从句与主句所指时间不一致,如从句指过去,而主句即指的是现在或将来,此时应根据具体的语境情况,结合上面提到的三种基本类型对时态作相应的调整:
If it had rained last night, the ground would be wet now. 要是昨晚下过雨的话,现在地面就会是湿的。
You would be much better now if you had taken my advice. 假若你当时听我的话,你现在就会好多了。
3、两个常考虚拟语气句型
▲ 句型介绍
这两个句型是If it weren’t for…和If it hadn’t been for…,这是两个很常用的虚拟语气句型,也经常受到命题人的青睐,其意为“若不是(有)”“要不是有”。如:
If it weren’t for water, no plant could grow. 要是没有水植物就无法生长。
If it hadn’t been for your assistance ,we wouldn’t have succeeded.
=But for your assistance ,we wouldn’t have succeeded.
=Without your assistance ,we wouldn’t have succeeded.
5、wish后宾语从句用虚拟语气
▲ 用法说明

注:特别注意
从句的时态只与从句所指的时间有关,而与wish的时态无关,比较:
I wish I were rich. 要是我现在有钱就好了。
I wish I had been rich. 要是那时我有钱就好了。
I wished I were rich. 当时我后悔自己没有钱。
I wished I had been rich. 当时我后悔自己曾经没有钱。

If only she had had more courage! 她再勇敢一些就好了。
If only I had listened to my parents! 我要是当时听了父母的话就好了。
If only she would go with me! 她要是愿意和我一道去就好了!
注:if only 通常独立使用,没有主句。

He acts as if he knew me. 他显得认识我似的。
They treat me as though I were a stranger. 他们待我如陌生人。
He talks as if he had been abroad. 他说起话来好像曾经出过国。
注:两点说明

(2) 注意 It isn’t as if…的翻译:
It isn’t as if he were poor. 他不像穷的样子(或他又不穷)。
8、It’s time后的从句用虚拟语气

四、虚拟语气的几种特殊用法
省掉if的条件从句结构:
Had you asked me, I would have told you. (=If you had asked me,…)
2.有时虚拟条件不用条件从句而用不定式、分词、介词、名词、连接词或定语从句来表示,如:
A true friend would not do such a thing.
(=If he were a true friend, he...)
(=If there were no water,…)
(=If you hadn’t helped me,…)
3. 有时条件从句中的动作和结果从句中的动作发生的时间不一致,如:
If he had followed the doctor’s advice, he would be quite all right now.
If I were you, I would have gone home.
五、虚拟语气的其他用法
1、Suggest, advise 等动词之后宾语从句须用虚拟语气,其句子结构如下:
suggest, advise, recommend, demand,
require, insist, urge, request, order, +that…(should )+动词原形
devide, ask, move, propose等
注意:在此结构中that不可省略;should省不省均可。
He suggested that they (should ) stop smoking.
上述动词的名词形式出现时,that 引导的从句仍用虚拟语气。
He made a request that they (should ) stop smoking.
如果that 引导的从句所表达的内容是事实,也可用陈述语气。
He insists that he is right.

I wish I were a pop singer. (=I am sorry I am not a pop singer..)
I wish I had never stopped teaching. (=I am sorry I stopped teaching.)
I wish they’d let us get some sleep.
注意:wish与hope接宾语从句的区别在于:hope表示一般可以实现的希望,宾语从句用陈述语气。wish表示很难或不大可能实现的希望,宾语从句用虚拟语气。试比较:
(1) We hope they will come,(We don’t know if they can come.)
(2) We wish they could come,(We know they are not coming.)
4、as if, as though, would(had) rather(that)引导的从句须用虚拟语气,如:
