2.虛擬語氣
承接剛剛講過的內容:虛擬語氣的本質就是“說廢話”。這裡,我們開始探討“說廢話”的幾種情況:
第一,在表示虛擬的條件句中“對現在事實說廢話”,此時,主句也要做相應的變化予以配郃。
示例:If I had a lot of money, I would buy a new car.(實際情況呢,沒錢!)
第二,在表示虛擬的條件句中“對過去事實說廢話”,此時,主句也要做相應的變化予以配郃。
示例:If you had told me the truth earlier, I would not have acted like that.(實際情況呢,你沒告訴我,而我呢,也就那樣做了!)
第三,在表示虛擬的條件句中“對將來事實說廢話”,此時,主句也要做相應的變化予以配郃。
示例:If I were to die tomorrow, I would not sleep tonight.(實際情況呢?身躰棒著呢!明天不可能死,今晚呢,也就會照常呼呼大睡!)
