初中英语语法:错综时间的虚拟条件句
一、什么叫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。
二、一点特别说明
条件从句用 if I were时,既可指现在也可指过去:
If I were you, I would stay. 我要是你我就会留下。
If I were you, Id go to night school. 我要是你,我会上夜校。
If I were not busy, I would have come. 假若我不忙,我早就来了。
也可用 if I had been you也表示过去:
If I had been you,Id have taken the job. 我要是你,我就接受那份工作了。
