条件句和虚拟语气(7

I wish…/ If only…1

Reading

Louise, Melissa and Brad all share flat just outside London. The two girls don’t like some of Brad’s habits.

“I wish Brad would stop smoking. The whole flat smells of cigarette smoke.”

“And I wish he wouldn’t leave his clothes everywhere. He’s so untidy.”

“And he never does any housework.. If only he’d do the washing up sometimes.”

“I sometimes wish we could persuade him t leave,. If only he’d go and find another flat !”

“I wish I could just say to him 'Brad, we’d like you to leave.’ But it’s difficult.”

IWish /If only + would

1.用wishif only + would表示希望某事或某人有所变化或希望某人做某事。

I wish Brad would stop smoking.(Brad smokes; they want him to stop.)

I wish he wouldn’t leave his clothes everywhere.

(Brad leaves his clothes everywhere. They want him to be more tidy.)

2.在I wish I I wish we…后面不用would,在I wish I I wish we…后面用could表示对现在或过去所不可能的事情的遗憾。  

I wish I could just say to him “Brad, we’d like you to leave.”

(而不是 I wish I would just say to him…)

I wish we could persuade him to leave.)

( 而不是I wish we would persuade him to leave.)

3I wish… If only同义,只是If only的语气更强烈。  

If only he’d go and find another flat!

小练习I. 完成下列句子:

1.Melissa wishes that Brad _____the washing-up occasionally.

2.Louise: “Brad, I wish you __ leave your clothes everywhere.”

3.Melissa : “If only we ____ persuade Brad to find another flat.”

II.Wish/If only  + 一般过去式/过去进行式 

Reading

Brad works in central London. He’s talking to Louise and Melissa.

“I wish the flat was nearer the office. It’s a long way to travel every day.”

“Yes, I bet you wish you had a nice flat in Chelsea.”

“Too expensive. I wish you I was earning a lot more money.”
“Well, why don’t you give up smoking, then you’d save some money ?”

“I wish I didn’t smoke, but I can’t stop.”

“Yes, you could, if you tried.”

“You’re criticizing me again ! If only you two were more tolerant. Sometimes I wish I lived on my own, then I could do what I want!”

1wish (if only)+ 一般过去式/过去进行式表示对现在的情形的遗憾。

I wish I didn’t smoke .(He smokes, but he regrets it.)

I wish the flat was nearer the office.(It isn’t near the office.)

I wish I was earning a lot more money. (He isn’t earning a lot more money.)

注意,这儿不用would,不说 “I wish the flat would be nearer the office.’

注意,在这个句式中,在 I , he, the flat,等词充当主语时,谓语动词可以用 was were

I wish the flat was( were) nearer the office.

I wish I was ( were) earning a lot more money.

小练习II  完成句子:

1. Brad wishes he (live) in his own flat.

2. He wishes he (have) a lot of money.

3.He wishes he (not smoke).
