Question:老师,wish后面还有其他动词形式可以用吗? Answer:可以,我们今天继续学习虚拟语气的其他应用。条件句和虚拟语气(8)I wish…/ If only…(2) Wish/If only +过去完成式: Reading: It’s a month later. Brad has left the flat. The two girls’ are talking about him. “It seems strange without Brad, doesn’t it ? “ Yes, I sometimes wish we hadn’t asked him to leave. He was a very nice guy really. He had a great sense of humour. I wish we’d tried to discuss things with him.” “I know. I wish I hadn’t criticized him so much.” “If only he hadn’t been so untidy.” “ If only he hadn’t smoked in the flat.” “If only, if only ! If only things had been different ! Why are we talking like this ? We can’t change the past.” 1.用 wish或 if only +过去完成式表示对过去发生过的或没有发生过的事情的遗憾。 I wish we hadn’t asked him to leave. (But they asked him to leave.) If only he hadn’t smoked in the flat. (But he smoked in the flat.) 2.在wish/if only.后面不用would have I wish we’d tried(had tried) to talk to each other more. (而不是I wish we would have tried.) 注意.在would rather后可用同样的结构: I would rather they came tomorrow. I would rather they had come the day before. 小练习: 完成句子: 1 They asked Brad to leave. Now they wish they ____ him to leave. 2.Brad was untidy. Now Louise says: “I wish he ____ so untidy.” 3.Brad smoked a lot. They wish he ____ in the flat. 上期答案: I 1 would do 2 wouldn’t leave 3 could persuade II 1 lived 2 had 3 didn’t smoke 小结:
