1、条件句 Conditional条件句的结构：条件状语分句+主句第一种类型：真实条件句第一种类型：真实条件句 Real Conditional Real Conditional1.表示普遍真理和客观事实 Eg:If you heat ice,it melts.If you pour oil on water,it floats.由上述诸例可以看出，凡表示不受时间限制的自然法则的条件句，其从句和主句的谓语动词都用一般现在时：(If)simple present+(Main)simple (If)simple present+(Main)simple presentpresent2.表示现在习惯的动
2、作 Eg:If I make a promise,I keep it.If it rains,I go to work by car.在上述表示现在习惯动作的条件句中，从句和主句的谓语动词也都是用一般现在时：(If)simple present+(Main)simple present(If)simple present+(Main)simple present3.表示过去习惯动作 Eg:If I was hungry,I usually had a full meal.If I made a promise,I kept it.在上述表示过去习惯动作的条件句中，从句和主句的谓语动词都用一般过
3、去时：(If)simple past+(Main)simple past(If)simple past+(Main)simple past第二种第二种类型：真型：真实条件条件语句的主体句的主体这种句式可分为:“基本形式”(Basic Form)，“变体形式”(Variant Form)和“替换形式”(Alternative Form)1.基本形式基本形式(Basic Form)Eg:If it is fine tomorrow,we can have a picnic somewhere.If you wake up before me,give me a call.从上述诸例可以看出，这一类
4、型条件语句有两个基本形式：一是从句用一般现在时表示将来时间，主语用shall/will/can/may 等+不定式：(If)simple present+(Main)shall/will,etc+inf(If)simple present+(Main)shall/will,etc+inf二是从句用一般现在时表示将来时间，主句用动词祈使式：(If)simple present+(Main)imperative(If)simple present+(Main)imperative2.2.变变体形式体形式(Variant Form)(Variant Form)这种形式又有三种分类从句动词不管主语的人
5、称和数如何，一律用 should+不定式，主句动词可根据语义意图采用不同形式。Eg:If it should rain again,the flowers will bloom.If I should be detained,start the program without me.在这里，should 仅表示一种不太肯定的婉转口气，并不影响条件的真实性。在if-分句中用“will+不定式”并不单纯表示将来意义，这里的 will 是个表示“意愿”的情态助动词，相当于 be willing to Eg:If you will reserve seats,we shall be sure of a
6、 comfortable journey.If he will accept the nomination(提名),a lot of electors will vote for him.要知道这种带“will+不定式”的if-分句在某些场合是不可以随便用的，比如我们可以说：If he gets my letter in time,hell be able to change his plans.却不可以说：If he will get me letter in time,hell be第二种类型：真实条件语句的主体第二种类型：真实条件语句的主体第二种类型：真实条件语句的主体第二种类型：真实条
7、件语句的主体在if-分句中用 would，有表示“意愿”的意思，常用语客气的请求，这时，主句动词既可以用 will/shall+不定式，也可用 would/should/could/might+不定式 Eg:If you would kindly wait a moment,Ill see what I can do.If you would try Italian food,you would like it.如果表示“意愿”的would不是用于客气的请求，那么，在一定上下文中也可能表示不大可能实现的“意愿”，这就属于非真实条件句，即第三种类型的条件句的一种变体形式。3.3.替替换形式形式(
8、Alternative Form)(Alternative Form)Set your alarm clock,and you wont oversleep.=If you set your alarm clock,you wont oversleep.Set your alarm clock,or(else)youll oversleep.=If you dont set your alarm clock,youll oversleep.第三种类型：非真实条件句第三种类型：非真实条件句 Unreal Conditional Unreal Conditional基本形式：(If)simple
9、past/were+(Main)would,etc+infEg:If we caught the 10 oclock train,we would(could,might,etc)get there by lunch-time.if-分句说表示的条件在说话人看来实现的可能性不大，但还是有可能的，比如说话时间已经是九点多钟，尚未动身，因而不大可能赶上十点钟的火车，也不大可能在吃午饭以前到达。If I came into a fortune,I would give up working.if-分句表示的条件came into fortune 显然是一种主观臆想，几乎不可能实现。If I knew
10、 how it worked,I could tell you what to do.if-分句所表示的条件根据上下文显然与现在的事实相反。变体形式：(If)were to+inf+(Main)would,etc+inf要注意表示非真实条件的were to 与表示“义务”(Obligation)的am/is are to 和was/were to的区别：If he were to get in touch with me.I could explain.=Supposing he got in touch with me,(非真实条件)If he was to get in touch wit
11、h me,why hasnt he done so?=If the arrangement was that he should get in touch with me,why?(表示“义务”)另一种变体形式就是在从句中用would+不定式，表示不大可能实现的“意愿”。第四种第四种类型：与型：与过去事去事实相反的非真相反的非真实条件句条件句基本形式:(If)had+-ed 分词+(Main)would(could,might,etc)have+-ed 分词 Eg:We would/could/might have called you if we had known your telepho
12、ne number.If we had caught that plane,we could have been taking part in the celebrations.第三种类型与第四种类型的条件句的动词形式有相对的固定性，若要混合使用，则要注意句子的逻辑性。比如可以说：If you had told me to,I would have paid him.却不可以说：If you told me to,I would have paid him.这个句子的前半段（即从句）是第三种类型的条件句表示现在不大可能实现的条件，而后半段（即主句）却表示与过去事实相反的情况，前后在逻辑意义上不
13、相协调。但是在保证句子合乎逻辑的前提下，也可根据语义意图混合使用两种句型的动词形式。Eg:If writing had never been invented,we would have had no books.If writing had never been invented,we would have no books.变体形式：(If)were to have+-ed 分词+(Main)would(could,might,etc)have+-ed 分词 Eg:If you were to have asked me,I would have been only too willing
