(1). If it is sunny tomorrow, we’ll go to t

he zoo.

如果明天天气好 , 我们将会去公园。 在这句话中 , 明天天气好是完全有

可能实现的 , 并非虚拟、幻想 , 因此是真实条件句。

请比较：

(2). If I were you , I would go at once.

( 如果我是你的话 , 我立刻就走。 ) 这句话是条件句 “如果我是你” , 但事实上 , 我不可能成为你 ,

这只是假设的情况 , 没有实现的可能。当条件实现的可能性很小 , 甚至可以说没有时 , 就需要用虚拟语气来表示 ,

动词发生了变化。

也就是说虚拟语气表示和现实的事实相反时，从句用一般过去时 , 主句用 “ should/would/could/ might

+ 动词原形” 。

• If I had time, I would go for a walk.

• If I were invited, I would go to the

dinner party.

• If I won a million dollars in the

lottery, I would put it in the bank.

2. He doesn’t know if he should bring a pre

sent.

此处 if 表示“是否” , 引导宾语从句。should 此处表示“应该” , 不是虚拟语气。

　 ① . I don’t know if I should go to the part

y.

If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.

if 引导的条件状语从句表示与现在事实相反的虚拟语气时 , be 动词只能用 w

ere, 而不能用 was 。

e. g. If he were here, he would not ag

ree with you.

4. I don’t have a present. What if eve

ryone else brings a present?

What if… “ 如果……怎么办 ? ” 相当于 what would happen if…

e. g. What shall I do if it snows?

1. What you (do )if you had a lot of money ?

2. What would you do if you (win) millions of dollars ?

3. If I (be ) you , I’d go to see a film.

5. If I got much money , I’d give it to ( 医学研究 ).
