二、過去時態(tài)類
    英語中,還有一些詞或短語后接的從句或句子,也要使用虛擬語氣,虛擬語氣是通過句中的謂語使用過去的某種時態(tài)(如:一般過去時、過去完成時等)來體現(xiàn)的。
    1. wish , would rather 后的賓語從句。如:
    He wished he had never been involved in such affairs.
    I would rather you could teach me again.
    2. as if, as though引導(dǎo)的從句。如:
    The little boy knows so many things as if he was a man.
    He acted as usual as though nothing had happened.
    3.由if only (要是……,那該多好啊!)引導(dǎo)的驚嘆句。如:
    If only I had passed the test !
    If only it stopped raining!
    4. It is(about/high) time 后的定語從句。如:
    It is time we went out for a walk.
    It was high time they had begun to prepare the experiment.
    虛擬語氣的其它用法
