虚拟语气在as if/as though、even if/even though等引导的表语从句或状语从句中,
如果从句表示的动作发生在过去,用过去完成时;
指现在状况,则用一般过去时;
指将来状况则用过去将来时。
如:
He did it as if he were an expert.
Even if she were here, she could not solve the problem.
it seems as if 那看上去好象....常用虚拟语气
as if (= as though) 意思是“好像……,仿佛……”,是个连词,引导方式状语从句。例如:
He makes it seem as if it were one of the best meals he has ever had.
关于as if 的用法比较复杂一些,请注意以下几个问题:
1. as if 引导的从句经常用虚拟语气。从上面的句子可以看出,主句都是现在时态,as if从句都是过去时态,这说明as if 从句表示的意思与事实不符或者相反。例如:
He walks as if he were drunk.
My neighbor treats the child as if he were their own son.
2. 但是,如果句子表达的意思与事实并没有什么不符,那么就不使用虚拟语气。例如:
He heard a noise, as if someone was breathing.
It looks as if it is going to rain.
3. as if 经常和look, seem 连用。例如:
She looks as if she is (were) ill, because her face is pale.
It seemed as if there was a fight between the two sides.
4. as if 从句中的主语如果和主句主语相同,而且谓语动词有be, 则从句主语和谓语经常省略。例如:
She stood at the gate as if (she was) waiting for someone.
The teacher shouted at the boy as if (he was) angry.
as if 后面接从句时,从句若表示与现在/过去的事实相反,用虚拟语气
若表示客观事实,则采用相应时态
这句话是真是条件句 从意义上看并没有虚拟
我觉的用is 说起来比较顺。老外都这样说。
seem,意思是好像。seem暗示有一定根据,且往往接近于事实。所以当seem用于一般现在时的时候,它往往是在陈述一个事实,就相当于在陈述一件事情,所引这时用的是一般现在时,而不是虚拟语气。
同样的例子还有:It seems as if it is going to rain this evening.今晚上看起来似乎要下雨。这也是在陈述一件事情,所以不用虚拟语气。
