   条件句类型(2)


  if从句中的动词用一般过去时,主句中的动词用条件时态:
  If I had a map I would lend it to you.
  我要有地图就借给你。(但我没有地图。句子的含义是指现在。)
  If someone tried to blackmail 1 me I would tell the police.
  如果有人企图敲诈我,我就向警察告发。(但我想不会有人敲诈我。句子的含义是指将来。)
  第一类和第二类条件句之间并不存在时间上的差别。像第一类条件句一样,第二类指的是现在或将来; if从句中的过去时不是真正的过去时,只是一种虚拟语气,表示不真实(如上述第一个例子)或不大可能(如上述第二个例子)。
  类型2有以下用法:
  1.所假设的事与已知的事实相反时:
  If I lived near my office I’d be in time for work.
  要是我住的离办公楼近,我上班就不会迟到。(但我不住在办公楼附近。)
  If I were you I’d plant some trees round the house.
  如果我是你的话,我就会在房子周围种一些树。(但我不是你。)
  2.说话人认为从句中的动作不会发生时:
  If a burglar 2 came into my room at night I’d scream.
  要是半夜三更窃贼闯进我的房间,我就会拼命叫喊。(但我不认为会有窃贼闯入我的房间。)
  If I dyed 3 my hair blue everyone would laugh at me.
  要是我把头发染成蓝色,大家就要笑我了。(但我不想染它。)
  有些if从句可以有上述两种含义中的一种:
  If he left his bicycle outside someone would steal it.
  要是他把自行车放在外面,会有人把它偷走。
  If he left his bicycle可以意指可他没有(如上述 1中的用法,指的是现在)或他没这么打算(如上述2中的用法,指的是将来)。但真正的含义通常从上下文中可以看清楚。
  这种语义混淆可以通过使用were/was+不定式而不用上述类型2中的一般过去时来避免。
  if he/she/it were可以代替 if he/she/it was,而且被认为是更正确的形式:
  If he were to resign…相当于:
  If he resigned…
  他万一(果真)要辞职的话……
  If I were to succeed…相当于:
  If I succeeded…
  我竟然(果真)会成功的话……
  were的这种用法主要见于相当正式的句子里。
  if he/she/it was+不定式在日常口语中是可以的,但是如上例所示那样使用过去时态更为常见。
  3 .有时类型2可以用做类型1的替代形式,表示完全有可能实现的计划和建议。这种用法颇易引起混淆:
  —Will Mary be in time if she gets the ten o’clock bus?
  —No, but she’d be in time if she go the nine-thirty bus./No, but she’ll be in time if she gets the nine-thirty bus.
  —如果玛丽赶上10点钟的公共汽车,她会及时到达吗?
  —不会的,但是如果她赶上9点30分的汽车,她就会及时到达。
  —We’ll never save£ 100!
  —If we each saved£ 10 a week we’d do it in ten weeks./If we each save £10 a week we’ll do it in ten weeks.
  —我们永远攒不了100英镑!
  —要是我们每人每周储蓄十英镑,我们在十周后就会做到。
  以类型2的形式表示建议要比以类型1的形式有礼貌些,就如同用would you表示要求要比will you更有礼貌一样。但学生不必在类型2的这种用法上花过多工夫。
  基本形式可能的变化形式
  1.主句的变化
  (a)可以用might或could而不用 would:
  If you tried again you would succeed.
  要是你再试一试,你会成功的。(可靠的结果)
  If you tried again you might succeed.
  要是你再试一试,可能会成功。(可能的结果)
  If I knew her number I could ring her up.
  要是我知道她的号码,就能给她打电话。(能力)
  If he had a permit he could get a job.
  要是他有许可证的话,就可以找到工作。(能力或允许)
  (b)可以用条件时态中的进行时而不用其一般时:
  —Peter is on holiday;he is touring Italy.
  —If I were on holiday I would/might be touring Italy too.
  —彼得在休假,他在意大利旅游。
  —如果我在休假,我也会(可能)在意大利旅游。
  (c)希望表达过去自动的或习惯性的反应时,可以在if+过去时后再跟一个过去时。注意:这里的过去时具有过去的含义:
  If anyone interrupted him he got angry.
  如果有人打扰他,他就会生气。(每当有人打扰他时)
  If there was a scarcity 4 of anything,prices of that thing went up.
  如果什么物品短缺,那种物品的价格就会上涨。
  (d)当if用来表示as或since的时候,主句中可能用各种时态。这里if+过去时态具有过去的含义。这种句子并不是真正的条件句。
  —The pills made him dizzy.All the same he bought/has bought/is buy-ing some more.
  —If they made him dizzy why did he buy/has he bought/is he buying more?
