4、文翻译】当你游览伦敦时，首先看到的东西之一就是“大本”钟，即那座从英国广播公司的广播中全世界都可以听到它的声音的著名大钟。如果不是国会大厦在1834年被焚毁的话，这座大钟永远也不会建造。“大本”钟得名于本杰明.霍尔爵士，因为当建造新的国会大厦时，他负责建造大钟。此钟不仅外型巨大，而且走时也非常准确。格林尼治天文台的官员们每天两次派人矫正此钟。当大钟打点的时候，你可以从英国广播公司的广播中听到，因为钟塔上 接了麦克风。“大本”钟很多出差错。然而有一次，它却把时间报错。在钟塔上干活的一位油漆工把一只油漆桶挂在了一根指针上，把钟弄慢了！New words and expressions 生词和短语【

26、 bird, I could fly in the air. 如果我是一只小鸟，我就能在空中飞行。 I wish I could pass the examination. 我希望我能通过考试。 May you succeed!祝您成功！ 二虚拟语气在条件从句中的用法。 条件从句有两类，一是真实条件句，另一是虚拟条件句。如果假设的情况可能发生，是真实条件句，这种情况下谓语用陈述语气。if有表示“如果”的意思如： If time permits, well go fishing together.如果时间允许，我们就一起去钓鱼。 （主将从现）如果假设的情况是不存在的或不大可能发生的，则是虚拟条件

27、句。虚拟条件句就是对现实条件的一种虚拟假设，所假设的条件一般不符合事实或与事实相反或在现实中发生的可能性极小。根据时间的不同，虚拟条件句可分为三种，即与现在事实相反的虚拟条件句、与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句及与将来事实相反的虚拟条件句。如： If you had come yesterday, you would have met that famous professor. 如果你昨天来，你就会见到那位著名的教授了。（隐含的事实是：你昨天没来，也没见到那位著名教授） 在含有虚拟条件句的复合句中，主从句的谓语都要用虚拟语气，现将其形式列表如下： 区分 条件从句 主句 与现在事实相反 If主语过去

28、式（从句中系动词be多用were形式） 主语would/should/could动词原形 与过去事实相反 If主语had过去分词 主语would/should/couldhave过去分词 与将来事实相反 If主语过去式/should动词原形/were to动词原形 主语would/should/could动词原形动词形式 时间从句主句 与现在事实相反动词过去式从句用过去式(be的过去式用were) 主句would(could/should/might)+动词原形 与过去事实相反从句用had+动词过去分词 主句用would(could/should/might)+have过去分词 与将来事实可能

29、相反动词过去式 从句用should+动词原形 主句用would(could/should/might)+动词原形 或者were to+动词原形would(could/should/might)+动词原形 注：主句中的should只用于第一人称，但在美国英语中，should常被would代替；从句中的should可用于各种人称。 1表示与现在事实相反的假设和结果。如： If I were you, I should(would ,could, might)tell him the truth. 要是我是你，我就会告诉他真相了。（事实上我不是你） If she had time, she woul

30、d(could, might)help me. 如果她有时间，她就会帮我了。（事实上她没有时间） 2 表示与过去事实相反的假设和结果。如： If I had known your telephone number yesterday, I should(would, could, might)have telephoned you. 如果昨天我知道了你的电话号码，我就会给你打电话了。（事实上我昨天不知道你的电话号码。） If you had taken my advice, you wouldnt(couldnt) have failed in the exam.如果你听了我的建议，你就不会考试不及格。（事实上你根本没听我的） 3 表示与将来事实可能相反的假设和结果。如： If it should rain, the crops would(could, might)be saved. 假如天下雨，庄稼可能就收获了。 -What would happen if I put the paper on the fire？ -It would burn. -我若把只放在火上会怎么样？ -纸会烧着。 注：在表示与将来事实可能相反的条件从句中，were to + 动词原形比较正式，常用于书面语中。如： If you were to
