情態動詞和虛擬語氣二輪複習知識點

情態動詞和虛擬語氣二輪複習知識點

  考點一、虛擬語氣的基本用法

  1.與現在事實相反的虛擬語氣,基本結構為:主語+動詞的一般過去時(be動詞用were)+其他成分+if+should/would/could...+動詞原形+其他成分。例如:

  ①If it were not for the fact that she ______ sing,I would invite her to the party.

  A.couldn’t B.shouldn’t C.can’t D.might not

  解析 句意為:如果不是因為她不會唱歌的事實,我會邀請她來參加那次聚會的。that從句為同位語從句,描述的是事實,用陳述語氣。正確答案為C。

  2.與過去事實相反的虛擬語氣,基本結構為:主語+動詞的過去完成時+其他成分+if+should/would/could...+have done+其他成分。例如:

  If the weather had been better,we could have had a picnic.But it ______ all day.

  A.rained B.rains C.has rained D.is raining

  解析 句意為:如果天氣好的話,我們是能夠去野餐的,但是下了一天的雨。句子前半部分陳述的是與過去事實相反的事情,所以用了虛擬語氣。“下了一天的雨”是事實,所以用陳述語氣。因為是發生在過去的事實,所以正確答案為A。

  3.與將來事實相反的虛擬語氣,基本結構為:主語+動詞的一般過去時/should do/were to do+其他成分+if+should/would/could...+動詞原形+其他成分。例如:

  If I ______ plan to do anything I want to,I’d like to go to Tibet and travel through as much of it as possible.

  A.would B.could C.had to D.ought to

  解析 句意為:如果我能夠計劃做我想做的事情,我想去西藏並且儘可能多玩一些地方。句子描述的是與將來事實相反的事情,所以正確答案為B。

  考點二、含蓄虛擬條件句

  這樣的虛擬句不含有if從句,而是以but for/without/or/otherwise等引導的句子代替if從句,主句的謂語動詞的形式與前面虛擬語氣的基本用法相同。例如:

  Thank you for all your hard work last week.I don’t think we ______ it without you.

  A.can manage B.could have managed

  C.could managed D.can have managed

  解析 由語境可知這裡要表達的意思是:如果沒有你們辛勤的工作,我們不可能處理好這件事。很顯然,這是對過去發生的事實的虛擬,所以要用could have done,故應選B。

  考點三、主從句時間不一致的虛擬條件句

  在有些虛擬條件句中,主從句時間不一致,應根據不同情況區別對待。例如:

  It’s hard for me to imagine what I would be doing today if I ______ in love,at the age of seven,with the Melinda Cox Library in my hometown.

  A.wouldn’t have fallen B.had not fallen

  C.should fall D.were to fall

  解析 句意為:如果不是我在七歲時愛上家鄉的Melinda Cox圖書館的話,很難想象今天的我會是什麼樣子。主句描述的是與現在事實相反的事情,從句描述的是與過去事實相反的事情。正確答案為B。

  考點四、名詞性從句中的虛擬語氣

  在含有表示堅持、建議、命令、要求等含義的名詞性從句和在it做形式賓語或形式主語的複合句中,賓語補足語是necessary/strange/essential/natural/a pity/a shame等表示“驚奇、惋惜或者理應如此”等含義時,從句中的謂語動詞需用“should+動詞原形”,其中should可以省略。例如:

  —Don’t you think it necessary that he ______ to Miami but to New York?

  —I agree,but the problem is ______ he has refused to.

  A.will not be sent;that B.not be sent;that

  C.should not be sent;what D.should not send;what

  解析 問句句意為:難道你不認為必須把他送到邁阿密而不是紐約嗎?句子表示理應如此的意思。正確答案為B。

  情態動詞考點透析

  考點一、情態動詞基本含義的考查

  情態動詞的基本含義,一直是高考考查的重要內容。例如:

  1. The fire spread through the hotel very quickly but everyone______get out. A. had to B. would C. was able to D. could

  解析:考查情態動詞的基本含義。had to:不得不; would:表示意願或過去常常;could傾向於表示經過長期訓練而獲得的能力;was able to 表示經過努力而能夠做到的事或成功地做了某事。因此,答案是C。

  分析:高考對情態動詞基本含義的考查,仍然集中在常用的情態動詞上。對常用情態動詞的含義,要掌握的既準確又要全面,特別是shall, should, can, may 四個常用情態動詞的含義較多,不易理解,複習時應當引起重視。

  二、情態動詞表示推測的考查

  對情態動詞表示推測的.用法,是高考考查情態動詞的一個重要方面。例如:

  1. Sorry, I’m late. I______have turned off the alarm clock and gone back to sleep again .

  A. might B. should C. can D. will

  解析:might have done : (過去)可能做過某事;shouldhave done :本應該做某事。根據本句提供的情境I’m late 表明說話人可能把鬧鐘關上了。答案是:A。

  分析:高考對錶示推測的情態動詞集中在must, can, could, may, might上,準確掌握它們使用的場合,是解決問題的關鍵。Must 用於肯定陳述句,表示肯定推測;can, could用於疑問或否定陳述句,表示可能性推測;may, might用於陳述句,表示可能性推測;用於否定陳述句中,can’t (不可能)的語氣比may not(可能不)強。此外,還要注意有對過去和對現在兩種情況的推測,對過去推測用情態動詞+have done ,對現在推測用情態動詞+ 動詞原形。

  三、情態動詞表示虛擬的考查

  情態動詞+have+過去分詞表示與過去事實上相反的情況,也是高考單項選擇題涉及到情態動詞的一個重要方面。

  1. There was a lot of fun at yesterday’s party. You______come, but why didn’t you?

  A. must have B. should

  C. need have D. ought to have

  解析:ought to have done 表示本來應該做某事而實際沒做,should do 表示現在應該做某事,與題中 at yesterday’s party 表示的時間不一致。所以選D。

  分析:高考對情態動詞表示虛擬‘用法,表示與過去事實相反的情況。近幾年高考,主要側重should (not)have done 這一句式上,表示本來不該做卻做了或本來該做卻未做的事,在複習時,還應關注其它幾種虛擬形式,如need (not)have done 表示本來需要做而未做或本來不需要而做的事等等,以做到有備無患。

  考點四、情態動詞與助動詞混合考查

  1.Tom ,you didn’t come to the party last night?

  —I______, but I suddenly remembered I had homework to do .

  A. had to B. didn’t C. was going to D. wouldn’t

  解析:had to:不得不;didn’t:沒來;was going to:打算來;wouldn’t:不願來。句意:——湯姆,昨晚你沒來參加舞會嗎?——我本打算來,但我突然記起有作業要做。But是關鍵詞,所以答案是:C。

  2.Your phone number again? I______quite catch it .

  —It’s 86184867.

  A. didn’t B. couldn’t C. don’t D. can’t

  解析:記住電話號碼並非難事,未完全聽清楚電話號碼並非能力的事,此處只是說沒有完全聽清楚電話號碼,所以,應選A。

  【答案與解析】

  1.

  【解析】選B.It’s time you did 為 It’s time you thanked Aunt Lucy for her present 之略。按照英語語法,it’s time 後從句通常要用過去式。

  2.

  【解析】選A.雖然前有虛擬條件句, 後有使用了虛擬語氣的賓語,但 I don’t know 卻宜用一般現在時,因為 I don’t know 表述的是現在的真實情況,句意為“我要不是有幸遇到你,我真不知(指現在不知)我會做出什麼蠢事來”。

  3.

  【解析】選B.I’d rather 後接從句時,從句謂語的時態規律是:用過去式表示現在或將來,用過去完成式表示過去。

  4.

  【解析】選A.we can’t get there by tomorrow 為客觀事實,故宜用陳述語氣。

  5.

  【解析】選B.第一空填 knew,因為 I wish 後的賓語從句要用虛擬語氣(即用過去式表示現在的想法);第二空要填lives,即用陳述語氣,因為 where he lives 是一個客觀事實,而不是 I wish 的內容。

  6.

  【解析】選C.It’s time… / It’s high time… / It’s about time… 等後接從句時,從句謂語通常用過去式。

  7.

  【解析】選 B.此題涉及錯綜時間虛擬條件句,主句與現在事實相反,條件句與過去事實相反。句意為:要不是在七歲時就迷上了 Melinda Cox 圖書館,我真不能想像我如今會在做什麼。

  8.

  【解析】8. 選 D.這是otherwise 引出的含蓄虛擬語氣,再根據前面的 hesitated 可進一步知道這是與過去事實相反的虛擬語氣,由此可推知答案選 D.

  9.

  【解析】選 C.if only意為“要是……就好了”,其後的句子謂語要用虛擬語氣,同時根據 as the doctor instructed 中的過去時態可知從句是與過去事實相反,故選 C.

  10.

  【解析】選 A.without 引出的介詞短語為一個與現在事實相反的含蓄條件句。

  【答案】C

  11.

  【解析】.根據上文的語境可知句中的 or 隱含有一個虛擬的條件,即 or=if I didn’t forget where I read the article(要是我沒忘記我在哪兒讀過這篇文章的話——但事實上忘了)。

  【答案】B

  12.

  【解析】關鍵資訊是It looks as if he were drunk 中的虛擬語氣,句子既然用了虛擬語氣,也就是說,“他喝醉了”不是事實,只是他的言行好像是醉了,所以此題的最佳答案是D.

  【答案】 D.

  13.

  【解析】 由於空格後的 if 條件狀語從句的謂語用的是虛擬語氣(這是很重要的資訊),所以主句要用 would 而不用 will,即答案應選D.

  【答案】D

  14.

  【解析】按照英語習慣,would rather 後接that 從句時,從句謂語通常要用虛擬語氣,即用過去式表示現在或將來, 用過去完成時表示過去。

  【答案】C

  15.

  【解析】insist後的從句謂語有時用“should+動詞原形”這樣的虛擬語氣,有時不用,具體要看該謂語動詞所表示的含義。一般說來,若該謂語動詞所表示的動作尚未發生,或尚未成為事實,則用虛擬語氣;若該謂語動詞所表示的動作已經發生,或已經成為事實,則要用陳述語氣。分析上題的句意,可知只有選D最合適。

  【答案】D

  16.

  【解析】是因為時態前後有矛盾。由於主句謂語是would not have got,這表明是對過去事實作出的假設,所以從句謂語應該是 had given up,而不是像D項那樣用一般過去時。另外,當虛擬條件句中有 had, should, were 等詞時,通常可以省略 if,並將 had, should, were 提前置於句首。

  【答案】B

  17.

  【解析】It’s time you did 為 It’s time you thanked Aunt Lucy for her present 之略。按照英語語法,it’s time 後從句通常要用過去式。

  【答案】B

  18.

  【解析】第一空填 knew,因為 I wish 後的賓語從句要用虛擬語氣(即用過去式表示現在的想法);第二空要填lives,即用陳述語氣,因為 where he lives 是一個客觀事實,而不是 I wish 的內容。

  【答案】B

  19.

  【解析】 此題涉及錯綜時間虛擬條件句,主句與現在事實相反,條件句與過去事實相反。句意為:要不是在七歲時就迷上了 Melinda Cox 圖書館,我真不能想像我如今會在做什麼。

  【答案】B

  20.

  【解析】without 引出的介詞短語為一個與現在事實相反的含蓄條件句。

  【答案】A

  21.

  【解析】句意:萬一你被解僱,給你的醫療救助和其它方面的福利也不會被取消。

  【答案】B

  22.

  【解析】句意:你想象不到這麼一個表現良好的紳士竟然會對一個女士這麼粗魯。

  【答案】C

  23.

  【解析】shall此處表示“警告”。

  【答案】A

  24.

  【解析】B此處考查情態動詞表示推測的用法。should have done表示過去應該做而實際並沒有做,因此淘汰A項。would不用來表推測,因此淘汰C項。B基與D項雖然都可以表示推測,但B項表肯定意義而D項表示否定推測,意為“不可能”,根據句意:他肯定已完成了他的工作;不然,他就不會在海邊玩得那麼愉快了。可知此處需要肯定意義,因此淘汰D項。

  25.

  【解析】B本題考查情態動詞的用法。must表示推測只能用於肯定句,否定句用can或could 代替。shouldn’t have done 表示“本來不該而實際上卻做了某事”.needn’t have done表示“本來不必而實際上卻做了”均不合題意。本句的意思是:當事故發生時我不可能超過6歲。

  26.

  【解析】C should(按道理)應該;句意:既然你在駕校時做了大量練習,那麼透過這次考試理不應該有困難。

  27.

  【解析】B 第一句話使用了一般過去時,由此可知第二句話是對過去事情的猜測,需用must have done.本題意為“我正在高速公路上行駛,這時一輛警車跟隨著著這輛車從旁邊經過。它們一定是以至少每小時150公里的速度行駛。”故選B。A項表示“本應該……”,C項表示“本能夠……”不合題意。

  28.

  【解析】D 本題考查情態動詞的用法。句意是“我錯拿了別人的綠色 毛衣”,“那可能是Harry的,他總是穿綠色的毛衣”。四個選項中could表示推測。mustn’t 表示 “禁止”;has to 表示“不得不”;will 表推測時,表“肯定“語氣太強。

  29.

  【解析】B根據句意可知Catherine對對方為她打掃了房間表示感謝並提到對方本來不必為她打掃房間。很顯然對方打掃房間是過去所為,表達“去不必做某事”用needn’t have done sth.

  30.

  【解析】C本題考查情態動詞,從答語的後半句“我已經借到一本字典了”,可知前半句為“不必了”。故C正確。
