语法46

·3、含蓄条件句

有时假设的情况并不以条件从句表示出来，二是暗含在上下文中，比如通过介词短语来表示。这些介词常是：but for,without,otherwise等。如：But for your advice, I could not have done it so successfully.

如果不是听了你的建议，我就不会做的如此成功。The change could not have taken place without the open-door policy.

没有开放的政策，就不会有如此大的变化。I was so busy then, Otherwise, I would have told him the answer.

我当时很忙，否则，我就会把答案告诉他的。

，11l marry him all the same.

A.Was he rich or poor

B.Whether rich or poor

C. Were he rich or poor

D. Be he rich or poor

·答案为D。whetherit be···or···意为不管\不论是···还是···，表示让步，为虚拟语气的一种表示方法，其省略结构为be it···or ···be he···or···等，必须倒装。Be he rich or poor相当于

Whether he was rich or poor

例如：Every day he takes a walk in the par in the evening, whether it be fine or raining.

Be the weather what it may, I will leave

tomorrow.

Be it true or not, I will see myself.

4、省略if的条件从句

当从句中有were，had或should时，可省略if，而把它们放在句首。

If I were to meet him tomorrow, I should ask him about it.

Were I to meet him tomorrow...

If he should fail in the experiment this time, he would try again.

Should he fail in the experiment...

If you had come a few minutes earlier, you would have met him.

Had you come a few..

假设条件虚拟倒装。条件从句中有should，were，had三个助动词可以把f省略，并将这三个词提至句首。

If I were you, I would give it up.

Were I you, I would give it up.

If it were not for your advice, we couldn't have got over the difficulties.
