英语过去将来时的用法大全
一、往期回顾
二、过去将来时
(一)定义
表示从过去的某一时间来看将来(仍然是过去时间)要发生的动作或呈现的状态。如:
She was fifty-eight then. In two years,she would be sixty. (她那时已经58岁岁了,在过两年,她就60了。)
第二句中的“两年后”并未没有到来,但整件事情又是描述的过去的事情,所以要用过去将来时。
(二)基本结构
过去完成时的句子结构一般为:
主语+would+动词原形+其他成分
如:
They would go hiking as soon as they finished their homework. (他们一完成作业,就会去远足。)
I didn't know how to do it. What would be their ideas? (我不知如何去做,他们会有什么想法呢?)
(三)主要用法
1、表示从过去的某一时间来看将来(仍然是过去时间)要发生的动作或呈现的状态。如:
He avowed that he would never return. (他声明他决不回来了。)
2、表示过去的某种习惯性行为。如:
Whenever we had trouble, he would come to help us. (每当我们遇到困难时,他总会给予帮助。)
3、表示强烈意愿。如:
I love my dog and I would never part with him. (我爱我的狗,决不愿和它分离。)
(四)常见句型
1、宾语从句中
当主句动词采用一般过去时的时候,其宾语从句中的谓语动词如果原本该用一般将来时的,但要改为过去将来时。这种用法主要出现在间接引语中。如:
I asked the man opposite if he would open the door. (我问对面的人他愿意不愿意开门。)
I always said he would wind up in jail. (我常说他到头来非进监狱不可。)
2、虚拟条件句中
在if引导的虚拟条件句中,其主句动词往往要采用would do的用法。如:
If he were you, he would reconsider my proposal. (他要是你,他会重新考虑我的建议。)
He would pass out if he took one more drink. (要是他再喝一杯酒的话,他就会醉倒了。)
3、as if/though引导的虚拟语气句型中
as if/though表示好像,其引导的从句谓语动词要采用虚拟语气,所以有的句子就要采用would do的用法。如:
I felt as if my heart would burst with joy. (我觉得自己高兴得心花怒放。)
He felt as though he would faint out. (他感觉彷佛要昏过去了。)
4、would rather句型中
would rather do表示宁愿做什么。如:
We would rather die than surrender. (我们宁死而不投降。)
I would rather die than live in disgrace. (我宁可死,也不愿忍辱偷生。)
5、would like to句型中
would like to do表示想要做什么。如:
I would like to have a word with you. (我想同你说句话。)
Many people would like to take holidays abroad. (许多人愿意到国外度假。)
(五)小试牛刀
用所给动词的适当形式填空。
