虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的運(yùn)用:
A)用于賓語從句中。
wish +從句,表示不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)的愿望。
wish that…had done…(過去)
wish that…did/were… (現(xiàn)在)
wish that… would/could do…(將來)
如:
We wish we had arrived there two hours earlier.
I wish I were a bird.
I wish you could come tomorrow.
用于表示建議、愿望、命令等詞后的賓語從句中,常見的動(dòng)詞有:suggest, insist, command, advise, desire, order, request, require, demand that…(should) do…

We insisted that she (should) go with us.
He suggested that we (should) start off early the next day.
The doctor ordered that the patient ( should ) be sent to hospital without delay.
They insisted that the boy (should ) go with them.
注意:當(dāng)suggest表示“暗示、表明”之意時(shí),不用虛擬語氣,應(yīng)用陳述語氣。如:
The smile on his face suggested that he was satisfied with out work.
當(dāng)insist表示“堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為”之意時(shí),不用虛擬語氣,應(yīng)用陳述語氣。如:
The man insisted that he had never stolen the money.
在would rather, had better 后的賓語從句中,也用虛擬語氣,其構(gòu)成為動(dòng)詞過去式。如:

It is strange that he should have acted toward his parents like that.
注:以上句式也可以用陳述語氣。如:

三、虛擬語氣用在as if (as though), even if (even though)等引導(dǎo)的表語從句或狀語從句中。

He looks as if he were an artist.
She speaks English so fluently as if she had studied English in Ameirca.
Even if he were here, he could not solve the problem.
