问题 Just imagine every smoker is to give up smoking for the sake of their own and others’ health.
选项 A、shall
B、will
C、ought to
D、were to
答案 D
解析 答案是D。此句考查be动词were的虚拟式。也就是说，不管主语是什么人称，动词一律用were。该句表达了一种美好的愿望：“为了自己和他人的健康，所有的烟民都戒烟了。”这当然几乎是不可能发生的事情，所以其语气才使用了虚拟式。再以“Just imagine every citizen of the world were to refuse to use the internet…”一句为例，一般说来，跟随every citizen的be动词应该是单数的is或was，但因该句是个与现实对立的“虚拟式”，因此才会用were的形式来表示。值得注意的是，英语的“虚拟语气”是英语语法系统中占有相当位置的语法规则。再以“If you should succeed，everything would be alright．”和“If we missed the train，we should have to wait an hour for the next train．”两句为例。因为这两句均是对未来推测的条件句，因此will，shall和miss都用了过去时以证其“虚拟性”。除上述外，还有诸多形式的“虚拟式”的使用值得引起大家的注意。看看下面这几句：“It is strange that she should have behaved like this．”“Even though she were here．I should say the same thing．”“If it hadn’t been for his help，you should have failed the attempt．”，这些都是“虚拟式”语用案例。
