在剛才那組練習里我們用 "也許" maybe 加上 would 再加上完成時態作了一 些假設性句子, 這種說法也可以改用 might 加上完成時態來表達. 比方:
Maybe he would have become a history teacher. 可以改為 He might have become a history teacher. 下面我們作一組練習把這兩種說法作個比較.首先 請你注意聽老師用第一種說法說一句話,然后請你跟學生一起改用代名詞跟 第二種說法把那句話表達出來.下面就是一個例子:
M: If Bill had been in Kate's class, maybe he would have become a history teacher.
F: If he had been in her class, he might have become a history teacher.
現在我們開始作練習.
M: If Bill had been in Kate's class, maybe he would have become a history teacher.
F: If he had been in her class, he might have become a history teacher.
M: If Bill had been in Kate's class, maybe he would have thought that history was fascinating.
F: If he had been in her class, he might have thought that history was fascinating.
M: If Bill had been in Kate's class, maybe he would have thought that history was exciting.
F: If he had been in her class, he might have thought that history was exciting.
M: If Kate had been in Bill's class, maybe she would have become a gym teacher.
F: If she had been in his class, she might have become a gym teacher.
M: If Kate had been in Bill's class, maybe she would have thought that history was boring.
F: If she had been in his class, she might have thought that history was boring.
M: If Kate had been in Bill's class, maybe she would have thought that history was just names and dates.
F: If she had been in his class, she might have thought that history was just names and dates.
下面我們用美國歷史作例子, 學學跟過去事實相反的說法. 練習的作法是老 師用過去時態說出美國歷史上的一項事實,比方"移民來到美洲; 殖 民地因此 成立." The immigrants came to America. The colonies were established. 學生 就把句子改成:"如果移民沒有到美洲, 殖民地就不會成立." If the immigrants hadn't come to America, the colonies wouldn't have been established. 在這組練 習里有些新詞匯,比方 "壓迫" oppress, "革命" revolution,"打敗" defeat,"奴隸" slave 等等. 請你注意聽. 學生作句子的時候請你也一起作.
M: The immigrants came to America. The colonies were established.
F: If the immigrants hadn't come to America, the colonies wouldn't have been established.
M: The taxes were raised.The colonists were unhappy.
F: If the taxes hadn't been raised, the colonists wouldn't have been unhappy.
M: The colonists were oppressed. There was a revolution.
F: If the colonists hadn't been oppressed, there wouldn't have been a revolution.
M: The colonists fought the revolution against the British. They gained independence.
F: If the colonists hadn't fought the revolution against the British, they wouldn't have gained independence.
M: The colonists gained independence. The U.S. became a country.
F: If the colonists hadn't gained independence, the U.S. wouldn't have become a country.
M: France needed money. It sold a piece of land to the U.S.
F: If France hadn't needed money, it wouldn't have sold a piece of land to the U.S.
M: The U.S. bought that piece of land. The size of the U.S. doubled.
F: If the U.S. hadn't bought that piece of land, the size of the U.S. wouldn't have doubled.
M: People of Texas fought a war against Mexico. They became independent.
F: If people of Texas hadn't fought a war against Mexico, they wouldn't have become independent.
M: Texas became independent. It joined the U.S.
F: If Texas hadn't become independent, it wouldn't have joined the U.S.
M: The U.S. defeated Mexico. California and New Mexico became part of the U.S.
F: If the U.S. hadn't defeated Mexico, California and New Mexico wouldn't have become part of the U.S.
M: The North won the Civil War. Slaves were freed.
F: If the North hadn't won the Civil War, slaves wouldn't have been freed.
