虛擬條件句時態的基本特點：虛擬條件句可以表示過去，現在和將來的情況，時態的基本特點是時態往后推移。

1. 對現在的虛擬;if條件從句用一般過去時（be用were），主句用should（would）等 +動詞原形。如;高三冊unit 8 8單元p69：If I hadn't piles of homework to do , I would relax. 如果我沒有成堆的作業要做，我就會輕松。（事實上我有許多作業要做，不能放松）注意：在虛擬語氣的從句中，動詞'be'的過去時態一律用"were"，不用was，即在從句中be用were代替。如： If I were you, I would go there. 如果我是你，我就會去那兒。

2. 對過去的虛擬:if條件從句用過去完成時(had done),主句用should（would）等+ have done.如：高三冊unit 8 p70：If it hadn't had a flat tyre , I should / would have lent my car to George that morning .如果車沒有一個癟輪胎的話，我那天上午會把車借給喬治的。（事實上車有一個癟輪胎，我那天上午沒有把車借給喬治）

3. 表示對將來不大可能發生的事情的虛擬:if條件從句用一般過去時（be用were）/were+ to do /should+ 動詞原形,主句用should/would等 + 動詞原形. 如：If you succeeded/ should succeed / were to succeed, everything would be OK. 如果你將來成功了，一切都會好的.
