(单词翻译:单击)

在英语中,混合条件句(mixed conditionals)或错综条件句通过不同的时态,来谈论与过去相反的情况所导致的现在可能发生的结果。这类句子的结构看似复杂,但如果理解了主句和从句之间的关系,就不难掌握它的用法。
 
用法总结
混合条件句的前半部分结构为“if + 过去完成时”,用来提出与过去事实相反或不符的情况;后半部分结构为 “would1 + 动词原形”,引出若之前提出的假象条件成立,现在可能发生的结果。注意,“if”从句在前时,从句后加逗号;“if”从句在后时,不加逗号。
 
If I had2 eaten breakfast, I wouldn't be hungry now. 
(实际上之前没有吃早饭,所以现在很饿)
 
If he had studied harder, he would have a better job.   
(实际上之前没有努力学习,所以现在的工作一般)
 
She wouldn't be late for the meeting3 if it hadn't been raining so hard.
(实际上之前雨很大,所以没能按时到达)
