wish后賓語從句用虛擬語氣

一、用法說明

動詞wish后接賓語從句時，從句謂語要用虛擬語氣。若要表示與現(xiàn)在事實相反的愿望，從句謂語用一般過去時或過去進行時；若表示與過去相反的愿望，從句謂語用過去完成時或would / could+have +過去分詞；若表示將來沒有把握或不太可能實現(xiàn)的愿望，用would (could)＋動詞原形。如：

I wish I were not so busy. 但愿我不那樣忙碌。

I wish I were [was] better looking. 要是我長得漂亮些就好了。

She wished she had stayed at home. 她后悔的是她當(dāng)時要是留在家里就好了。

I wish you would go with us tomorrow. 要是你明天同我們一起去就好了。

I wish you wouldn’t look down on this kind of work. 我希望你不要看不起這種工作。

This watch has gone wrong. I wish I had bought a better make. 這只表壞了，我真愿意我買的是好一點的牌子。

I wish you wouldn’t smoke any more. 我希望你不再抽煙了。

I wish you would be more respectful to your father. 我希望你對你父親更尊敬些。

I wish I could be of some use. 我希望我能有什么用處。

二、特別注意

從句的時態(tài)只與從句所指的時間有關(guān)，而與wish的時態(tài)無關(guān)，比較：

I wish I were rich. 要是我現(xiàn)在有錢就好了。

I wish I had been rich. 要是那時我有錢就好了。

I wished I were rich. 當(dāng)時我后悔自己沒有錢。

I wished I had been rich. 當(dāng)時我后悔自己曾經(jīng)沒有錢。
