It’s time the child ______ to bed.
A. goes B. going C. went D. to go
此題應選C。關于It’s time＋that從句, 注意以下幾點：
1. 從句謂語通常用過去時態或should＋動詞原形：
It’s time we started. 我們該動身了。
It is time that you left here. 你該離開這兒了。
It’s time you studied hard. 你該努力學習了。
有時也用should+動詞原形或用過去進行時, 有時甚至將should省略(即只用動詞原形, 為非正式的美國口語)：
我們該走了。
正：It is time we left. (常見)
正：It is time we should leave. (可用)
正：It is time we were leaving. (可用)
正：It is time we leave. (少見, 非正式美國口語)
2. 其它幾點注意處：
(1) 其中的It is有時根據情況也可改為It was, 其后的時態不受影響：
你該上床睡覺了。
正：It is time you went to bed. (指現在而言)
正：It was time you went to bed. (指過去而言)
(2) time前可以用high, about等修飾。
It is high time you told her the truth. 你該把真相告訴她了。
It is about time that I wrote her a letter. 我該給她寫封信了。
9. 什么是含蓄虛擬語氣
He studied hard, otherwise he ______ so hard a test.
A. didn’t pass B. couldn’t pass C. hadn’t passed D. couldn’t have passed
此題應選D。其中的 otherwise 含蓄地暗示一種虛擬條件, 相當于if he hadn’t studied hard。
英語中用某種詞匯或語法手段含蓄地暗示虛擬條件的方式比較多, 下面略舉幾例, 供考生參考：
With more money [If I had more money], I could do it better. 要是我有更多的錢, 我會做得更好。
But for his help [If it were not for his help], we couldn’t get over the difficulties. 要是沒有他的幫助, 我們就無法克服這些困難。
I’m really busy, or[if I weren’t so busy] I wouldcertainly go with you. 我確實太忙了, 要不然我一定跟你們一塊兒去。
Meeting[If we had met] anywhere else, we couldn’thave recognized each other. 要是在別處見面, 我們倆彼此是不會認出來的。
To hear him speak English [If one were to hearhim speak English], one would think him anEnglishman. 你要是聽他說英語, 一定會認為他是一個英國人。
An honest man would not say this. [If he were anhonest man, he would not say this]. 一個誠實的人就不會說這樣的話。
