(1)It might help a little if only you would keep clean. 你只要愿意保持清潔,可能就會(huì)好一些。
(2)If you left at ten, you should arrive in time. 你如十點(diǎn)動(dòng)身,你就會(huì)及時(shí)到達(dá)。(should意味著可能)
(3)I couldn't be angry with him if I tried. 我即使想生他的氣,也做不到。
(4)If I hadn't warned you, you could have been killed. 我如不是警告了你,你就可能喪命了。
(5)If he were wise, he should have come to see me. 他如若聰明,就應(yīng)該來見我。
[注]在I should not take this medicine, if it would upset you.(如果此藥使你感到不適,那我也不用它了)一句中,if從句之后省去了另一if從句,即if you took it,所以would在此是助動(dòng)詞,而不是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞。
情態(tài)動(dòng)詞may(might)是一種特殊的虛擬語(yǔ)氣,它可以用在從句中表目的、讓步。如:
(6)I must learn English well so that I may serve the people better. 我必須學(xué)好英語(yǔ),以便更好地為人民服務(wù)。(非正式文體用can)
(7)He died in order that others might be saved. 他為了拯救別人而死。(非正式文體用could)
在讓步從句中多用may.如:
(8)We must observe the customs of the country, whatever they may be. 不論怎樣,我們都必須遵守本國(guó)的習(xí)俗。
(9)However hard it may rain, we shall have to go. 不論雨多大,我們都得走。
may還可以用在獨(dú)立句中表祝愿。如:
(10)May you be happy! 愿你幸福!
(11)Long may you live! 愿你長(zhǎng)壽!
