Question

If the president had visited the hospital this morning, it ________ the headline in tomorrow's paper.

A．will be

B．could be

C．had been

D．was

Answer 1

B

試題分析：考查虛擬語(yǔ)氣的用法。由had visited可以判斷條件狀語(yǔ)從句里是對(duì)過(guò)去的虛擬，而由tomorrow's paper可以看出主句是對(duì)將來(lái)的虛擬，謂語(yǔ)應(yīng)該用過(guò)去式(用be 時(shí)用were不能用was)或were to do；故選B
虛擬條件句中，主、從句的動(dòng)作若不是同時(shí)發(fā)生時(shí)，須區(qū)別對(duì)待。
①?gòu)木涞膭?dòng)作與過(guò)去事實(shí)相反，而主句的動(dòng)作與現(xiàn)在或現(xiàn)在正在發(fā)生的事實(shí)不符。如：If I had worked hard at school, I would be an engineer now, too.
如果我在學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)刻苦的話，我現(xiàn)在也會(huì)使工程師了
If they had informed us, we would not come here now.
如果他們通知過(guò)我們的話，我們現(xiàn)在就不會(huì)來(lái)這里了。
②從句的動(dòng)作與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反，而主句的動(dòng)作與過(guò)去事實(shí)不符。如：
If he were free today, we would have sent him to Beijing.
如果他今天有空的話，我們會(huì)已經(jīng)派他去北京了。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：本題較難。混合虛擬對(duì)于學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)是難點(diǎn)，學(xué)生看到了this morning，誤選C，本題的關(guān)鍵在于對(duì)于find這個(gè)動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)判定上。
即學(xué)即練：You _______ much better now if you had taken my advice.
A．will be            B．would be          C．had been            D．was
解析：B句意：假若你當(dāng)時(shí)聽(tīng)我的話，你現(xiàn)在就會(huì)好多了。
