34.George is going to talk about the geography of his country,but I’d rather he_______ more on its culture.
A.focus B.focused C.would focus D.had focused
B 虚拟语气
George要谈论他国家的地理,我宁愿他更专注于国家的文化.
would rather+从句,是一个常用的虚拟语气句型 Would rather+从句,谓语一般用过去时来表示现在或将来.其意为“宁愿……,还是…… 好些”“一个人宁愿另一个人做某事”.引导从句的that常省略.在谈到过去的动作时,谓语则用过去完成时.
例如:
John wants to see me today.I would rather he came to tomorrow than today.约翰今天想去看我.我宁愿他明天来看我而不是今天.(句中came不是表示过去而是表示将来)
Don’t come tomorrow.I’d rather you came next weekend.明天别来.我希望你下周末来.
请注意 1) 如果谈到过去的动作,也就是表示过去已经发生的事情在选择上不恰当.此时,主句一般为I had rather ,其(that)从句则用过去完成时.
例如:
Would rather you had not done that.我真希望你没有做那件事.
2)如果只涉及主语本人而不涉及另一个人,则would rather之后不接that从句而接have done结构.
例如:
I would rather have gone to the theatre than stayed home night.我真希望昨天晚上去看了戏而不是呆在家里.
He would rather be poor than have got money by dishonest methods. 他宁可穷也不愿意用不诚实的手段获取金钱.
