13、用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时或其他形式的现在时）第2类条件句的形式与第一类不同，if从句中用一般过去时，谈论想像的情况，主句用would +动词原形，推测想像的结果：If it rained tomorrow, we'd stay at home. 如果明天下雨，我们将呆在家里。尽管第2类条件句使用过去时，却并非指过去的时间，所以if之后的过去时用法常被称为“非真实的过去”。第2类条件句有时可以代替第1类条件句来描述颇有可能发生的事情，但比第1类条件句较为“无把握”。If you went by train, you would get there earlier.如果你坐火车去，你

14、或许会早些到那儿。If you go by train, you will get there earlier.如果你坐火车去，你就会到得早些。不过第2类条件句经常用来描写完全不可能的事情：If I had longer legs, I'd be able to run faster. 如果我的腿再长一点儿，我就能跑得更快了。在第2类条件句中，were比was更为正式，与真实情况的差别也更大If he were/was ready, I would go. 如果他准备好了，我就去。if I were you这种说法经常用于提出建议：If I were you, I'd acce

15、pt their offer. 如果我是你，我就接受他们的建议。Exercise 1 用正确的动词时态填空 :1 He would enjoy this if he_(be) present.2 She can do better if she_(try).3 If you play with matches, you_(burn) your fingers.4 If you broke this window, you_(have to) pay for it.5 If you_(lose) your way, you would have to ask a policeman.6 It y
