关于otherwise的虚拟语气！

关于otherwise的虚拟语气！

选A

解析之前，先明确一个概念-含蓄条件句

含蓄条件句:在特定的上下文或一目了然的情况下，if条件句可以省略，或使用介词短语、副词或非谓语动词等形式来代替if条件句，这种虚拟语气表达形式叫做含蓄条件句。

此句中otherwise作副词暗示条件."otherwise "相当于 if I hadn't got stuck in the heavy traffic.

全句还原成“if"引导的虚拟条件句如下：

I "got stuck"in the heavy traffic.

otherwise= ,I here earlier.

注：get的过去分词形式有两种：got/gotten

P.S.

提问者的困惑，我想是把otherwise所在的整个句子理解成一个条件句了，而

otherwise作为副词，本身就暗含条件。所以你所指的那些If 引导虚拟条件句，主从句时态格式仍是按对现在，过去，将来虚拟所用时态。希望我读懂了提问者未表达出的意思。

扩展内容（以下内容为网络引用非原创）

很多情况下，在表示假设的虚拟语气中，有时假设的条件并不以条件从句的形式表达，而是通过上下文或句中内在的逻辑关系，或用其它形式表达出来，我们称之为"含蓄条件句"。含蓄条件句主要通过名词、连接词、不定式、分词、动名词短语、介词短语及分句来暗示。这些表达形式在句中实际起着虚拟条件从句的作用。现分述如下：

一、介词短语

常用来表示虚拟条件的介词有with,without,in,under,but for等等，它们表示的虚拟条件都可以被if从句替换。

(1)without,with ,without表示否定的条件，意为if...not;with与without意义相反，表示肯定的条件。如：

Without air,there would be no living things.(without air＝if there were no air)没有空气，便没有生物。

With her help(＝If I had her help),I would do the experiment well.假如有她帮助，我就可以把这个实验做好。

(2)under

Under the leadership of a less experienced person，the experiment would have failed.(under...＝If there had been the leadership of a less experienced person)假设在一个缺少经验的人领导下进行实验，实验准会失败。

(3)in

I would have lost my head in that position.(in that position＝if I had been in that position)我处在那种情况下，是会丧失理智的。

(4)but for

But for their help(＝If it were not for their help),we could not get over the difficulties.要不是他们的帮助，我们是克服不了这些困难的。

二、连接词or ,otherwise,but,but that等等

I'm really busy,otherwise(＝if I weren't so busy),I would certainly go with you.我确实太忙了。不然的话，我一定和你一块去。

But that I saw it(＝If I had not seen it),I could not have believed it.要不是亲眼看见的话，我是不会相信的。

三、分词短语

United(＝If they had been united),they wouldn't have been defeated.他们要是团结起来，就不会被打败。

Seen from a high mountain(＝If it were seen from a high mountain),the field in which wheat is growing would look like a great green sea.倘若从高山上看，麦田就像一片碧绿的大海。

四、动词不定式短语

It would be only partly right to answer in this way.(＝if we answered in this way)如果这样回答，只对一部分。

To hear him speak English(＝If one were to hear him speak English),one would think him an Englishman.要是听他讲起英语来，人们会认为他是一个英国人。

五、形容词或其比较级的形式

A less difficult problem would have already been solved.(＝If the problem had been less difficult,it would have already been solved.)要是问题不那么难的话，它早就被解决了。

An honest man would not do such a thing.(＝If he were an honest man,he would not do such a thing.)诚实的人是不会做这种事的。

六、名词

An honest man would not say this.(＝If the man were honest,he wouldn't say this.)一个诚实的人，就不会说这种话。

Who but a fool(＝If one were a fool,one)would believe his words.除了傻瓜，谁会相信他的话！

七、"名词＋and"的结构

One step further and you would be dead.(＝If you took one step further,you would be dead.)再往前走一步，你就会死。

八、独立主格结构或由with引导的复合结构

All things considered(＝If all things were considered),the price would be reasonable.如果全面考虑起来，价格可能是合理的。

九、定语从句

A nation which stopped working would be dead in a fortnight.(＝If a nation stopped working,it would be dead in a fortnight.)如果一个国家停止工作，不出半个月就会灭亡。

If you still feel confused,leave a message please

祝学习进步！！！

是C

后半句，otherwise句是对过去的虚拟。前半句不是虚拟语气。

D不选.should

是对未来的虚拟，这里不通。或者，SHOULD解释为应该，也不通

C.我觉得这是个虚拟语气的问题，跟otherwise关系不大

虚拟语气有学过了吗？最典型的就是if ... had done sth, ...would have done sth.

懂吗？

我觉得这题就是这个原理
