英语四级语法的考查重点（二）

        A.could have slept B.slept
        C.might have slept D.have slept (1995.6)
        由于might表示"也许"，与这里的意思不合，只能用A。
        表示将来不可能实现的情况用would/might + 原形动词。
        How I wish you would be able to come here for another visit.
       
        ⑤ If only 表示愿望时与wish用法相同。再如：
        If only that photograph weren't missing.
        If only the letter had arrived in time.
       
        ⑥ would rather
        would rather的虚拟语气形式在这几年考查是最多的，有7道题，但would rather从句的时态规则并不复杂。
