答案与解析:

1. B。It’s time you did 为 It’s time you thanked Aunt Lucy for her present 之略。按照英语语法,it’s time 后从句通常要用过去式。

2. B。I’d rather 后接从句时,从句谓语的时态规律是:用过去式表示现在或将来,用过去完成式表示过去。

3. A。we can’t get there by tomorrow 为客观事实,故宜用陈述语气。

4. Dotherwise 在此相当于 if she had not walked away from the discussion,即暗示一个与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句。

5. D。insisted 接第一个宾语从句,表示“坚持认为(是怎么回事)”,用陈述语气;接第二个宾语从句,表示“坚决要求(做某事)”,用虚拟语气。

6. B。根据上文的语境可知句中的 or 隐含有一个虚拟的条件,即 or=if I didn’t forget where I read the article(要是我没忘记我在哪儿读过这篇文章的话——但事实上忘了)。

7. B。易受前面虚拟语气的影响而误选A。实际上前面虚拟语气的答语采用了省略形式。可补充为:I would have gone to yesterday’s meeting if I hadn’t been too busy. 所以be too busy是过去的一种实际情况,并不是虚拟的情况。故填空处用陈述语气。

8. B。因为necessary后的从句要用“(should+)动词原形”,排除选项A; 因he与send是被动关系,send要用被动式,排除选项D; 答句中的表语从句中不缺任何句子成分,用that。值得说明的是,refuse to后省略了be sent to New York。

9. C。they put forward为修饰名词demands的定语从句,按英语语法,当demand用作动词后接宾语从句,或用作名词后接定语从句或同位语从句时,从句谓语习惯上要用should+动词原形这样的虚拟语气,其中的should可以省略。

10. B。Should you be fired是由If you should be fired变来的,又如:Should you require (=If you should require) anything give me a ring. 如果需要什么,可以给我打电话。
