牛津实用英语语法:237 should的其他用法

  A 当说话人对某种设想是否合理或正当提出疑问时,可把

  should用于 can t think why/dont know why/see no reason why:等后面:

  I dont know why you should think that I did it.

  我真不知道你凭什么竟会认为这件事是我干的。

  I see no reason why you should interfere in their quarrel.

  我不明白你有什么理由竟然会介入他们的争吵。

  当这种设想与过去的事情有关时则用完成式:

  I cant think why he should have said that it was my fault.

  我真不明白他怎么能说这是我的过错。

  B 作为一种惯用表达法,should与 what,where,who连用以形象生动地表达惊奇的感情:

  What should I find but an enormous spider!

  怎么也想不到我看见的竟是一只巨大的蜘蛛!

  这种惊奇经常掺杂着令人为难的因素:

  Who should come in but his first wife!

  怎么也想不到进来的竟是他的前妻!

  C should用在 lest后面,有时也用在 in case后面:

  1 在书面语中,lestshould结构有时放在表示惧怕或担心的词后面:

  He was terrified lest he should slip on the icy rocks.

  他害怕在结冰的石块上滑倒。

  对过去的动作表示担心时用should+完成式:

  She began to be worried lest he should have met with some accident.

  她开始担心他出了什么事。

  2 lest也可用于目的从句,表示 for fear that(惟恐):

  He dared not spend the money lest someone should ask where he had got it.

  他不敢花这笔钱,怕有人问他钱是从哪儿来的。

  如上所示这是一种书面形式。

  在这种情况下 in case较 lest更常用,后面可跟 should或一般现在时或一般过去时:

  in case someone should ask/someone asked

  惟恐万一有人问起

  D should 有时用于目的从句以代替 would/could:

  He wore a mask so that no one should recognize him.

  E 在条件句中用should代替现在时态:

  If the pain should return take another of these pills.

  F should 还用于颇为正式的间接命令,这种命令不一定是向对方直接发出的:

  与下面一句比较一下:

  He ordered Tom to leave.

  他命令汤姆离开。(他亲自告诉汤姆。)
