Wish,if only和as if經(jīng)常用于虛擬語氣中,那么具體該怎么使用呢?請看例句:

4. He wished that he had practised the routines. 他希望他已經(jīng)處理完日常工作了。

(2)if only同wish一樣表示愿望,主要為難以實(shí)現(xiàn)的愿望。

1. The snow was soft and deep outside. If only he could get out to try his new sled. 外頭的雪下得柔軟又深厚,如果他能出去試試他的新雪橇該多好啊。

5. If only she would pass the English examination! 但愿她能通過英語考試!

6. If only I could get a ticket to the concert. 但愿我能夠買到音樂會的門票。

(3)as if表示說話人對當(dāng)時(shí)的情況表示懷疑,認(rèn)為其不真實(shí)或極少概率發(fā)生。

1. It looks as if it were in print. 看樣子它是根深蒂固的。

總結(jié)

Wish大家一定都不陌生了,而if only和as if從意思上來看也不難理解,這里要注意的是if only一般獨(dú)立使用,是沒有主句搭配的。
