Answer 1

B

試題分析：句意：別把這花瓶拿得跟它好像是用鋼做的似的。as if“仿佛，好像”其后內(nèi)容若與事實(shí)不符則用虛擬語氣，花瓶不是用鋼做的，因此選擇B。若其后發(fā)生的可能性較大則用陳述語氣。
點(diǎn)評：近幾年的高考多次出現(xiàn)了考查虛擬語氣的試題，需要考生要熟記一些虛擬語氣的各種用法。as if 從句用虛擬語氣的情況是當(dāng)說話人認(rèn)為句子所述的是不真實(shí)的或極少有可能發(fā)生或存在的情況時(shí)。從句虛擬語氣動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)的形式如下：
（1）如果從句表示與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反，謂語動(dòng)詞用一般過去時(shí)
如： You look as if you didn’t care． 你看上去好像并不在乎。
He talks as if he knew where she was． 他說話的樣子，好像他知道她在哪里似的。
（2）從句表示與過去事實(shí)相反，謂語動(dòng)詞用“had＋過去分詞”。
如： He talks about Rome as if he had been there before． 他說起羅馬來好像他以前去過羅馬似的。
The girl listened as if she had been turned to stone． 那女孩傾聽著，一動(dòng)也不動(dòng)，像已經(jīng)變成了石頭似的。
（3）從句表示與將來事實(shí)相反，謂語動(dòng)詞用“would／could／might＋動(dòng)詞原形”。
如： He opened his mouth as if he would say something． 他張開嘴好像要說什么。
It looks as if it might snow． 看來好像要下雪了。
即學(xué)即練：He felt as if he alone ___ what had happened.
A. be responsible to B. should be responsible to
C. be responsible for D. were responsible for
解析：D 句意：他感覺唯獨(dú)他一個(gè)要承擔(dān)事情的責(zé)任。
