#我們一起學英語#
這一講，我們學習美國英語日常語法視聽說寫第39課，虛擬語氣，請觀看視頻，以獲得第一語感。
L:We don't have enough time today, so I suggest we just jump into our lesson!
K:Today we'll go over how to use the subjunctive to express urgency or importance.
L:But since we need to hurry, here is one common structure of the subjunctive: Verb + that + object + simple verb.
I advise that you hire a lawyer.
K:The second form of subjunctive uses: It is + adjective + that + object + simple verb.
It is important that she arrive on time.
L:Using the subjunctive is a good way to be polite when telling someone what to do. The subjunctive is formal and diplomatic.
K:So instead of saying:
Stop slurping your soup!
You could say:
I suggest that you wait until the soup has chilled.
L:Kaveh, did we miss anything?
K:Ah, yes! It is essential that you remember this: There is no third person –s in the subjunctive. You can't say:
It is important that she reads the book.
You have to say:
It is important that she read the book.
L:Usually the person using the subjunctive has power over the listener. Like a mother speaking to a child or a boss speaking to an employee. It's a polite way to give a command.
最後就是背誦默寫，沒必要做到一詞不差，但你得積累用英語表達“虛擬語氣”這個話題，也就是這段話的要點，歸納如下：
