问题选择题

____ the aid from the government, the flood-stricken area ____ greater loss.

A．Apart from; should have suffered

B．But for; would have suffered

C．Without; could suffer

D．Except for; would have suffered

答案

答案：B

题目分析：考查虚拟语气：句意：要不是政府的帮助，洪水泛滥地区就会遭受更大的损失。可知政府给与了帮助，洪水泛滥地区也没有遭受更大的损失，这是虚拟语气，but for要不是，would have done本来会…而不会，apart from除了，except for也是除了，should have done是本应该做，而没有，选B。

点评：虚拟语气在非真实条件句中的用法: 1.表示与现在事实相反的情况时, if从句的谓语用动词的过去式，主句的谓语用should / would / could / might +动词原形，2.表示与过去事实相反的情况时, if从句的谓语用had done形式, 主句的谓语用should / would / could / might + have done的形式3，表示与将来事实相反的情况时, if从句的谓语形式是: ①.完全动词过去式 (be的过去式通常用were); ②.should +动词原形; ③.were to do. 其中②, ③种情况都含有“出乎意料之外”之意; 主句的谓语的形式是: should / would / could / might +动词原形。
