误I wish that our teacher will come to our evening party.
正I wish that our teacher would come to our evening party.
正I hope that our teacher will come to our evening party.
析hope和wish都可表示“希望”,但hope表示的“希望”一般可以实现,充当其宾语的从句中的动词用将来时。wish所表示的“希望”实现的可能性不大,充当其宾语的从句中的动词用虚拟式。
“今天晚上你想去看电影吗?”“我希望能去,但我得准备一次考试。”误“Would you like to go to the movies tonight?” “I wish I did, but I have to study for a test.”
正“Would you like to go to the movies tonight?” “I wish I could, but I have to study for a test.”
析wish后接的宾语从句常用虚拟语气。指将来的情况多用would, could或might加动词原形构成谓语。如果谓语动词用了过去式形式,则是对现在情况的假设。
我现在就要见他。误I wish seeing him at once.
正I wish to see him at once.
析wish后接动词不定式表示“希望”,强调主语的主观愿望,该愿望大都可以实现。这时, wish后不能接动名词。
祝你成功!误I hope you success.
正I wish you success.
析wish后可以跟双宾语,但hope后不可以。
他不希望得到任何回报。误He does not wish any reward.
正He does not wish for any reward.
析表示“希望得到某物”时要用wish for。
祝你生日快乐!误I hope you a happy birthday.
正I wish you a happy birthday.
析表示“祝愿”时,一般用wish而不用hope。
圣诞节前夕,我们拜访我们的美国老师,祝愿他圣诞节快乐。误On Christmas Eve we visited our American teacher, congratulating him on a merry Christmas.
正On Christmas Eve we visited our American teacher, wishing him a merry Christmas.
析congratulate是因某人有喜事或成功地完成某项工作时对他表示“祝贺”,至于圣诞节或新年,对别人的“祝愿、祝福”通常用wish。
误She married a young worker in her own wish ten years ago.
正She married a young worker at her own wish ten years ago.
正She married a young worker by her own wish ten years ago.
析表示“自愿”, wish前面用at或by,而不可用in。
他表达了对我们大家的美好祝愿。误He expressed his best wish to us all.
正He expressed his best wishes to us all.
析wish作“祝愿”解时,通常用其复数形式。
