I couldn't have got to the meeting on time - _______ an earlier train .
A.if I had not caughtB.unless I had caught C.if I did not catchD.unless I caught
B
if…not和unless有時(shí)可以互相替換,但也有不能互相替換的時(shí)候。unless用于這樣的句子,即"如果A不受阻于B,A將發(fā)生",例如:He will accept the job if the salary is not too low / unless the salary is too low . (如果薪水不太低,他就會(huì)接受這一工作/除非薪水太低,否則他會(huì)接受這一項(xiàng)工作的。)但是unless不能用于"由于未發(fā)生B而發(fā)生A"的句子里,如:I will be quite glad if she does not come this evening (她今天晚上要是不來(lái),我才高興呢。)又如:I will be surprised if he does not win the game next week . (如果他贏不了下星期那場(chǎng)比賽,我倒會(huì)感到驚奇的。)在以上的兩個(gè)句子中不能使用unless,但是unless常用來(lái)引導(dǎo)一個(gè)談及過(guò)去的事后的想法,unless從句跟著主句,通常用破折號(hào)而不是逗號(hào)將它與主句分開(kāi)。第7題的句意是:我不可能準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì)了-除非我當(dāng)時(shí)趕上更早一列火車(chē)。這個(gè)句子的實(shí)際是說(shuō):我沒(méi)有準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì)。我只有趕上更早的一趟火車(chē),才能準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì)。如果用if … not代替上面句中的unless,那么這個(gè)句子就變成:I couldn't have got to the meeting on time if I hadn't caught an earlier train . (要不是我趕上了更早的一班火車(chē),我就不可能準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì)。)這句話(huà)表達(dá)的意思與上句完全相反:我確實(shí)準(zhǔn)時(shí)到會(huì)了,因?yàn)槲亿s上了更早的一趟火車(chē)。
