1. B 虚拟语气中wish的用法：如果表达的是现在或将来的愿望，动词用一般过去时；如果表达的是过去的没有实现的愿望，动词用过去完成时。这句话是说：我希望今天晚上能和你一起去看电影，但是我不得不把家庭作业做完。显然句子所表达的愿望是将来的，故用一般过去式。
2. A desire（要求）后面that 从句中谓语动词要用should＋动词原形，should 可以省略。the tour leader（导游）；schedule（日程表）；inform（通知）
3. B I’d rather == I would rather；would rather后面 that从句表达的是一种意愿，动作尚未发生，虚拟语气，从句谓语动词用过去式。
4. C 我们这个月底一定能找到个解决此问题的方案。表示对将来要发生动作的一种肯定性语气，非虚拟语气。 a solution to this problem：解决此问题的方案。
5. B 我要知道你在等着，我很快就来了。你在等着——这个动作发生在过去，即与过去事实相反，故虚拟条件中的从句谓语用过去完成时态。 6. B neither??nor?? ( 既不??也不??) 连接的两个动词是并列结构，时态保持一致。
7. C not……until…… (直到……才……) 这句话意思为：这个街区上的酒馆直到早上一点才关门。表达的是一般现在时的情况，用实义动词close 的否定式。Pub：酒馆
8. D 他们已经很少享用这样丰盛的晚宴了。rarely :（ 稀有地，很少）含有否定意义。从句义理解应选D
9. A in advance 提前； at the airport 在机场； If 引导的虚拟条件句，从句用的是过去完成时态，主句用would have + 过去分词。 10. A 这是虚拟语气在主语从句中的一种应用， 从句谓语动词要用原形。in time 及时。 11. D at once 立刻，马上；情态动词must 表达一种坚定的建议，表明Hurstwood 情况很严峻，必须马上送医院；又Hurstwood是被送往医院，所以用被动语态。 12. D smiled, got up, received 是连贯动作，并列结构，时态要保持一致。 13. C 小偷带走的比他想的要多。burglar小偷； more than 多于；take away 带走；more than前后的比较为并列结构，动词时态保持一致。C 更符合句义。 14. B scarcely 几乎不，否定含义,不能再与not 连用来表达否定意味了；climbing the mountain 爬山； 这句话直译为：他在爬山之后几乎没有多余的力气了，也就是说，爬完山他一点劲儿也没有了。没有力气在爬山动作之后，故用have（拥有）的过去式（had）。 15. B it was(is) essential（必要的） that?? 主语从句中用虚拟语气should + 动词原形. 再看：all the necessary data（所有需要的数据）是被送到办公室的，故要用被动语态，到此显然答案为B.
16. C the right to vote 选举权；adult 成年的；demand （要求）后面的从句用虚拟语气should + 动词原形，should 可以省略不写。另外，这里选举权是被赋予的，故用过去时态，C为被动，正确。 17. B 省略if的虚拟条件句，句首倒装，相当于：If I had known her name, I would invite her to lunch. 从句为过去完成时，答案应为would + 现在完成时
18. C it is about(high) time that?? 虚拟语气的固定用法之一，从句中谓语动词要用一般过去式。
19. D look over 检查； engine发动机； lest 以防，万一；lest 引导的目的状语从句中用虚拟语气：should + 动词原形。其他还有for fear that, in case引导词。
20. B apologize 道歉； be able to 能够； 介词for后面跟动名词时，其动名词的形式主语her 应该放在动名词的前面。再看：动名词的否定形式为：not + 动名词，故
