（一）由助動(dòng)詞“would/should+動(dòng)詞原形”構(gòu)成,should主要用于主語是第一人稱時(shí);would可用于各種人稱。 

 He said he would come to see me.

此結(jié)構(gòu)還可表示根據(jù)當(dāng)時(shí)情況判斷有可能但不一定會發(fā)生某事。例如：

She told me she was coming to see me.

【典型例題】

1.Li Ming said he _____happy if Brian_____to China next month.
A. was; come B. was; would come
C. would be; came D. will be; come

解析：答案C。主將從現(xiàn)的情況放在主句是一般過去的句子中，時(shí)態(tài)前推即可。第一空為過去將來時(shí)，第二空為一般過去時(shí)。
2. Jenny said she _____her holiday in China.
A. spent B. would spent
C. was going to spent D. would spend

解析：答案D。此題難點(diǎn)在于無時(shí)間狀語，B和C中spent形式錯(cuò)誤；比較A和D選項(xiàng)，D項(xiàng)最佳。 “詹尼說她即將在中國度假?！?/span>
3. I hoped Tina ______ to my birthday party on time the next Wednesday. 
A. to come  B. is coming C. will come  D. was coming

解析：答案為D。本題主句是一般過去時(shí)，并且根據(jù)時(shí)間狀語the next Wednesday, 應(yīng)用過去將來時(shí)；D項(xiàng)為過去進(jìn)行，可表過去將來，故選之，
4. She ______ to work when the telephone rang.
A. is going     B. will go     
C. was about to go  D.  is to go

解析：be about to do … when…,為固定搭配，表示“當(dāng)某人即將做某事時(shí)某事發(fā)生了”。此題中表示“她正要去上班時(shí)電話鈴響了”。正確答案為C。
