问题: 虚拟语气问题: I had hoped that I ______ you by talking about my children.

I had hoped that I ______ you by talking about my children.
A wouldn’t bore
B hadn’t bored 答案a
主句时态是had hoped,为什么从句用wouldn’t bore ,不用完成时态hadn’t bored.

解答:

had hoped/expected/thought...这是用在宾语从句中的虚拟语气,和用在if条件句中的不同;
would/could +动词原形...表与将来事实相反.如果用had+ v+ed表示与过去事实相反.
主句中表式"本来打算/希望/以为",而实际/事实不如此.:此句意义:"我本来打算不用谈论孩子的事来打扰你".事实上事实是"我却谈论了孩的事",从当时的角度看使过去将来.所以用wouldn't bore.
