CHUYÊN ĐỀ CÂU ĐIỀU KIỆN NÂNG CAO

Cấu trúc câu điều kiện cấp độ nâng cao

Chào các em, sau khi đã nắm vững các công thức cơ bản rồi, sau đây các em sẽ tiếp tục xem phần nâng cao của câu điệu kiện nhé.

Dùng were to bên mệnh đề có if: Để diễn tả một hoàn cảnh tưởng tượng ở tương lai:

Ví dụ:

If the government were to cut V.A.T, prices would fall. ( Tưởng tưởng vậy đi cho nó thư giãn ha, thời buổi “gạo châu củi quế” này J )

If he were to win the game, he would be rich. (Tưởng tượng thôi chứ không dễ gì anh ta thắng đâu).

Để đề nghị một cách lịch sự:

Ví dụ:

If you were to ask him, he might help you. (Nếu bạn mà nhờ đến thì anh ta sẽ giúp bạn)

If you were to move over, we could all sit on the sofa.

Lưu ý:

Công thức này không áp dụng cho các động từ chỉ tình trạng như: know, like, remember, understand…

Ví dụ:

If I were to remember… ( sai)

If I remembered… ( đúng)

Trong công thức này were có thể đem ra ngoài thế if, nhưng nếu có not thì không được đem not theo mà phải để lại sau chủ từ nhé.

Ví dụ:

Weren’t the government to cut… (sai)

Were the government not to cut… (đúng)

Dùng it was/were not for + noun bên mệnh đề if

Người ta dùng cấu trúc này để diễn tả một hoàn cảnh này lệ thuộc vào một hoàn cảnh hay một người nào khác.

Ví dụ:

If it were not for you, I would die. (Nếu không có bạn là tôi “tiêu” rồi)

Đối với chuyện trong quá khứ ta dùng: if it hadn’t been for…

Các em cũng có thể dùng but for để thay thế công thức này mà không thay đổi nghĩa:

Ví dụ:

If it were not for you,… = but for you,…

Phân biệt if not và unless:

Thông thường, ở cấp độ cơ bản các em có thể thay thế if not bằng unless. Tuy nhiên, ở cấp độ nâng cao các em sẽ gặp những trường hợp chúng không thể thay thế nhau.

Không thể dùng unless thay cho if not trong những trường hợp sau:

Trong những tình huống không thật. (thường là câu loại 2 và 3)

Ví dụ:

She would be a good friend if she were not selfish.

She would be a good friend unless she were selfish. (sai)

If he had not been absent, he would have known that.

Unless he had been absent, he would have known that. (sai)

Khi nói về cảm xúc:

I will be disappointed, if you don’t pass the exam.

I will be disappointed, unless you pass the exam. (sai)

Trong hầu hết các câu hỏi:

Ví dụ:

What do you think if I don’t come?

What do you think unless I come? (sai)

Không thể dùng if not thay cho unless trong những trường hợp sau:

Khi ta nhắc đến việc đã qua với nhận xét về nó. Cách nhận ra tình huống này là có dấu gạch nối trước unless.

Ví dụ:

I couldn’t have gone to school on time – unless I had got up earlier. (Tôi đã không thể đi học đúng giờ- Trừ khi tôi dậy sớm hơn.)

Trong tính huống này, thực tế tôi đã không đi học đúng giờ và tôi đã không dậy sớm.

So sánh với câu này khi dùng if not.

I couldn’t have gone to school on time, if I had not got up earlier. (Tôi đã không thể đi học đúng giờ nếu tôi không thức dậy sớm hơn)

Trong trường hợp này thực tế tôi đã dậy sớm và đi học đúng giờ. Nghĩa hoàn toàn ngược với câu trên.

Khi ta nói xong một câu, sau đó thêm vào một ý. Trường hợp này cũng phải có dấu gạch nối.

Ví dụ:

Because my secretaty is in the hospital, the work can’t continue – Unless you take up her position, of course. (Vì thư kí tôi nằm viện, công việc không thể tiếp tục – Dĩ nhiên trừ khi cô thay thế vị trí của cô ấy.)

Because my secretaty is in the hospital, the work can’t continue if you don’t take up her position, of course. (sai)

Câu điều kiện loại zero.

Người ta gọi tên nó là “zero” có lẽ vì thấy 2 vế đều chia hiện tại đơn.

Cách dùng:

Diễn tả một chân lí, qui luật:

Ví dụ:

If water is frozen, it expands. Nếu nước bị đông đặc nó nở ra. (Đây là sự thật, chân lí lúc nào cũng vậy nên dùng loại zero)

Phân biệt:

If the water is frozen, it will expand. Nếu nước này bị đông đặc nó sẽ nở ra. (Đây là một hoàn cảnh cụ thể, một khối nước cụ thể nào đó xác định nên không dùng loại zero)

Diễn tả một thói quen:

Ví dụ:

If it rains, I go to school by taxi. (Đây là thói quen chứ không phải một hoàn cảnh cụ thể nào nên dùng loại zero)

Phân biệt:

If it rains this evening, I will go to school by taxi. (Đây là hoàn cảnh cụ thể chứ không phải thói quen nên không dùng loại zero)

Câu điều kiện loại hỗn hợp.

Loại hỗn hợp là loại câu điều kiện mà 2 vế khác loại nhau.

Ví dụ:

If you had not spent too much yesterday, you would not be broke now. (Nếu hôm qua bạn không xài quá nhiều tiền thì hôm nay đâu có sạch túi như vầy) => Loại 3 + loại 2.

If you liked animals, I would have taken you to the zoo. => Loại 2+ loại 3

If she arrived there yesterday, she can come here tomorrow. => Loại 2 + loại 1

Như vậy các em sẽ thấy loại hổn hợp rất đa dạng. Vấn đề đặt ra là làm sao biết chia vế nào loại nào. Để làm được loại hổn hợp này các em cần nắm vững bí quyết sau:

Trước tiên các em phải hiểu bản chất của câu điều kiện là nếu cái gì đúng sự thật thì chia động từ theo đúng thời gian của nó, còn cái gì không có thật, khó xảy ra hoặc chỉ giả sử thôi thì lùi về một thì.

Khi nắm nguyên tắc này rồi các em cứ lần lượt xem xét từng vế riêng biệt mà chia thì chư không được chia vế này xong thấy loại mấy thì vội vàng chia vế kia như vậy là rất dễ sai.

Thử lấy các ví dụ trên phân tích xem nhé.

If you had not spent too much yesterday, you would not be broke now.

Vế đầu là chuyện xảy ra ở quá khứ không có thật (nếu hôm qua không xài quá nhiều tiền => thực tế đã xài quá nhiều tiền) Bình thường động từ ở quá khứ sẽ chia quá khứ đơn nhưng vì không thật nên ta giảm thì xuống thành QKHT.

Vế sau là chuyện ở hiện tại và cũng không có thật nên từ will giảm thành would ( hiện tại nhưng vẫn dùng will vì đây là công thức của câu điều kiện).

If you liked animals, I would have taken you to the zoo.

Vế đầu là nói về sở thích chung chung nên bình thường là chia hiện tại nhưng vì không thật nên giảm xuống quá khứ. Vế sau là sự việc ở quá khứ nên giảm xuống thành would have p.p

Tóm lại:

Các em không nên học chi tiết từng loại hỗn hợp mà chỉ cần nhớ nguyên tắc trên rồi chiếu theo đó mà xem xét từng vế. Lưu ý là phải đọc kỹ các manh mối cho trong câu đề để quyết định thời gian cũng như biết nó có xảy ra hay không. Thông thường có 3 cơ sở để các em xét:

-Thời gian ở quá khứ.

-Thời gian ở hiện tại/tương lai.

-Thói quen.

Đảo ngữ trong câu điều kiện

Các chữ : HAD trong câu ĐK loại 3, chữ WERE, trong loại 2, chữ SHOULD trong loại 1 có thể đem ra trước chủ từ thế cho IF

Ví dụ:

If I were you, I would ….

= Were I you , I would….

If I had gone to school……

= Had I gone to school…

if I should go….

= Should I go…..

Lưu ý: Nếu có NOT thì vẫn để NOT ở lại chứ không được đem ra đầu.
