wish是重要的高考考点,既可以用作动词,也可以用作名词,用作动词时宾语从句中需要用虚拟语气。
1.wish vi/vt希望,想要
①wish to do sth希望做某事
Anyone who wishes to take part in the race should sign up in my office. 任何想参加比赛的人都应该到我的办公室报名。
②wish sb to do sth希望某人做某事
He wished his son to be a teacher in the future. 他希望他的儿子将来成为一名教师。
③wish sth done希望某事被做
I wish the letter posted at once. 我希望这封信马上寄出。
2.wish vt盼望,希望,要是…就好了
wish用作这种含义,表达难以实现的愿望,其后的宾语从句通常用虚拟语气。
表示现在难以实现的愿望:
谓语动词用 did/were
表示过去难以实现的愿望:
谓语动词用had done或would/could/might have done
表示将来难以实现的愿望:
谓语动词用would/should/could/might do
I wish I were 10years younger. 我希望我能年轻10岁。
I wish I had attended the meeting yesterday. 我要是昨天参加了会议就好了。
I wish he could be on my side. 我希望他能站在我这边。
3.wish vi 盼望,想要 wish for想要/希望得到
Most of all, I never wish for too much. 最重要的是,我从不奢求太多。
4.wish vt 祝愿 wish sb sth
I wish you a happy new year. 祝你新年快乐。
I wish you good luck. 祝你好运。
注意:may表祝愿与wish的不同。
may sb do sth
May you have a good journey! 祝你旅途愉快!
May you succeed! 祝你成功
5.wish n希望,愿望(可数名词)复数加es,复数可表示祝愿
Jason was determined not to go against his father’s wishes. 杰森决心不违背他父亲的意愿。(2012江西卷)
Best wishes to you! 向你致以美好的祝愿。
6.wish与hope的区别
①hope接宾语从句时表示有可能实现的愿望,而wish表示难以实现的愿望,而且宾语从句要有虚拟语气,hope不用虚拟语气。
比较:
He hoped that he could make progress in the final exam. 他希望他能在期末考试中取得进步。(有可能实现的)
I wish I were younger than you. 我要是比你年轻就好了。(难以实现的)
②hope后跟不定式,只有hope to do;而wish后跟不定式,可以有wish to do sth;wish sb to do sth。
I hope to visit my friend at weekend. 我希望周末去拜访我的朋友。
I wish my friend to visit me at weekend. 我希望我的朋友周末来看我。
③wish表祝愿,wish sb sth,hope没有这种用法。
I wish you every success. 祝你成功。
