—If so, let’s go to the classroom to see him. 如果她在教室里,我们就去那儿看他吧。

3. 当从句为否定,而整个从句被省略时,可写为don’t…so, 也可只保留从句中的not。这样的主句动词有:think, believe, suppose等。如:(www.hxen.net)

(1) —Do you think he will change his idea? 你认为他会改变主意吗?

—No. I don’t think so. 不,我认为他不会。

(2) —Do you think English is difficult? 你认为英语难学吗?

—No. I don’t think so. 不,我认为不难学。

四、从句中的引导词省略后,主谓倒装

在虚拟条件句中含有were, should, had 时,可将 if 省略,同时将 were, should, had 提到句首。如:

(1) Were I there, I would stop him doing that. 要是我在那儿,我就会阻止他那样做。

(2) Had he learnt English, he would be studying abroad. 要是他以前学过英语,他会正在国外学习

(3) Should he like swimming, I couldn’t stop him. 要是他喜欢游泳,我可阻止他不了。
