Step 4. Learn and master the language points. 1. If only it could be just like last year! 要是能像去年那样就好了！

分析(1）此句用了虚拟语气，表达了与将来事实相反的情况。

(2）“If only＋句子”是固定句型，表示一种愿望，意为

“要是……就好了，但愿…”，此时句中要用虚拟语气。

If only the whole family could be united during the Spring Festival. 春节全家能团圆就好了。

拓展：If only．．．用于虚拟语气时

（1）若表示与将来事实相反的愿望，句中谓语用would/could+do （2）若表示与现在事实相反的愿望，句中谓语则用动词的过去式；

（3）若表示与过去事实相反的愿望，句中谓语则用had done. 完成下列练习：

1. 你工作要是再仔细一些该多好啊！If only you __________(work) with greater care! 2. 我今天要是没生病就好了。

If only I _____(be) not ill today! 3. 但愿她考试能及格！

分析Having heard wolves howling in the forest是分词短语做状语，

Lala是分词短语的逻辑主语，

accelerate是主句的谓语，

her walk是宾语，fearing是现在分词做状语表示伴随

。that there might be wild beasts lying in wait for her是一个宾语从句，其中

lying in wait for her是现在分词短语作定语修饰

beasts.
