— Nowadays people seem to be becoming more and more selfish.
— How much better life would be if we ______ to the values of the past!
A.would return B.had returnedC.return D.were to return
D

试题分析:考查虚拟语气。本句是条件句中的虚拟语气。根据句意可知是对将来发生的事情的虚拟,条件句中使用“were to do sth””should+动词原形”或者过去时;主句使用“情态动词+动词原形”;句意:—现在的人们似乎越来越自私了.—要是我们回到以前的世界观,生活可能就会好多了!故D正确。
点评:条件句的虚拟语气是考查的重点。如果过去事实相反,条件句中使用过去完成时,主句使用“情态动词+have done”;如果主句与现在事实相反,条件句中使用过去时,be动词使用were,主句中使用“情态动词+动词原形”;如果与将来事实相反,条件句中有三种:过去时;were to do ;should+动词原形,主句使用“情态动词+动词原形”;要特别注意如果省略了if,句子要使用部分倒装的形式,把助动词,be动词,情态动词提之主语前。
