虚拟语气表示 非事实性、抽象愿望或与现实相反的条件（即“平行世界”的隐喻）。它表达的是 概念距离，而非时间上的距离。
The Subjunctive Mood signals non-factuality, abstract desire, or conditions contrary to reality (The Parallel World metaphor). It expresses conceptual distance, not chronological time.

If the weather?better today, we would have gone hiking.
反馈: 该句描述了过去假设的条件（由 "would have gone" 暗示）。要表达与过去事实相反的愿望或条件，需要使用过去完成时虚拟语气 ('had been')。Feedback: The sentence describes a hypothetical condition in the past (implied by "would have gone"). To express a wish or condition contrary to past fact, the Past Perfect Subjunctive ('had been') is required.
The company requires that every employee?the new security protocol immediately.
反馈: 动词 'requires' 是一个触发动词，它要求从句中使用虚拟语气的动词原形。因此，尽管主语 'employee' 是单数，动词也必须使用原形 'follow'，而不是标准的变位形式 'follows'。Feedback: The verb 'requires' is a trigger verb that necessitates the use of the subjunctive base form in the subordinate clause. Therefore, the singular subject 'employee' takes the base form 'follow' instead of the standard conjugated form 'follows'.
I wish I?able to assist you with the project, but I am too busy now.
反馈: “I wish I...”从句后跟一个与当前事实相反的愿望，需要使用过去虚拟语气形式。在这种情况下，动词 'to be' 必须使用 'were'，表示与当前现实（“我现在太忙了”）的概念距离。Feedback: The clause "I wish I..." followed by a desire contrary to the present fact requires the Past Subjunctive form. For the verb 'to be' in this context, 'were' is the mandated form, signaling the conceptual distance from the current reality ("I am too busy now").
