#私人學習筆記公開
每天早晨可以做和英語相關的學習很多。為減少頭腦的記憶成本，我喜歡用傳統的書寫方式，將今天要做的事情一項項用英文或中文寫下來，想練口說的人可以嘗試用未來式講出來（晚上睡覺前再做一次，用past tense；沒做的呢？嘗試說 I haven’t pp.....because...)。我也會嘗試看一點英文，幾分鐘都好，但要做學習記錄（如下）。有時也邊刷牙 or 整理頭髮時邊聽 podcast (中英文的都可，聽中文的話可以邊聽邊想裡面講的東西，如何用英文表達 e.g. 關稅、美中貿易大戰)。
學英文的方法真的很多，台灣的學習環境已不算差。第一步驟還是: start doing it，再來就是 make it a habit，最後 stick to it。其實讓英文融入生活，一點也不難。
今日王老師の早晨私人學習 notes (今日自Foreign affairs 雜誌整理，分享私人筆記而非教學用，恕無中譯)：
1. The United States should make the defense of openness the overarching goal of its global strategy. (OS: overarching goal 在 collocation 和學寫課教了好多次，好例句來著)
2. An openness-based strategy would represent a clear departure from the principles of liberal universalism that have guided US strategy since the end of the Cold War. (Os: represent a clear departure...好美的句子，GRE 填空句子常看到的熟字僻義，記下來和學生分享....that have 一定有人寫 that has, 記下來當 agreement 的例子)
3. As new forms of conflict emerge, traditional forms of cooperation are unlikely to keep pace. (背起來吧，emerge 很 keep pace 用得美美的、記下來在文法課解釋 as 和 when 的差異時當例句之一）
4. Thanks to the separation of powers within the US government, no one foreign policy camp could accrue too much influence. (OS: 恩。。這個 camp 用法在學寫課講過、accrue 的用法練習產出）
5. Their recognition need not—and, indeed, must not—entail the acceptance of closed spheres of influence, emerging either by design or by default. (OS: 帶學生模寫、分析這句話的邏輯、層次、結構、need not 用法）
其實就是教學癌爆發啦
have past tense用法 在 Re: [文法] 過去推測- 看板Eng-Class - 批踢踢實業坊 的推薦與評價
※ 引述《harry1234585 (UglyLoser)》之銘言：
: 課本上的句子：
: Many people might have died if there was a disaster.
: 疑問：
: 與過去事實相反的假設,if 子句不是要用過去完成式嗎：Many people might have died
: if there had been a disaster.
: 求教是我理解有問題還是課本有謬誤
這個句型，在板上好像討論蠻多次了。之前經濟學人那篇，也有用過去完成式，假定某件
事成真。
如果要用過去完成式，那時態就要設定在過去式。這可以畫時間軸就知道了，假定A那件事
情發生成真，那B這件事就會怎樣。如果一個用現在完成式(might have)，一個用過去完成
式就說不過去了(had been)。
要改寫成過去完成式的話，就要這樣子寫：
Many people would die if there had been a disaster. （經濟學人那句也是
had .... + would，兩者都是在過去時間軸假設。）
經濟學人原句，提供參考
"After Britain had left the eu early next year, the hard work of negotiating a
trade agreement would begin."
另外我特別查了Oxford Modern English Grammar，相關用法。
但實際上查到資料，發現使用更彈性，並沒有一定要過去完成式這種說法，甚至不想要用
if 都沒關係。
9.2.2.3 The modal past tense. (Page. 250)
The past tense of verbs can be used to talk about modal situations, for example
situations that are hypothetical or non-factual. For this reason we call it the
modal past tense, that is, conditions which are most likely to be fulfilled.
They can be introduced by if(only), imagine if, or suppose/supposing.
例句:
If you turned up for a day's shooting, the pheasants would die laughing.
If I was to go to Dubai, I can get things like electrical goods.
If only he had a darling, cuddly, relaxing dog, perhaps he wouldn't be such a
miserable toad.
不用if
Supposing he had the management team who so intelligently advise Beckham; might
it have made difference ?
也可以用It's time or wish
例句:
It's time people knew how their money was being spent. (事實上人們還不知道)
I wish it was over now. (但與現實相反)
這句也可以寫成
I wish it were over now. 但were表示subjunctive verb form (西班牙文有，但是英文
沒有，不過Be動詞是例外)，用來表示a particular type of modal situation，來表示強
烈希望這件事情發生。
P.278
例如:
If I were you, I'd happy for the York position just for the experience.
你甚至可以用現在式，表示真的有可能完成
We can turn the if-clause in an example like into a clause expressing an open
condition, that is, a condition that can realistically be fulfilled, by
changing the past tense forms to present tense forms in both clauses.
例句:
If you turn up for a day's shooting, the pheasants will die laughing.
如果你學的只有過去完成式的用法，我建議可以換一本了。
不妨參考一下這本

今天還特別去找其他市面上的資料，的確我有看到
過去完成式 + might have 的用法 (Live ABC)
可是它這邊might解做 may 的過去式，把未發生的事情用過去完成式往時間軸後延。
但是這種說法又與Merriam-Webster's 相異
https://www.learnersdictionary.com/qa/comparing-may-and-might
may have 和 might have 事實上在美式英文是混用的
I may have been taking a shower when you called.
等於
I might have been taking a shower when you called.
只有在假設語氣下，必須使用might
Only might is used to talk about an unreal condition or situation, as in
this example:
If you were more experienced, you might have an easier time finding a job.
(=If you had more experience than you actually have, it is possible that it
would be easier for you to find a job.)
但這裡的例句還是沒有強制要求使用過去完成式。
結論就是用法上蠻彈性的，但如果在寫作應用上，我會看整篇的時間軸判斷時態是否正確
。如果整件事情討論都在過去情況下，使用過去完成式我覺得可以理解。可是如果整篇都
是現在式的狀況下，冒然使用過去完成式表示假設的事情，我會圈出來點出inconsistent
tense，表示作者並沒有理解時態的正確用法。
