新概念英语3 17课。里面有句话。是这样的 it has been estimate that the bridge were packed with cars.

Question

为什么句子中的the bridge要使用were呢？不是使用was？。在这句话前面是有句是they support the cables from which the bridge has been suspended.在这里确实使用了has。。~

Answer 1

应该是虚拟语气，虚拟语气中没有was,只有were

Answer 2

虚拟语气用法，因为estimated有 “估计判断”的意思，表示推断（假设）

Answer 3

是因为用了猜测（假设）语气吧。例如 I could do better if I were you. (如果我是你我会做得更好。)本回答被提问者采纳

Answer 4

虚拟语气……
