TOEIC Part5「仮定法」の解き方と頻出パターン|練習10問つき

仮定法の問題は、if 節と主節の時制の組み合わせを覚えていれば機械的に解けます。TOEICでは if の省略による倒置(Should you have ~ / Had we known ~)もよく出ます。

解き方のポイント

  1. 現在の事実に反する仮定:If + 過去形, 主語 + would + 原形
  2. 過去の事実に反する仮定:If + had + 過去分詞, 主語 + would have + 過去分詞
  3. 未来の可能性:If + 現在形, 主語 + will + 原形(ふつうの条件文)
  4. 倒置:Should you have any questions, ...(If you should have ~)
  5. 倒置:Had we known earlier, ...(If we had known ~)

Q1. If the budget ___ approved, the project will begin in April.

答えと解説を見る

正解: A) is

The 'if' clause is a conditional adverbial clause, and even when it refers to a future event, it uses the present tense. So 'is' is correct. 'Were' is the subjunctive past, used for something contrary to fact, and clashes with the realistic context of 'starting in April'. 'Being' and 'to be' can't serve as a finite main verb.

Q2. It is essential that every employee ___ the safety guidelines.

答えと解説を見る

正解: B) follow

'It is essential that...' expresses necessity or a demand, and the that-clause following such expressions uses the base form of the verb regardless of the subject's person (the subjunctive mood). So 'follow' is correct. Essential, necessary, important, and verbs like suggest, recommend, and request all trigger the same pattern. 'Follows' (third person) and 'followed' (past) look correct in an ordinary sentence, but this construction calls for the base form.

Q3. The auditor requested that all financial records ___ available for review.

答えと解説を見る

正解: B) be

Verbs expressing demand or suggestion — request, suggest, recommend, insist, and others — are followed by a that-clause whose verb takes the base form (the subjunctive mood). So 'be' is correct. 'Are' and 'were' carry ordinary tense and don't fit this construction. 'Being' is a participle and can't serve as the main verb. This follows the same pattern as 'It is essential that...'.
