有时可将条件从句的连词if省略,但此时应用倒装句型,即将从句中的were,should,had 等提到句首：Were I Tom,I would refuse.如果我是汤姆,我会拒绝.Had it not been for the bad weather we would have arrived in time.若不是天气坏,我们就准时到达了.【注】① 若条件从句为否定句,否定词not应置于主语之后,而不能与were,should,had 等缩略成Weren’t,Shouldn’t,Hadn’t而置于句首.② 有时省略if后提前的had不是助动词：Had I time,I would come.假若我有时间,我会来的.(=If I had time…)
二、省略条件句的主语和其后的动词be
