這題的重點 – 在假設語氣中，與過去事實相反的倒裝句。

1.   這個與過去事實相反的假設語氣，其原來的句子是：

      If it had not been for my parents’ support and encouragement, I couldn’t have been able to go to my ideal high school.

      = Had it not been for my parents’ support and encouragement, I couldn’t have been able to go to my ideal high school. (倒裝)

      = Without my parents’ support and encouragement, I couldn’t have been able to go to my ideal high school.

      其他例句：

      1)   If I hadn’t gone shopping last night, I wouldn’t have lost my wallet.

            = Hadn’t I gone shopping last night, I wouldn’t have lost my wallet.

            = Had I not gone shopping last night, I wouldn’t have lost my wallet.

            = I wouldn’t have lost my wallet had I not gone shopping last night,

      2)   If it had not been for your financial support, we couldn’t have completed this project.

            = Had it not been for your financial support, we couldn’t have completed this project.

            = With your financial support, we couldn’t have completed this project.
