LISTENING AND GRAMMAR: THE SUBJUNCTIVE

Listen and fill in the gaps:

Hi guys. Dan from BBC Learning English here. Deep in the darkest heart of
the BBC.
We’re on a quest for the very rare subjunctive verb form.
They used to be everywhere in (1)_______ (2)_______ but in modern English
they are much (3)_______ to find. It is vital that we (4)_______ here for no
longer than 90 seconds. Are you ready? Go!
So, the subjunctive is a verb form which expresses possible, (5) _______,
imaginary or (6) _______ situations. We see it most often in conditionals and
wishes. But it can still be found in a few other very useful places.
"I've found some! Finally!"
One place subjunctives can be found is in sentences that start: It + be + an
adjective:
It is important that you (7) _______ as soon as possible
It’s essential that he see a doctor
It’s crucial that they (8) _______ the building
It’s best that you not be at the meeting
These verb forms here are subjunctives. Notice that with a (9) _______
person subjunctive – he, she and it – we don’t add an s and to make a
negative subjunctive we use (10) _______.
These sentences are very (11) _______.
The other place we can find a subjunctive is with verbs like (12) _______ and
suggest. Again the same rules apply:
I suggest that you be there on time
I recommend that he not (13) _______ so much again
And that’s it! Maybe they aren’t so (14) _______ after all.
