7. ⑴wished they hadstayed there longer
①语气：陈述语气
祈使语气
虚拟语气
②语气：虚拟语气
语法结构和借助词汇变化实现的。但目的却是表示说话人主观的一种祝愿，命令，建议，要求，或是用语法的结构变化来明确提醒对方，说话人所表达的是不可能或难以实现的愿望。
英语的subjunctive mood / thought mood 要比汉语容易得多，中国人喜欢通过对方的口吻来忖度对方的态度。
⑵wish+宾语从句 （subjunctive mood）
Hope ×不可以携带宾语从句，因为其表示说话人的愿望，其愿望快要实现或已经实现。
⑶虚拟语气的形式分为：
主+wish+(that)+主+did/were(现在)
Had done(过去)
Would do(将来)
总结：
⑴ 虚拟语气是靠谓语的特殊变化来实现的。 简单记忆：虚拟语气的时态需在正常表达的基础上向前推一个时态。
一般现在 一般过去do/does did
一般过去 过去完成did had done
一般将来 过去将来will would do
⑵ 虚拟语气的使用可以不受主句谓语时态的变化的影响。
