👥 對話
Manager: How’s the project coming along?
Employee: We’re making steady progress. We should be able to complete the first phase by Friday.
Manager: That’s great. But if there were any delays, what would the impact be?
Employee: If there was a delay, we would need to reschedule the next phase.
Manager: Let’s ensure everything stays on track.
📌 文法解析
- 「should be able to」表達可能性與能力
- 例：We should be able to finish on time.（我們應該能準時完成。）「should」+「be able to」= 一種可能性，表示有能力做到但不是 100% 確定。
- 假設語氣（If there were / was, would...）
- 這裡用的是第二類條件句（與現在相反的假設）例：If there were a delay, we would need to reschedule.（如果有延遲，我們就需要重新安排時間。）口語中有時會用「was」，但標準寫法應該用「were」。
