[文法] be to V

[tracasserie (tracasserie)]

If China were to contemplate a revaluation,
it should consider as an alternative the imposition of a tax on its exports.
想請問這were to contemplate的用法
跟直接用contemplated有什麼不一樣呢
謝謝

推 coolon:were to 是指絕不會去做
推 Adlay:be to V指表未來的安排、計畫
→ Adlay:一定會做的事....
→ Adlay:只是在假設語氣中就正好給他反過來...一定不會發生
推 Adlay:也就是與未來相反的假設.....
推 tracasserie:非常感謝^^
