should MIGHTFJdvaux [+ infinitive without to; not be shoulding] he/she/it should used after 'that' and after some adjectives and nouns which show an opinion or reaction, and after 'that' and some verbs showing agreement, instruction, intention, decision, etc., to suggest that a situation possibly exists or might come into existence竟会It's odd that she should think I would want to see her again.很奇怪，她竟会认为我还想再次见到她。It's strange that he shouldn't have contacted us by now.很奇怪，他到现在竟还没同我们联系。It's so unfair that she should have died so young.她如此年轻就去世了，这太不应该。That he should be so generous came as a great surprise.他竟如此慷慨，这真令人十分惊奇。(esp. Br) It worries me that he should drive all that way on his own.一路上他都将独自驾驶，这使我十分担心。(esp. Br fml) I suggest that you should leave.我建议你离开。(esp. Br fml) I prefer that Jane should do it.我建议由简来做这件事。Should is used after 'so that' and 'in order that' to show purpose.(表示目的)会He took his umbrella so that he shouldn't get wet.他带了伞，那样他就不会被淋湿了。(fml) Should is also used after 'for fear that', 'in case' and 'lest'.以免He took his umbrella in case it should rain.他拿了伞以防下雨。You use 'should' in sentences like this when you are imagining a situation that might exist, but allowing for the possibility that it does not exist. Compare 'It's strange that she thinks that' (= She does think that, which is strange) and 'It's strange that she should think that' (= If she thinks that, and it seems that she does, it is strange). When it is used in connection with events that have happened already, as in 'It's so unfair that she should have died so young', 'should' suggests the idea that they might not have happened, although in fact they did. After a verb and 'that', it is usual to use the SUBJUNCTIVE (I suggest that you leave), but in formal British English, you use 'should' (I suggest that you should leave).
