An article of newspaper ????

I don't understand below sentance from an article of newspaper. What is the meaning of "should " in the sentance? What is the grammatical structure of the sentence? Thank you very much.

Lew said that at the end of June last year, just before he took office, he advised Leung to identify the three professionals should the pan-democrats keep harping on the issue.

Lew said that at the end of June last year,
just before he took office,
he advised Leung to identify the three professionals
should the pan-democrats keep harping on the issue.

這是寫法上的拆解

你問的should 意思 「假如」pan-democtate(泛民派人) keep (持續) harping (重提)...意思如同if,但用should是指不確定的假設和用預計的角度來講。在所有危機處理或考慮可能發生事故的對應方案寫法都會用should(if) X happens, take action A;should(if) action A fails, take action B...

由於要把多個層次的情況寫入同一句,這是報紙常用的不按太傳統文法組句。

因為..

...he advised Leung that should pan-democrats keep harping on the issue, he should (ought to) identify (give out the identity of ) the three professionals.

才算較會詳細的句子。

這只不過是假設法的特殊用法罷了!只是將假設法的if省略了,但這種省略得注意,必須將動詞放在主詞前面。

如:

Should it rain tomorrow, I should stay at home. = If it should rain tomorrow...
(萬一明天下雨,我將留在家裏)

Were I a king, I should not be able to do it.= If I were a king,.....
(即使我是國王,我也不能做它。)

Had I known your address, I should have written to you.
= If I had known your address......
(要是我知道你的地址,我就已寫信給你了。)

所以,你所引的句子,其意思是:......he advised Leung to identify the three professionals if the pan-democrats should keep harping on the issue.

他建議梁去確認那三位專業人仕,萬一汎民在這議題上死纏不放。


希望幫到你!
