10、高考中更是屡见不鲜。现结合近几年的高考题目,对表估计的情态动词的用法作一归纳,期望对各位考生会有所帮忙：【考例】 1. Naturally,afterI toldher what to do, my daughter go and do the opposite.A. may B. can C. must D. should2003 年一般高等学校春季招生统一招生考试英语试题（安徽卷）【分析】 Can,may,must 都可用来表示 ”估计 ”,但侧重点各有不同：可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结May 常用来指 ”事实上的可能性 ”,而 can 就表示一种 ”理论上的可能性”例

11、如：The railways may be improved.=It is possible that the railways will be improved.=Perhaps/Maybe/Possibly the railways will be improved.铁路可能会得到改进。（意味着已有详细的改进方案或方案。） The railways can be improved.=It ispossible for the railways to be improved.铁路可以得到改进。（意思是铁路仍不完善,尚有问题存在。） 理论上的可能性 can 比事实上的可能性 may 更弱。在一

12、般的陈述句, can 与 sometimes 几乎相同,表示一种偶然的可能性。比如：Even expert drivers can make mistakes.甚至是很娴熟的驾驶员也可能会犯错。=Even expert drivers sometimes make mistakes.=It is possible for the expert drivers to make mistakes.因此,假如讲的是一种特别情形,不是一般情形,就用may,试比较： Mr Reed looks pale.He may be ill.Mr Reed is in poor health.He can be

13、ill at any time.Must 指规律必定 , 作“想必”、“准是”、“肯定”解,用来表示我们对某事有把握的推论或揣测。 （考虑到迹象如此,再无别的结论 =Itseems certain that. ）:可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结They must be very tired now, for they have been working the whole morning.他们现在肯定是特别累了,由于他们整个上午都在工作。析：填 C.must。意思是 ”不出所料,当我告知女儿要做的事时,她准会去做相反的事。 ”【考例】 1、Marybe in Paris.I

NMET 2002 Tianjing -He should,but henot.He likes driving hiscar.A must B.can C.need D.may【分析】May用于否定时, not 不是否定 may,而是否定句中的动词, 这一点与 can 不同,试比较：He may not know the truth.他可能不知道事情的真相。（=It

15、ispossible that he didnt know the truth.）He cannot know the truth.他不行能知道事情的真相。must 表示估计的这种用法通常用在确定句中,在疑问句中常用can 可能 ,在否定句中常用cant 不行能,不会是 ,而不用mustnt 。例如：- Somebody is knocking at the door. Who can it be . It must be Wang Hong.可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结- No, It cant be Wang Hong, because she left for Sha

16、nghai this morning.- 有人在敲门。会是谁了？肯定是王红。- 不,不会是王红,由于她今日早晨就动身去上海了。因而 You must be joking.在意义上相当于 You can t be serious. 析： 1、填 C。意思是 ”玛丽不行能在巴黎。几分钟前我仍观察她在镇上。2、填 D。意思是 ”- 约翰会坐火车来吗？ - 应当会,但他可能不会。他喜爱开车。 ”【考例】 1.-I heard they went skiing in the mountains last winter.

18、D.might2.-Look.The clouds are gathering.-Yes.Im afraid itbe pouring down soon.A,can B,must C,should D,might可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结【分析】 could 和 might 表示现在的情形时,更带有不愿定性和谨慎味道,构成礼貌或动听说法,包含或许的意思：A:IwonderwhereTom is.B:Hemay/might/couldbeinthe library.Perhaps he is in the library.因 此 在 wonder,fear,beafrai

19、d等 后 接 的 从 句 中 , 通 常 用may/might/could,表达一种探询的观点：I was afraid you might be out of sorts.我怕你可能心情不爽快。假设性的可能和摸索性的可能,也用could 和 might ：Ourteammightstillwintherace.可 以 意 译 为 ： Itis possible,though unlikely,that 析： 1、2 均填 D.might【考例】 Mr. Bush is on time for everything. Howitbe thathe was lateforthe opening

20、ceremony.A canB shouldCmayD must2001 年上海一般高校春季招生考试试卷 【分析】表示估计的 may通常不用于一般疑问句,而要用can 代替。Can 用于一般疑问句时,仍可表示惊奇或怀疑,意思是”（到底）可能有这样的事吗？ ”,比如：“There is the doorbell.”Who can it be at this time of day.”有人按门铃。 ”这个时候到底会是谁了？ ”Must 也有时用于疑问句： Must there be some good reason for the delay. 这个问句设想的是一个确定的回答,可以说明为”Does

22、k and gone back to sleep again. 2000年一般高等学校春季招生考试 北京、安徽卷 A.mightB.shouldC.canD. will2. There were already five people in the car but they managed to take me as well.It a comfortable journey. NMET95A.cant beB.shouldnt beC.mustnt have been D.couldnt have been【分析】 “情态动词 have + -ed分词”结构可以表示对已发生的事情 进行估计

23、,就表示的可能性程度而言, must 最大, could 其次, may 更次之, might 最小。must + have + -ed分词:用于确定句 ,表示估计过去某事 “确定, 一可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结定,准是 ”发生了。 其否定形式为： cant / couldn t have v-ed, 表示过去不行能发生某事。 maymight + have + -ed分词:用于确定句和其他否定句 ,表示对已发生事情的不愿定的估计 ,意为“可能 , 大致”,其中 might 较 may语气更弱 ,把握更小。 Can/could 用于否定或疑问句中 , 表示对过去发生的大事

24、的 “怀疑或不愿定 ”。could比can 更表示说话人语气的不愿定。例如：I mailed that letter a week ago. He must have received it.我一周前就发出了那封信 ,想必他肯定收到了。I cant findmy keys.I may / might have leftthem at the school yesterday.Jack cant have arrivedyet,otherwisehe would have telephoned me.（上海 1997）It couldnt have been Mr. Smith. He has

25、gone to China.不太可能是史密斯先生。他已去了中国。另外,留意 may不行用于疑问句,它的这种功能已为can 所取代。例如 Can they have missed the bus.的答句是 ：Yes,they mayhave done. 而不是 Yes,they can have done.这一点要留意。Must 有时也能用于否定句 ：His absence must not have been noticed. 此句和 His absence cant have been noticed.的意思是一样的。很多评论者认为这类句子是不行能成立的 ,但它们正在为越我来越多的人所接受和

26、使用,在美国英语中特别如此。对正在发生的事情进行估计,就采纳 ”情态动词 +be+现在分词 ”结构,可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结其中情态动词的区分与上相同。析：答案 A、D。can 通常不用于确定句表推测。 ”should+have+-ed分词 ”表示 ”过去原来应当做 ”,但实际上没有做,意思是”本该. ”,带有批判口气:I was really anxious about you.You shouldn t have leftwithouta word. NMET2001 。”will+have+-ed分词”只是将来完成时的一种形式。【考例】 1.Its nearly

27、seven oclock. Jackbe here at any moment. NMET95A.mustB.needC.shouldD.can【分析】 shouldoughtto 表示很可能、预期的意思,指一种尝试性推论,可认为是 must 的语气较弱的对应词 ,意思是 ”应当会、肯定。 。吧”。试比较：Our guests must be home by now.I am certain 我们的客人现在肯定到家了 。（依据他们动身的时间 、路程远近、速度等详细条件, 我能确定 / 确定他们现在已经到家了。）Our guests shouldought to be home by now.T

28、hey probably are,but Im not certain.我们的客人现在该到家了。（含义是我想他们很可能到家了,但我不能确定 ”）与 must 不同仍在于它经常表示将来：-When can I comeforthe photos.Ineed them tomorrow afternoon.-Theybereadyby12:00.NMET1998 A.canB.should可编辑资料 - - - 欢迎下载精品名师归纳总结C.might D.need表示不太可能可用 shouldn toughtn t to:There shouldn toughtn t to be any diff

29、iculties.不该有任何困难。析：填 C。意思是 ”将近七点了。杰克很可能随时会到。” 另外,在近几年的 NMET中,对情态动词及其它语法项目的考查均放到肯定的语境中进行 ,要求考生利用所学英语各项基础学问进行初步的语言运用,而不再是单纯的语法学问题和短语题。这类试题往往通过题干的其他部分或附加句子供应某个信息 ,然后让考生依据这个信息进行合理推理,产生新的想法和熟识。因此,在做这类题时,除要熟识所考查的语法规章外,仍要仔细分析句子的结构,留意抓住关键词,分析上下文的规律关系。不能单凭语法规章做题。巩固练习1.
