2、at a solution can be found.3 He can be very forgetful sometimes.4 I may stay at home this weekend.（实际可能性）5 Peter might come to join us.(实际可能性) 6 It will be sunny in the daytime ,but it could rain tonight.(实际可能性)表示请求和允许。表示请求，口语中常用could代替can，使语气更委婉。1 Can we turn the air conditioner on?2 Any police off

3、icer can insist on seeing a drivers license.3 In soccer, you cant touch the ball with your hands.4 Could you have her call me back when she gets home, please?5 I wonder if I could just ask you to sign this.表示对现在的动作或状态进行主观的猜测，主要用在否定句和疑问句中。1 It cant be easy caring for a man and a child who are not you

4、r own.2 Can the man over there be our head master?表示惊异、怀疑、不相信等态度，主要用在否定句、疑问句和感叹句中。1 Can this be an excuse for not giving them help?2 This cant be true.3 How can you be so crazy.特别说明：（1） could用来表示请求时，语气委婉，主要用于疑问句，不能用于肯定句，答语应用can（即：could不能用于现在时态的简略答语中）。如：Could I use your dictionary?Yes, you can.(否定回答可

5、用：No, Im afraid not.)(2) can和be able to辨析can(could)和be able to都可以表示能力，意思上没有区别。但can只有现在式和过去式，而be able to则有更多的形式。如：Ive always wanted to able to speak fluent English.Those bags look really heavy, are you sure youll be able to carry them on your own?但是，表示在过去某时的某一场合经过一番努力，终于做成了某事，通常不用could，而用was/were abl

6、e to来表示。这时，was/were able to相当于managed to do或succeed in doing。如：After the accident it was a long time before she was able to walk again.The fire was very big, but most people were able to escape from the building.(3) 惯用形式“cannot too”表示“无论怎么也不（过分）”。如： You cannot be too careful.你越小心越好。 惯用形式“cannot but+

8、May I征询对方许可在文体上比较正式，在口气上比较客气，在日常用语中，用Can I征询对方意见更为常见。1 Might I borrow your pen?2 I wonder if I might speak to your son.表示可能性的推测，通常用在肯定句和否定句中，含有“或许”“大概”“可能”之意；用might代替may时，则语气显得更加不肯定。1 It may rain this afternoon.2 She might come to join us this afternoon.3 I suppose he might have missed the train.may

9、用于祈使句表示祝愿1 May you succeed.2 Long may he live! 愿他能持续住下去。3 May you have many more days as happy as this one.4 May she rest in peace.愿她安息。惯用句式：“may well+ 动词原形”，意为“完全能，很可能”，相当于to be very likely to“may as well或might(just)as well+动词原形”意为“最好，满可以，倒不如”，相当于“had better或there is no reason to do anything else.1

10、 It may well change forever the way you look at Greek art.2 There may well be a real problem here.3 There is nothing to do, so I may as well go to bed.4 You may as well tell us now, well find out sooner or later.5 I suppose we might as well go home.6 And if you have to plough the field anyway, you m

11、ight as well plant it at the same time.二must和have to情态动词用法例句must表示“必须，应该”之意，语气比should，ought to强烈。其否定形式mustnt表示“不准，不应该，禁止”等意1 You must come to school on time.2 Everybody must obey the law.3 You mustnt drive so fast in the street.4 We mustnt waste any more time.在回答带有must的问句时，否定回答常用neednt或dont have to，

12、表示“不必”，而不用mustnt1Must I come back before ten? Yes，you must.(No, you neednt)表示有把握的推测，意为“一定、准是、相必”，只用于肯定句中1 It must be my mother.2 You must be hungry after a walk.3 There must be a hole in the wall. have tohave to“必须，不得不”，意义与must相近。但must表示的是说话人的主观看法，而have to则往往强调客观需要。1 The film is not interesting. I r

13、eally must go now.2 I have to go now, because my mother is in hospital.must只有一种形式，即现在式与过去式都是一种形式，而have to则涉及各种人称、时态等方面的变化形式。1I had to work hard when I was your age.2I will have to learn how to use a computer.3In order to take the exam, well have to finish the whole book by the end of this month .两者的

15、swer this afternoon.(允诺)2 He shall be sorry for it one day, I tell you. （警告）3 You shall do as I say. (命令)4 If you children dont do as I tell you, you shall not go to the party.

16、观推测或期待。意为“想必，大概，或许”1 It should be a nice day tomorrow.2 Try phoning Robert, he should be home now.3 He should be around sixty years old.还可以用在if引导的条件句中，表示一件事听起来可能性很小，但也不是完全不可能，相当于“万一”的意思。从句谓语用should+动词原形构成，主句都一定用虚拟语气1 Ask Tom to ring me up if you should see him. (你万一见到汤姆，请让他给我打个电话)2 Should I be free

17、tomorrow, Ill come. (万一我明天有时间，我就过来)3 If things should change suddenly, please let me know. (万一情况突变，请通知我)用于疑问句或感叹句中，表示意外、惊异的情绪，意为“竟会”，与why，what，how，who连用，如果是疑问句，则不需要回答。1 Why should anyone want to marry Tony?2 Dont ask me. How should I know?五will和would情态动词用法例句will/would用于表示意志或意愿。will指现在，would指过去。1 He

19、alk. (人们总会说闲话。)3 When we worked in the same office, we would often have coffee together.表示推测，意为“很可能，大概”。will表示推测比should把握大，比must把握小。1 These things will happen.2 That will be the messenger ringing.3 It would be about ten oclock when he left home.表示功能，意为“能，行”。惯用形式：will do/would do表示“解决问题”、“就行”。1 That

20、will be all right.2 Either pen will do.3 It would not do to work too late.（工作太晚不行。）用于否定句中，意为“不肯”、“不乐意”1I wont listen to your nonsense.2No matter what I said, he wouldnt listen to me.特别说明：would与used to辨析would可用来表示过去反复出现的动作，但不能表示过去存在的状态，所以我们不能说：“she would be a quiet girl.”另外，would强调过去某种特定情况下的活动，是完全过去的

21、事情，同现在没有联系。而used to则着眼于过去和现在的对比，隐含现在已不存在，动作或状态都可表示。Would可以表示不规则的习惯，used to则不可。如： He used to be a naughty boy and cause trouble. I used to get up at six in the morning. Sometimes she would take a walk in the neighboring woods. In those days, whenever I had difficulties, I would go to Mr. Chen for hel

Yes, you must.(No, you neednt)2You neednt have hurried.(=It was not necessary for you to hurry，but you did).你当时不必这么匆忙。做实义动词时，其变化与一般的实义动词相同，后接带to的不定式（need doing = nee

23、d to be done ）,过去式用needed、did you need?和didnt need,肯定式用needs/needed/need,疑问式用do、does、did提问，否定式要在前面加dont、doesnt、didnt1.

24、lp clean up after the party?(need somebody to do something) 4They didnt need to start so early.(do not need to do)dare用于表示“敢于”之意。做情态动词，没有人称和数的变化，主要用于否定句、疑问句和条件状语从句中1Dare you tell her the truth? Yes, I dare. /No, I darent.3 How dare you accuse me of lying!4 He darent admit this.用作实义动词时，其变化与一般的实义动词相同。

25、在肯定句中，dare后接带to的不定式；否定句中，dare后既可接带to的不定式，也可接不带to的不定式。1 Only a few journalists dared to cover the story.2 He doesnt dare (to) go there alone.3 Dont you dare (to) touch it?七ought的用法：情态动词用法例句ought to do表示“应该”之意1 You ought to take care of him.2 Ought I go now?Yes, you ought to. /No, you oughtnt to.表示推测。

28、过去已发生行为的推测，意为“也许/或许已经（没有）“。一般用于肯定句或否定句中，不用于疑问句。用might则表示语气更加不肯定。1 You may have learnt the news.2 He may not have heard his name called.3 Sorry Im late. I might have turned off the alarm clock and gone back to sleep again.canhave donecannot have done表示对过去发生的行为的怀疑和不肯定，通常用在否定句和疑问句中。（can换成could时语气委婉）1 W
