情态动词
情态动词表示说话者对某一行为的态度和观点,主要包括揣测、判断、需要、可能、意愿等。①情态动词不能独立作谓语,只能和动词原形一起构成谓语。②没有人称和数的变化(have to例外,用于第三人称单数时用has to)。③每个情态动词都有多个意义。④情态动词有助动词的作用,可用来构成否定句疑问句及用于简明答语。⑤个别情态动词(can,may,shall,will)有现在式和过去式两种形式,过去式用来表达委婉的语气,时态性不强,可用于过去、现在或将来。⑥情态动词属不及物动词,故没有被动语态。英语中常用的情态动词主要有can, could, may, might, must, have to, will, would, shall, should, need, had better…

If we keep trying, we will be able to achieve our goals.
2.have to表示“不得不,必须”,强调客观上的必要性,有人称和时态的变化。否定式为don’t/doesn't/didn't have to,“不必”。
e.g. You have to wear uniform when on duty, don't you?

We don't have to rush —there's plenty of time.
