Summary
情态动词主要用以说明说话者的情感、态度和语气。情态动词不能单独作谓语,需要与实义动词原形一起构成谓语。
Task1: 情态动词用法
(1)can与could的用法
①表示能力:can表示现在的能力,could表示过去的能力。can 表示能力时,有时可与 be able to 通用。
I can play basketball now,but I couldn’t when I was young.现在我会打篮球了,但小时候我不会。
②表示请求或许可:could 语气比 can 委婉,回答时只能用can。
-Can/Could you lend me a hand?
-Yes,I can.
“你能帮我一下吗?”
“可以。”
③表示推测,意为“可能”,多用于否定句或疑问句。
-Can he be in the reading room now?
-No, he can't be in it.Because I saw him in the office just now.
“他现在可能在阅览室吗?”
“不,他不可能在(阅览室)。因为我刚刚在办公室看见他了。”
④表示理论上的可能性,意为“有时可能会”。
It can be quite cold here at night.
这里夜间有时可能会很冷。
Notes:can 与be able to表示“能力”时的区别
can 用于指现在,常表示自身具有的能力;be able to 用于各种时态,表示经过努力后所具有的能力。
The bus can carry 60 passengers.
这辆公共汽车能载 60 名乘客。(自身具有的能力)
He was able to escape from the fire before the firefighters arrived.
他在消防队员到来之前从火灾中逃了出来。(经过努力后所具有的能力)
(2)may与might的用法
①表示征求对方的许可或允许。
-May I come in?
-Yes,you may/can.(或No,you cant.)
“我可以进来吗?”
“是的,你可以进来。”(或“不行,你不能进来。”)
You may go now.
你现在可以走了。
②表示推测(把握不大),意为“可能”,多用于肯定句。might 比 may可能性更小。
He may come, or he may not.
他可能来,也可能不来。
It may/might rain this afternoon. You'd better take a raincoat.今天下午可能会下雨。你最好带件雨衣。
③may用于祈使句,表示祝愿。 May you succeed!祝你成功!
May you have
