语法项目——情态动词(2)
初识语法——在美文运用中体悟
背美文 Today, a new student came to our class and our teacher let him sit next to me. He smiled at me when he sat down. I thought to myself he couldn't be difficult to get along with. When having English class, I noticed that he kept frowning. He may lose to catch what the teacher said. After class, I told him I could help him with his English after school. He must be surprised at my words, for it took him a few minutes to make a response.

慧学语法——在归纳演绎中学通
一、情态动词表示推测的用法
[先感知]
①(教材典句)The children must have been very excited as they opened it.
②You can't be hungry, for you had lunch only two hours ago.
③He couldn't have watched TV yesterday, for he knew he would have an exam.
④(教材典句)Who could it be from?
⑤The little problems that we meet in our daily lives may be inspirations for great inventions.
⑥(教材典句) ... they might not receive their presents if they were not good.
[会发现]
(1)must表示推测时只用于肯定句中,句①中的must have done表示对_____的推测。
(2)can/could也可以用来表示推测,在否定句中用来代替must。句②和句③中的can't和couldn't表示“_________”,句④中的could表示“______”,注意此时could不能表示对过去的推测,_____________才能表示对过去的推测。
(3)may和might表示推测时语气较弱,且might相比may语气更为不确定。
过去
不可能
可能
could have done
[明规则]
1.表示推测的基本用法
①must只能用于肯定句中,意为“一定;必定”,否定句中要用can/could。
②can/could用于疑问句中,意为“可能”;用于否定句中,意为“不可能”,语气强烈。
③may/might用于肯定句中表示不十分肯定的推测,意为“有可能”;用于否定句中意为“可能不”,表示一种不太确定的语气。
2.表示对现在的推测用“情态动词+do”,表示对过去的推测用“情态动词+have done”。
3.表示推测时,must的语气最强烈,can/could not表示否定推测,否定语气强烈, may的语气较弱,might的语气最不确定。
4.might和could均可表示“可能性”,在肯定句中二者意思相近,用于否定句时二者含义不同,could not=can not,表示“不可能”,语气强烈。
5.should也可以表示推测,且常表示有依据或有前提的推测,意为“按说应该……”,语气仅弱于must。 如:
It is already 10 o'clock now. They should be there.
现在已经十点了。他们按说应该到了。
[对点练] (用适当的情态动词或所给单词的适当形式填空)
