表推测
初中英语语法专项突破
考频分析
初三人教版中,情态动词must/might/could/can't表推测是重点语法模块,考频占词法总量的l5%左
右,贯穿试卷核心题型:单项选择(1-2题)、完形填空(2-3题)、语法填空(1-2题)。在语境理解
类题目中,情态动词表推测的语气强弱及适用场景往往是解题关键。
考查内容
。推测语气强度:ust(肯定推测)、might/could(可能推测)、cam't(否定推测)的语气差异与场景
匹配
·时态语境适配:must/might//could/can't+动词原形表对现在情沉况的推测,must/might/could/can't+have
done表对过去情况的推测
。句式功能辨析:在陈述句中表推测的基本用法,在疑问句中can/could表推测的特殊应用(night/could
可用于疑问句,must/can't一般不用于疑问句表推测)
知识点一:情态动词must/might/could/.can't表推测
1.ust(肯定推测,语气最强,意为”一定;肯定”)
。适用场景:用于肯定句,基于逻辑或证据得出的确定性结论
。例句:
1.The light is on..He must be at home now.(灯亮着,他现在一定在家。)
2.She studies very hard..She must pass the exam.(她学习很努力,肯定能通过考试。)
2.might/could(可能性推测,语气较弱,意为”可能;也许”,could可能性略大于night).
。适用场景:用于肯定句或否定句(might not/could not),表示不确定的推测
。例句:

情态动词表推测
1.He might come to the party tonight,.butI'n not sure.(他今晚可能来参加聚会,但我不确定。)
2.This book could be Mary's.It has her name on it.(这本书可能是玛丽的,上面有她的名字。)
3.cn't(否定推测,语气较强,意为”不可能”)
·适用场景:用于否定句,基于逻辑或证据得出的否定性结论
·例句:
l.He can't speak French.He has never been to France..(他不可能会说法语,他从没去过法国。)
2.The ground is dry.It can't have rained last night.(地面是干的,昨晚不可能下雨了。)
知识点二:情态动词must/might/could/can't表推测
1.must(肯定推测,”一定,肯定”,可能性≥90%)
·用法场景:用于肯定句,对现在/过去的情况进行有把握的推测
·对现在情况推测:结构:主语+ust+动词原形(状态动词)/be+形容词/名词(动作动词表状
态)
·例句:
1.She must know the answer.(kow是状态动词,用must+原形know,”她一定知道答案。”)
2.The light is on,so he must be at home.(be at home表状态,”灯亮着,所以他一定在家。”)
●对过去情况推测:结构:主语+must have+动词过去分词
·例句:
1.The ground is wet.It must have rained last night..(”地面湿了,昨晚一定下雨了。”)
2.He looks tired..He must have worked all day.(”他看起来很累,一定工作了一整天。”)
2.might/could(可能性推测,”可能,也许”,might可能性约30o-50%,could约40o60%)
。用法场景:用于肯定句/否定句(might not/.could not),对现在/过去的情况进行不确定推测;could
语气比night稍强
·对现在情况推测:结构:主语+night//could+动词原形/be+形容词/名词
·例句:
1.She might come to the party tonight..(”她今晚可能来参加派对。”)
2.This could be the right answer,butI'm not sure.(”这可能是正确答案,但我不确定。”)
●对过去情况推测:结构:主语+might/could have+动词过去分词
●例句:
1.He isn't here.He might have gone to the library.(”他不在这儿,可能去图书馆了。)
2.You could have told me earlier.(”你本可以早点告诉我的。”,此处could have done也表”本
可以做但未做”,需结合语境区分推测与虚拟)
3.cnt(否定推测,”不可能,一定不”,可能性≤10%)

情态动词表推测
。用法场景:用于否定句,对现在/过去的情况进行有把握的否定推测(can表推测仅用于否定句
cnt和疑问句Can..?)
·对现在情况推测:结构:主语+cant+动词原形/be+形容词/名词
·例句:
1.He can't speak Chinese.He is from America.('他不可能说中文,他来自美国。”)
2.The story can't be true.It's too amazing..(”这个故事不可能是真的,太离奇了。)
。对过去情况推测:结构:主语+can't have+动词过去分词
·例句:
1.She can't have seen me yesterday..I wasn't there..(”她昨天不可能见过我,我当时不在那儿。
”)
2.They can't have finished the work in an hour.It's too difficult.(”他们不可能在一小时内完成
这项工作,太难了。”)
4.句式转换与注意事项
·疑问句推测:用Can.?(”可能…吗?”),不用nust/night/could
·例句:Can this be your book?(”这可能是你的书吗?”)
。时态一致性:推测过去情况必须用”情态动词+have+过去分词”,不可用’情态动词+动词过
去式
。错误:He must went home.(正确:He must have gone home.)
●语气强弱对比:must(肯定)>can't(否定)>could>might(可能性由强到弱)
知识点三:情态动词must/might/could/can't表推测
1.must(肯定推测,”一定,肯定”)
。基础用法(中考必背):
1.对现在情况的肯定推测→例句:He must be at home now,because the light is on.
2.对过去情况的肯定推测(must have done)→例句:She must have finished her homework,for
she is watching TV.
2.might/could(可能性推测,”可能,也许”,could可能性略大于might)
。基础用法(中考必背):
1.对现在情沉的可能性推测→例句:It might rain tomorrow,so take an umbrella.
2.对过去情况的可能性推测(might/could have done)一例句:He could have gone to the library,
but I'm not sure
3.cant(否定推测,”不可能”)

考法精析
考法一:情态动词表推测的基本用法辨析
核心:根据语境和推测语气强弱, 选择must/might/could/can't进行正确推测
真题1(单项选择):
The light is off.He beat home now.
A must B might C could D can't
答案:D
解析:由”灯关着”这一证据可知, 此处表示否定推测”不可能”, 用can't。must表肯定推测, might
和could表可能性推测, 均不符合语境。
真题2(语法填空):
She studies very hard, so she (pas) the exam. Let's congratulate her in advance
答案:must pass
解析:根据”学习非常努力”这一逻辑, 得出肯定推测”一定能通过考试”, 用must+动词原形, 故
填must pass。
考法二:情态动词表推测的时间与句式综合运用
核心:结合时间状语或上下文语境,判断推测的时间维度(现在/过去/将来),匹配正确的情态动词
+动词形式结构
真题1(语法填空):
The door is locked. They (go) out for shopping.
答案:must have gone
解析:由”门是锁着的”这一现在状态推测过去动作, 用”must+have+过去分词”结构, go的过去
分词为
gone。
真题2(完形填空):
Listen! Someone (sing) in the next room. Who could it be?
A.must sing
B.must be singing C.might sing
D.might have sung
答案:B
解析:由时间标志词”Listen!”可知动作正在进行, 用”情态动词+be﹢现在分词”的现在进行时推
测结构, must表肯定推测符合语境。
考法三:情态动词must/might/could/can't表推测的综合运用
4
初三全一册人教版
【语法专项突破】
情态动词表推测
核心:结合时间语境判断推测时态(现在过去),根据可能性程度选择合适情态动词,并掌握疑问
句及回答规范
真题1(单项选择):
The ground is dry.It
rained last night.
A must have
B might C can't have D could
答案:C
解析:由'ground is dry”可知对过去情况进行否定推测,结构应为”情态动词+have+过去分词',cant
表”不可能,符合语境,nust have表肯定推测与dy'矛盾,might/could后缺have,故选C。
真题2(语法填空):
-Where is Lucy?She
(be)in the library.I saw her go there just now.
-But she
(not be)there now.The library closes at 5 pm and it's 6 pm already.
答案:must be;can'tbe
解析:第一空根据”saw her go there'”对现在情况进行肯定推测,用must be;第二空由it's6prm”
和'closes at5pm”可知对现在情况否定推测,用can't be。
解题小妙招
推测用法妙招
推测先看肯否定,否定只能用can't:
肯定推测must强,might could表可能:
时间维度是关键,现在进行be doing:
过去动作看完成,have gone要记牢;
must be doing表当前,情态动词加原形:
语境证据来辅助,强弱匹配才正确。
