语法知识精讲
一、情态动词的基本用法
1.can/could
(1)表示能力,意为“能、会”。
◆The smallest good habits can make a big difference.
最小的好习惯会产生很大的作用。
◆It was several minutes before I could take in what he was saying.
过了好几分钟,我才理解他说的是什么。
(2)表示推测,意为“可能”,用于否定或疑问句中。can比could语气强。
◆This can't/couldn't be done by him.
这事不可能是他做的。
(3)表示请求或许可。在疑问句中,could可以代替can,语气更加委婉。
◆Could I use your phone, please?
我可以用一下你的电话吗?
(4)表示理论上的可能性。
◆Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries.
要始终相信美好事物是可能的,记住失误也会变成经验教训,从而获得更多发现。
(5)用于否定句和疑问句,表示惊异、怀疑、不相信等态度。
◆He can't/couldn't do this.
他不可能这样做。(表示不相信)
◆Can this be done by him?
这可能是他做的吗?(表示疑惑、惊讶)
(6)用于固定结构中
①can't...too/enough表示“无论……也不为过;越……越好”。
◆You can't be too careful when a young child is near water.
小孩子在水边时,你还是越小心越好。
②can't help doing sth.表示“禁不住做某事”。
◆Hearing this story, I couldn't help laughing.
听到这个故事,我禁不住大笑起来。
注:
can和be able to都可以表示能力,二者有时可互换。但be able to可以表示“终于做成某事”,有更多时态和人称的变化;且可与某些情态动词或系动词连用,如might、ought to、seem等;还可用非谓语动词形式。
◆If you are careful enough, you will be able to work out this problem.
如果你足够仔细,那么你就能做出这道题。
◆He seemed to be able to put complicated thoughts into simple words.
他似乎能把复杂的思想用简单的话语说出来。
◆She grasped my hand, not being able to say anything. 她抓着我的手,什么话也说不出来。
2.may/might
(1)表示请求或许可。在疑问句中,might可以代替may,语气更加委婉。

我可以问一下你是否喜欢乘船旅行?
◆Might I borrow your computer?
我可以借一下你的电脑吗?
(2)表示可能性,可以对现在、过去或将来进行推测。通常用于肯定句和否定句。might比may语气弱。
◆Parents may scold their children when their rooms are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space.
当孩子们的房间不整洁时,父母也许会责骂孩子,但他们也应该理解孩子们的房间是他们的私人空间。
◆If you forgot to turn it off when you went away, you might burn down the house.

(3)表示祝愿,常用结构为“May+主语+动词原形!”。
◆May you succeed!
祝你成功!
(4)用于固定结构“may/might as well+动词原形”中,意为“最好、倒不如”。

3.must/have to
(1)must的用法
①表示义务,意为“必须”(主观意志)。回答must构成的一般疑问句时,若是否定回答,一般不用mustn't,而用needn't或是don't have to,因为mustn't意为“绝不能、一定不要”,而不是“不必”的意思。
◆Men and women must be treated equally in education and employment.
在教育和就业方面,男性和女性必须被平等对待。
②must常用于肯定句中,表示猜测、推测,意为“想必、一定”。其具体用法如下:

(3)用于条约、规定、法令、法律等,意为“必须”。
◆The club members shall wear uniforms.
俱乐部成员都应该穿统一的制服。
5.should/ought to
(1)表示责任、义务、劝告、建议等,意为“应该”。 表示责任或义务时,ought to等同于should,只是前者的语气稍重。

为什么我们不给那位女士买一朵花呢?这会让她感觉好一些。

◆—Can someone fetch some water?

(2)表示请求或要求,would比will更客气、委婉。而在句末用won't you表达邀请的语气。

你介意帮我打开窗户吗?
(3)will表示规律性,意为“注定会”。
◆Wearing proper clothes is important too, for locals will judge you by what you wear.
穿合适的衣服也很重要,因为当地人会根据你的穿着来评判你。
7.need/dare
need和dare既可用作情态动词,也可用作实义动词。用作情态动词时,主要用于否定句和疑问句中;用作实义动词时,可用于各种时态。
(1)用作情态动词。
◆—Are you coming with me?
——你要和我一起去吗?

二、情态动词+have done

(2)may/might have done用于肯定句或否定句,表示对过去情况发生的可能性的不确定猜测。其肯定形式意为“可能/也许(已经)……了”,其否定形式意为“可能/或许还没有……”。用might代替may,则语气更加委婉和含蓄,表示的可能性更小。
◆I think she may have gone to the library.
我想她可能去图书馆了。
2.表示对过去发生之事的后悔、遗憾、责备等情绪,至于具体表示的意义则由所用的情态动词及其结构而定。
(1)ought to have done表示对过去没有做某事的遗憾、后悔甚至责备等情绪,意为“本该……的(但却没有……)”; oughtn't to have done表示对过去做了某事的遗憾、后悔甚至责备等情绪,意为“本来不该……的(但却已经……了)”。
