20、t couldn ' t b那不可能是真的。What Can could they be doing?他们会在干什么呢？We could go there this summer.今年夏天我们可能要去那儿。注：Can有时也用于肯定句中表示推测，主要用于表示理论上的 可能性(即从理论上看是可能的，但实际未必会发生)，或表示 有时之意。如：EVe n experie need teachers Can make mistakes.即使是有经验的教师也可能出错。She Can be Very Un PIeaSa nt. 她有时很令人讨厌。(2) 从时间关系看，对现在或将来情况作推测，后接动词

21、原形； 对正在进行的情况作推测，后接be doing结构；对过去情况作推测， 后接动词完成式。如：He could have gone home. 他可能已经回家了。He Can ' t couldn ' t have Understc他不可能理解了。Why does he know this? Can Could Some One have told him about it?他怎么知道？会是哪个人告诉他了吗？(3) “ could+成式”除表示对过去的推测外，还有以下重要用法： 表示过去没有实现的可能性，常译为 本来可以”女口：I could have Ient you t

22、he money . Why didn ' t you ask me?我本 来可以借这笔钱给你的。你为什么不向我提出？ 用来委婉地责备某人过去应该做某事而没有去做，常译为本来应该” 如:YoU could have helped him.你本来应该帮助他的。 表示差点儿就要”女口：I could have died laugh ing. 我差点儿笑死了。2. may / might用于表推测的用法表示推测，两者都可用，只是might比may语气更不确定，表 示的可能性更小。(1) 在句型使用方面：两者均可用于肯定句和否定句，但用于疑问句时，may通常不用于句首，但可用于疑问句的句中(如

23、特殊疑问 句等)，而might尽管可以用于疑问句的句首，但不算普通，通常会 改用其他句式(如用could等)。如：He may might know the an swer.他可能知道答案。He may might not believe you.他可能不会相信你。And who may might She be? 那么她会是哪一位呢？(2) 从时间关系看，对现在或将来情况作推测，后接动词原形； 对正在进行的情况作推测，后接be doing结构；对过去情况作推测， 后接动词完成式。如：He may might tell his wife. 他也许会告诉他妻子。He may might be W

24、riti ng a letter.他可能在写信。She may might have read it in the papers.她可能在报上已读到过此事。(3) “might+成式”除表示对过去的推测外，还有以下重要用法： 表示过去某事可能发生而实际上却并没发生。如：It WaS really Very dan gerous. I might have killed myself. 那真的 是太危险了，我差点没命了。A lot Of men died who might have bee n SaVed .很多人本来可以 获救的却死了。 表示委婉的批评或责备。如：You might have

25、 made greater progress. 你的进步本来可更大You might at least have an SWered my letter.你至少可以回我一封信嘛。3. must表示推测的用法must表示很有把握的推测，其意为 一定会”肯定会”只用于肯 定句，一般不用于否定句或疑问句。表示对现在或未来的情况作推测， 后接动词原形；表示对过去情况的推测，接动词完成式。如：I must be the happiest woma n On earth!我一定是世界上最幸福的女人了。No, he must be lyi ng. 不，他一定在撒谎He must have mistake n

26、 my meaning.他一定误会了我的意思。4. should have done 的用法should have done只用于谈论过去情况，主要有两个用法：一是 用于推测过去已经发生的情况，二是用于指本该发生而实际上未发生 的情况。如：You should have told me so before.你早就应该告诉我。He should have arrived by now.此时他本该至 到TOLook at the time! We should have been at the theatre tenminutes ago.瞧都什么时候了 ！十分钟前我们就该到戏院了。5. n ee

27、d have done 的用法need have done结构主要用于否定句或疑问句，一般不用于肯定 句。用于否定句时，表示本来不必做某事，但实际上却做了；用于疑 问句时，用于询问某一过去动作的必要性。如：You needn ' t have hurried.你当时实在不必那么匆忙。She needn ' t have Come in PerSOna4etter would have beenenough.她本不必亲自来写封信来就足够了。Need you have Paid so much?你当时真须要付那么多钱吗 ？Need they have sold the farm?他

28、们那时非得把农场卖掉不可 吗？历届NMET中表推测的情态动词的用法情态动词是中学英语学习中的一个重点和难点，也是高考的重点考察内容之一。其中表示推测用法的情态动词在近几年的高考中更是 屡见不鲜。现结合近几年的高考题目，对表推测的情态动词的用法作 一归纳，希望对各位考生会有所帮助：【考例】1. Naturally, after I told her What to do, my daughter go and do the opposite!A. may B. Can C. must D. should（2003年普通高等学校春季招生统一招生考试英语试题（安徽卷）【分析】Can,may,must

29、都可用来表示”推测”但侧重点各有不同： May常用来指”事实上的可能性”而Can则表示一种”理论上的可能 性”例如：The railways may be improved.=It is POSSibIe that the railways will be improved.=PerhaPS/Maybe/POSSibIy the railways will be improved.铁路可能会得到改进。（意味着已有具体的改进计划或方案。）The railways Can be improved.=It is POSSibIe for the railways to be improved.铁路可

30、以得到改进。（意思是铁路还不完善，尚有问题存在。）理论上的可能性（Can）比事实上的可能性（may）更弱。在一般的陈述句，Can与SOmetimeS几乎相同，表示一种偶然的可 能性。比如:EVen expert drivers Can make mistakes.甚至是很熟练的驾驶员 也可能会犯错。=EVe n expert drivers SOmetimeS make mistakes.=It is POSSibIe for the expert drivers to make mistakes.因此，如果讲的是一种特殊情况，不是一般情况，就用may,试比较:Mr Reed looks pa

31、le.He may be ill.Mr Reed is in poor health.He Can be ill at any time.MUSt指逻辑必然，作 想必” 准是” 一定”解，用来表示我们对某 事有把握的推论或揣测。（考虑到迹象如此，再无别的结论=It SeemSCerta in thatThey must be Very tired now, for they have bee n Worki ng the whole mor ning.他们现在一定是非常累了，因为他们整个上午都在工作。析：填C.must。意思是”不出所料，当我告诉女儿要做的事时，她 准会去做相反的事。”【考例】

32、1、Marybe in PariS.I SaW her in town only a fewmi nu tes ago.(NMET1994)A.mustn' t B.shouldn ' t C.can 't.may not2、.-Is John comi ng by tra in? (NMET 2002 Tianji ng )-He should,but henot.He likes driving his car.A. must B.can C.need D.may【分析】May用于否定时，not不是否定may，而是否定句中的动 词，这一点与Can不同，试比较：He

33、may not know the truth.他可能不知道事情的真相。(=It is POSSibIe that he didn ' t know the truth).He CannOtknOW the truth.他不可能知道事情的真相。must表示推测的这种用法通常用在肯定句中，在疑问句中常用can(可能),在否定句中常用Can'虾可能，不会是)，而不用mustn' t 例如：-Somebody is knocking at the door. Who Can it be ? It must be Wang Hong.-No, It Can ' tte W

34、ang Hong, because She left for Shanghai this morni ng.-有人在敲门。会是谁呢？ 一定是王红。-不，不会是王红，因为她今天早晨就动身去上海了。因而 You must be joking.在意义上相当于 YOUCan' t be serious.析：1、填C。意思是”玛丽不可能在巴黎。几分钟前我还看见她在镇 上。2、填D。意思是”-约翰会坐火车来吗？-应该会，但他可能不 会。他喜欢开车。”【考例】 1.-1 heard they Went Skiing in the mountains last Wi nter. (NMET 2002B

35、eiji ng )-Ittrue because there WaS little snow there.A.may not be B.w on't be C.could n't beD.must n't be【分析】Could,might表示过去的可能性。I thought it might be true.我本认为那是真的。He could be Very Un reas on able.他有时可能毫不讲理。析：填C。它是对去年冬天所发生的事进行评价。【考例】1.-Are you comi ng to Jeff ' S party? (NMET 2000)-

36、I ' m not Sure.Igo to the Con Cert in stead.A.must B.would C.should D.might2.-Look!The clouds are gatheri ng.-Yes'm afraid itbe pouri ng dow n soon.A,ca n B,must C,should D,might【分析】could和might表示现在的情况时，更带有不肯定性和慎 重味道，构成礼貌或婉转说法，包含或许的意思：A:I wonder Where Tom is. B:He may/might/could be in the Ii

37、brary.（PerhaPS he is in the library.）因此在 won der,fear,be afraid 等后接的从句 中，通常用may/might/could, 表达一种探询的观点：I WaS afraid you might be out of sorts.我怕你可能心情不痛快。假设性的可能和试探性的可能，也用could和might :OUr team might still Win the race.（可以意 译为：It isPOSSible,th ough UnIikeIy,that ）析：1、2 均填 D.might【考例】Mr. BUSh is on time

38、 for everything. Howitbe that he WaS late for the opening Ceremony?A. CanB . should C. may D. must（2001年上海普通高校春季招生考试试卷）【分析】表示推测的may通常不用于一般疑问句，而要用Can代替。 Can用于一般疑问句时，还可表示惊讶或怀疑，意思是 ”（到底）可 能有这样的事吗？ ”，比如：“There is the doorbell. ” Who Can it be at this time of day?有 人按门铃。”这个时候到底会是谁呢？ ”MUSt 也偶尔用于疑问句： MUSt

39、there be some good reason for the delay?这个问句设想的是一个肯定的回答，可以解释为” Doesthere have to be some good reason ?”may可用于特殊疑问句或 Wh-从句，意思是”（到底）是”、”不知 是否”:I won der What it may mean.我不知道这究竟是什么意思。How old may his father be?他父亲到底有多大年纪？（比How oldis his father?委婉的说法。）析：填1、A.can.（布什先生做什么事都很按时。他怎么可能会在开 幕式上迟到呢？）【考例】1. Sor

40、ry rm late. Ihave turned off the alarmclock and go ne back to sleep agai n.（ 2000年普通高等学校春季招生考试（北京、安徽卷）A. mightB. shouldC. CanD. Will2. There Were already five people in the Car but they man aged to take me as well.It _ a comfortable journey. (NMET95)A.can't be B.shouldn't beC.mustn't hav

41、e beenD.could n't have bee n【分析】 情态动词have + -ed分词”结构可以表示对已发生的事情 进行推测，就表示的可能性程度而言，must最大，could其次，may 更次之，might最小。must + have + -ed分词：用于肯定句，表示推测过去某事 肯定,一 定，准是”发生了。 其否定形式为：Can' t / couldn ' t haveed,表 示过去不可能发生某事。 may(might) + have + -ed 分词：用于肯 定句和其他否定句，表示对已发生事情的不肯定的推测，意为可能, 大概”，其中might较may语

42、气更弱，把握更小。Can/could用于否 定或疑问句中，表示对过去发生的事件的 怀疑或不肯定” could比 Can更表示说话人语气的不肯定。例如：I mailed that Ietter a Week ago. He must have received it.我一周前就发出了那封信，想必他一定收到了。I Can ' t find my keys. I may / might have left them at the school yesterday.JaCk Can' t have arrived yet,otherwise he would have telephon

43、ed me.(上海 1997)It could n't have bee n Mr. Smith. He has gone to China. 不太可能 是史密斯先生。他已去了中国。另外，注意may不可用于疑问句，它的这种功能已为 Can所取代。 例如 Can they have missed the bus?的答句是：Yes,they may have done. 而不是 Yes,they Can have done. 这一点要注意。MUSt 偶尔也能用于否定句： HiS absence must not have been noticed. 此句禾口 HiS absence Can

44、 ' t have been noticed.的意思是一 样的。许多评论者认为这类句子是不可能成立的， 但它们正在为越我 来越多的人所接受和使用，在美国英语中尤其如此。对正在发生的事情进行推测，则采用”情态动词+be+现在分词”结构， 其中情态动词的区别与上相同。析：答案A、D。Can通常不用于肯定句表猜测；” should+have+ -ed 分词”表示”过去本来应该做 ”，但实际上没有做，意思是 ”本 该.: 带有责备口气 :I WaS really anxious about you.You shouldn ' t haveleftWithOUta word.(NMET2

45、001) ; ” will+have+ -ed分词”只是将来完成时的一种形式。【考例】1t's nearly SeVen o'clock. JaCk be here at anymome nt. (NMET95)A.mustB.n eedC.shouldD.ca n【分析】should(ought to)表示很可能、预期的意思，指一种尝试性 推论，可认为是must的语气较弱的对应词，意思是”应该会、一定。 吧”试比较：Our guests must be home by no w.(I am Certa in 我们的客人现在一定到家了。(根据他们动身的时间、路程远近、速度等具体

46、条件， 我能断定/肯定他们现在已经到家了。)OUr guests should(ought to) be homeby no w.( They PrObabIyare,but I ' m nOt Certain我们的客人现在该到家了。(含义是我想他 们很可能到家了，但我不能肯定”与must不同还在于它常常表示将来：-When Can I come for the photos?I need them tomorrow after noon.-Theybe ready by 12:00. (NMET1998) A.can B.shouldC.might D.n eed表示不太可能可用 s

47、houldn ' t(oughtn ' t to):There shouldn ' t(oughtn 'td) be any difficulties. 不该有任何困 难。析：填C。意思是”将近七点了。杰克很可能随时会到。” 另外， 在近几年的NMET中，对情态动词及其它语法项目的考查均放到一定 的语境中进行，要求考生利用所学英语各项基础知识进行初步的语言 运用，而不再是单纯的语法知识题和短语题。这类试题往往通过题干 的其他部分或附加句子提供某个信息，然后让考生根据这个信息进行 合理推理，产生新的想法和认识。因此，在做这类题时，除要熟悉所 考查的语法规则外，还要

48、认真分析句子的结构，注意抓住关键词，分 析上下文的逻辑关系。不能单凭语法规则做题。巩固练习1. Michael _ be a policeman, for he's much too short.A. need't B. Can't C. should D .may2. Joh nny,you _ play With the knife. You _hurt youself.A.w on 't,ca n't B.must n't,may C.should n't,must D.ca nt't,should n't3. Pe
