1、肯定回答用may/ might/ can,否定回答用may not, cant, mustnt.May I turn on the TV?Yes, you may/ can.(No, you cant/ mustnt.)2.表示可能性,“也许”。这时may和might表现在,只是might在语气上更不肯定一些。如:You may/ might have some fever.表示可能性时,may/ might不用于疑问句,可用can/could或别的说法。Is it likely to rain?3.祈使句中表示祝愿:May you succeed!(三)must的用法1.表示义务、命令或劝告
2、,“必须”。You must tell me the truth.你必须和我说实话。在回答由must引起的问题时,否定回答用neednt或dont have to,表示“不必、没必要”;而mustnt表示“不准许”的意思。Must the ladies wear dresses?No, they dont have to / they neednt.2.表示推测,“肯定”。此时,must只用于肯定句。在否定句或疑问句中,用can/ could:There must be a mistake. Can / Could there be a mistake?(四)need和dare的用法情态动词n
3、eed“需要”和dare“敢”通常只用于否定句和疑问句中。You need not come so early. How dare you be so rude?但need和dare可作为实义动词,后跟动词不定式,可用在所有句型中,注意此时他们的否定式和疑问式与情态动词不同。(五)shall和will的用法1.shall用在第一、三人称作主语的疑问句中,来征求意见。Shall I go now? Shall we invite her, too?2.shall用于所有人称,表示说话人的决心、保证、许诺、威胁、警告、命令等强烈的感情,如:You shall have an answer by t
4、omorrow. He shall suffer for this.3.will可以表示“愿意、肯、会、固执”等意义,而非将来,would则更婉转:I will pay for it. Were going on a climbing trip. Come if you would.4.will可以表示倾向、习惯,在否定句中可以表示“不肯、不能”等意思:Oil and water will not mix. This machine wont work.5.would可以表示过去的习惯,类似used to:He would come to see me on Sunday when he wa
5、s here.(六)should / ought to的用法 两者大多数情况下可以互换。Ought to的否定式为ought not to / oughtnt to 。1.表示道义上的责任,义务或要求,有时表示劝告,“应该”,如:You ought to / should pay more attention to what your teacher says.2.表示对现在和将来的推测:This pen ought to/ should be yours.3.“should/ ought to have+过去分词”表示对过去的推测,“应该已经”。有时表示“本应该做而没有做”;“should
6、not/ ought not to have+过去分词”表示“做了不应该做的事情”,是“本不该”的意思,因而它们都含有责备的语气:He began two hours ago. He ought to have finished filling in the forms now. You should not have asked him for help.4.表示讲话人惊奇,失望,愤怒等感情:Why should I believe you? Whats happened to that money? How should I know?(七)had better表示“最好”,后接动词原形,
7、其否定式为had better not+ 动词原形would rather意思是“宁愿”,表示选择。它有两种用法:一是在肯定句中后边直接跟动词原形,其否定句是在would rather后加not,即:would rather not+动词原形;二是它后边可以接从句,该从句的谓语动词用一般过去式表示虚拟语气。由于would rather表示选择,它后边可接than。二、情态动词+ have+ done(一)must have done表示对过去的推测,意思是“一定已经,想必已经,准是已经”,只用于肯定句中。The streets are wet. It must have rained.街道是湿
8、的,准是下雨了。否定要用“cant/ couldnt+ have+过去分词”,意思是“不可能”:The pocket cant have been lost there.(二)may/ might have done表示对过去的推测,意思是“也许已经 ,可能已经”。用于肯定或否定句中。疑问句中用can或could.此外,“might have+过去分词”也表示“本来可以但没有实现”的意思,含有责备的口气。例如:He may have gone to bed. You might have told me earlier.你本可以早点告诉我的。(埋怨责备)(三)neednt have done“
9、neednt +have+过去分词”表示“本来不需要做”,“做了不必做或不需要做的事”,如:I neednt have borrowed the money yesterday.注意didnt need to do表示“没有必要做而实际上也没有做某事”。(四):can/ could have done:用来谈过去的情况1.在疑问句、否定句中,表示对过去的行为的怀疑和不可能,这时它们没有时间上的差别,只是could的语气更弱一些:Who could have taken them? He cant have taken it home.2.could have done在肯定句中,表示“那时本来
10、可以 ;差点就要”,有时用来进行婉转地批评:He could have told her, but he did not choose to.(五)should/ ought to have done表示“过去应该做某事却没有做”;“should not/ ought not to have+过去分词”表示“做了不应该做的事”。含有责备或遗憾的意思:You should have come here ten minutes earlier.三、几组情态动词用法的区别(一)can和be able to的区别。在一般将来时和现在完成时中只能用be able to。can表示具备某种能力,但不一定做
11、事;而be able to表示后天努力设法去做,成功后说明有能力,如:He was able to swim across the river in fifteen minutes.(= He managed to swim across the river in fifteen minutes.)(二)must与have tomust强调主观意志,必要性来自说话者的主观意志,“必须”。Have to强调客观因素,“不得不”。He must stop smoking.他必须戒烟。(说话人认为他必须)You have to go and see the boss.你一定得去见见老板。(客观因素)
12、注意:must not表示“绝对不可”;dont have to(或havent got to)表示“不必,没必要”,两者意思极为不同。(三)would与used towould可表示反复发生的动作或某种倾向。Used to表示过去的习惯动作或状态,强调现在已不存在。She used to work into the night.过去她常工作到深夜。(现在不了)She would work into the might.以前她常工作到深夜。(不表示现在不了)【例题精析】例1.
