2．注意情态动词表示推测的语义差别。
3．掌握情态动词后接不定式完成体的不同意义。
常用情态动词can /could， may/might，must用法
can
1)表能力、技能
He can speak five languages.
区别：be able to
be able to 表人的行为能力，较具体。而can 为一般行为能力,主语为人、物皆可。
2)表许可，意义接近于may. You can go now.
3)表建议和请求,用于疑问句式。 Can you open the door for me ?
4)表推测，用于否定或疑问句式。
---who is the man over there ?
---It must be our master.
---It can't be him. He left for Shanghai this morning.
could
1)能力，为can 的过去式。 2)建议和请求，较can 委婉。 3)表可能，语义较弱。
It could be quite cold when you get to Cairo.
注意： -Could I use your computer ?
-Yes, you can .(此处不用could)
may
1)表许可，意同can （2）。 2)表建议和请求，意同can (3) 3)表可能，推测。(用于肯定或否定)
He may be home now.
NMET 2002 ,25 ---Is John coming by train?
---He should ,but he may not .He likes driving his car.
Might 1)表许可，较may 委婉。 2)表请求，较may 委婉。

must

2)表示禁止。 You mustn't only think of others.

(他一定在家等我们。)
注意：
-Must I do it now ?
-Yes, you must.(No, you needn't )
复习中需要注意的几点
1.情态动词表推测时语气的差异
肯定句中可用:must , may ,might, etc. must语气最强
否定句式中可用can not , could not , may not ,might not. can not 语气最强，不可能
2.情态动词后的不同形式 1)情态动词+原形 2)情态动词 be doing
He may be playing football on the playground. 表一种动作的进行性
3)情态动词+完成体**** 这是高考频现点。
NMET 2001 33

A. mustn't leave B. shouldn't have left
C. couldn't have left D. needn't leave
20. Sorry I'm late. I ________ have turned off the alarm clock and gone back to sleep again. (春考2000)
A. might B. should C. can D. will
前题表责备，不该；而后者是一种推测。
可简单归纳如下： 情态动词+完成体一般表过去时间，有时可表现在完成的概念。
needn't have done 本不必
should(n't) have done本（不)该
could(nt) have done 本（不)能够
must can may +have done 表对过去或现在完成时间的推测。
