时态
肯定句 否定句或疑问句
过去时
must / may / might have done
can / could have done
现在时
must / may / might do
can / could not do
将来时 may
2. 表示猜测的情态动词之间的区别

→ You have read the book before, haven’t you?
→ You must have read the book before, haven’t you?
He may have come to see you yesterday, he?
→ He came to see you yesterday, didn’t he ?

you ?

二） 请求，征求意见
一定要获得批准才能做的请求：
May/ Can I …？
1） may 比can 正式
2） 不用might或could, 没有委婉之说.
2．不一定是一定要获得批准才能做，而只是自己想做,只是听听别人意见.
Shall I do sth. ? / Shall we do ..?
3. 请别人做事
Will / Would / Can / Could you do sth. ?
祈使句 + will / would / could/can + you ?
Open the door, will you?
注意: 该句回答时不可用: Yes, I could/would.而用 Yes, I will./Sorry, but I …/ I’d like to but …
4. Shall we do ...? / Let’s do sth., + shall we?
Let us do sth, will you?/ shall we?
Let us do the work alone , will you?/shall we?
Let us有两种可能：
1) 包括说话的对方，这时let us是一种比较正式的用法。后面用shall we.
2) 不包括说话的对方,后面用will you.
Let us students play football today, Mr Cheng , will you?
三) 责备: should, ought to
注意时态: 对过去应该做而没做的事责备: should / ought to + have done
对现在或将来责备: should / ought to + do/ be doing
You didn’t come yesterday.
No, but I think I should have.
四) need / dare
1. 这两个词有共同的地方: 即可以作情态动词又可以作行为动词.
2. Needn’t have done ：过去不必要做，但是做了。（没有need have done这种肯定式。）
3. 比较needn’t have done 和 didn’t need to do
needn’t have done: 指现在看来当时是没有必要去做的，但是当时去做了。
didn’t need to do: 当时就没有必要去做。
I stayed at home yesterday because I didn’t need to go school.
I needn’t have called him because he already knew the time.
4. Dare有其过去时：Dared
五）Shall 用于二，三人称表示：命令，允诺，警告。

He shall remain outside if he hasn't done the homework.
六）Be able to do 和can的区别
1. be able to do可用于将来时

In the late 1860’s, industry in America grew rapidly. More factories meant more jobs, but working conditions were dangerous. Employees were forced to work as many as 16 hours a day in hot dirty rooms. Children of ten worked alongside adults. Wages were usually very low.
Workers tired to improved conditions by forming unions. One of the first important unions was the Knights of Labor wanted an 8-hour workday, high wages, and better working conditions. The union called for an end to the employment of children under age of 14.
Together with other unions, the Knights of Labor tried to make changes through collective bargaining(协商). Union leaders would meet with employers and talk. When collective bargaining failed, the unions resorted to strikes. When some strikes that the unions held turned violent, public opinion turned against them. Many members left the Knights of Labor, and by 1890 the union died out.
Other unions survived. The AFL, American Federation of Labor, was formed in 1881. It continued to push for the goals set by the Knights of Labor. However, most federal laws protecting workers and outlawing child labor were not passed until the 1930’s.
1. According to the passage, the Knights of Labor wanted all of the following except ______.
A. an 8-hour workday B. high wages
C. improving working conditions in the factories
D. an increase in the employment of small children
2. You can infer that most of the goals of the Knights of Labor were ________.
A. unwelcomed by the AfL
B. not reached until after the Knights of Labor died out
C. not helpful to women
D. welcomed by factory owners
3. How long did the Knights of Labor last?
A. 60 years B. 31 years C. 50 years D. 21 years
4. The word “resorted to” means ________.
A. stopped doing something B. gave up
C. turned to something else for help D. went on with

The CBS -- TV “National Drivers Test” showed that many U.S. drivers have a lot to learn. Here’s why:
CBS picked 1700 drivers to take the test in TV studios in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Los Angeles. More than two out of five of the drivers failed the test. And the average score was the lowest passing mark 51 points out of a possible 80.
Chicago drivers did best with an average of 53 points. Los Angeles drivers came next with 52 points. New York and Philadelphia drivers tied with 50 points --- 2 failing score. Drivers with 50 points or less were rated “poorly informed” by the judges.
Here are some of the test results:
1. Are men better informed drivers than women? Yes. Men averaged 52 points. Women got an average of 49.
2. Are older drivers better informed than younger drivers? No. Drivers under 26 averaged 52 points. Drovers from 27 to 45 averaged 51. Drivers over 45 failed, with a 48-point average.
3. Does education make a difference? Yes. College graduates averaged 53 points. High school graduates averaged 50 points. Those without high school got 48. And people who had take driver education courses scored an average of 53 points --- three more than those who hadn’t.
4. Does driving experience make a difference? Yes. Drivers with three or more years experience averaged 51 points. Drivers with less experience averaged 49.
Here are some surprising facts brought out by the test:
1. More than one out of three drivers did not know that a quick shutting and opening of the red light requires a full stop.
2. Three out of ten drivers did not know that an octagonal(eight-sided) sign means stop.
3. More than two out of three drivers did not know what to do when being “tailgated(追尾)”. The answer: slow down, steer to the right and let the driver behind pass.
The results of the test were turned over to the National Safety Council. They will help in future safety planning.

Dear Peter,
I am very glad to tell that I’ve just had my new flat decorated. Let me tell you something about it. My new flat is made up of 6 rooms. There are two bedrooms, a study, a living room, a kitchen sand a bathroom.
I like my study best, which faces south. Along two walls there is a set of bookcases. There is a desk by the window, on which is my computer. I also put two armchairs and a tea-table in it. So when my best friends come, we can chat there. One of the two bedrooms faces south and the other one faces north. The living room is between them. My living room is quite big. My family can have meals there and in the evening, we can sit on the sofa and watch TV.
What do you think of my flat? Hope you will come and stay with us here for some time.
Best wishes,
Yours,
