  表示推测情态动词的用法一、用法归纳1. 表示推测的情态动词有must, can, could, may, might等,且语气由左向右依次减弱。could, might并不一定是can, may的过去式,有时只是语气分别比can, may更弱。2. must (一定会,准会) 只用于肯定句;can (可能)一般用于疑问句或否定句;may (也许) 用于肯定句或否定句。虽然must和may均可用于肯定句,但在语气上must比may强得多,must表示有把握的肯定推测,而may表示没有把握的肯定推测。虽然can和may均可用于否定句,但在语气上can’t(不可能)比may not(可能不)要强得多,can’t是表示有把握的否定推测,而may not是表示没有把握的否定推测。could, might可用于肯定句、否定句或疑问句中,其区别在于语气上强弱的区分。3. should, ought to (按理应当), would, will,(很可能)等也可表示推测,语气都较肯定,且由左至右依次增强,但较must稍弱。4. 关于表示推测的情态动词后面所接动词形式,有下列三种情况:若对此刻正在发生的事,接“be +现在分词”;若对现在或未来情况的推测,接动词原形;若对过去情况的推测,接“have +过去分词”。二、实例分析◎—Excuse me. Is this the right way to the Summer Palace?—Sorry, I am not sure. It ________ be. (湖北卷)A. might B. willC. must D. can【分析】答案选A。由I am not sure(我没有把握)可知,后文是没有把握的肯定推测,用might。◎You might just as well tell the manufacturer that male customers ________ not like the design of the furniture. (上海卷) A. must B. shall C. may D. need 【分析】答案选C。. may not意为“可能不”。句意是:你不妨告诉厂商男顾客可能不喜欢这种家具的花样。◎—Isn’t that Ann’s husband over there? —No, it ________ be him—I’m sure he doesn’t wear glasses. (全国卷)A. can’t B. must not C. won’t D. may not【分析】答案选A。由No和后文I’m sure…可知,是有把握的否定推测,所以用can’t (不可能)。◎—When can I come for the photos? I need them tomorrow afternoon. —They ________ be ready by 12:00. (全国卷)A. can B. should C. might D. need【分析】答案选B。should表示“按理应当,大概”。用might语气太不肯定,顾客可能走掉。[1][2][3]下一页 说明:引用此文请注明出处,并请保留该文章链接地址,谢谢~~◎I have lost one of my gloves. I ________ somewhere. (北京春)A. must drop B. must have dropped C. must be dropping D. must have been dropped【分析】答案选B。对已经发生的事进行推测用“must have +过去分词”,答案D是被动式,应排除。◎—I stayed at a hotel while in New York. —Oh, did you? You ________ with Barbara. (全国卷)A. could have stayed B. could stay C. would stay D. must have stayed 【分析】答案选A。表示对过去情况的推测:“你可能和Barbara住在一起了”;must语气太肯定,与前面具有疑问语气的Oh, did you?不符。◎—There were already five people in the car but they managed to take me as well. —It ________ a comfortable journey. (全国卷)A. can’t be B. shouldn’t be C. mustn’t have been D. couldn’t have been【分析】答案选D。既然小汽车上“已有五人”,且是“设法”才把你带去的,如此拥挤,旅途当然“不可能”舒服。◎—Tom graduated from college at a very young age. —Oh, he ________ have been a very smart boy then. (全国III)A. could B. shouldC. might D. must【分析】答案选D。由上文可知,应是有把握的肯定推测,用must(一定)。◎You ________ be tired—you’ve only been working for an hour. (四川卷)A. must not B. won’tC. can’tD. may not【分析】答案选C。由后文“你才只工作了一个小时”推断,“你不可能就累了”。表示有把握的否定推测,用can’t。must not不允许;may not可能不。◎It’s nearly seven o’clock. Jack ________ be here at any moment. (全国卷)A. must B. needC. should D. can【分析】答案选C。nearly暗示“时间不早了”,“按理应当(should)”Jack“随时(at any moment)”都有可能到达这里。must又语气过强;can一般不用于肯定推测;need意义不通,也不用于肯定句。◎I didn’t hear the phone. I ________ asleep. (全国卷)A. must be B. must have been C. should be D. should have been【分析】答案选B。当时我没不听到电话铃响,那“一定是己经睡着了。上一页[1][2][3]下一页 说明:引用此文请注明出处,并请保留该文章链接地址,谢谢~~◎—Is John coming by train?—He should, but he ________ not.
