一、疑问句中表示“请求许可、提出建议、征询意见”的情态动词

(1) can/could/may/might表示“请求许可”,could 和might语气更委婉,但回答时不可用could 和might。如:

-Can/Could/May/Might I use your dictionary tomorrow morning?

-Yes, you can/may. (否定:No, I’m afraid not.)

(2) will/would表示“提出建议”,主语必须为第二人称,would语气更委婉,但回答时不可用would。如:

Would you do me a favor to move away the bench on the road?

你能否帮我搬走路上的那条板凳?

(3) shall表示“征询意见”,主语必须为第一人称或第三人称。如:

-Thanks for inviting me to your party. ________ my classmate Jane come?

-Of course. She is always welcome. (2014年江苏苏北四市一模)

A. Shall B. Should C. Will D. Must

分析:答案为A。此句shall用于疑问句中,且主语为第三人称,表示征询对方意见。

二、表具体事情实际发生的可能性的情态动词

(1)must用于肯定句,表示“一定,准是”。

(2)may表示“或许,也许”,might可能性弱。

(3)can用于否定句、疑问句或感叹句,表示“疑惑、惊讶、不相信”。

(4)could用于肯定句,也可用于否定句、疑问句,可能性比can弱。
