情态动词表猜测的语气由强到弱
解答情态动词表示猜测的试题时,一要清楚被猜测的时间,二要清楚有无客观事实根据.若有客观事实根据,则无论是肯定还是否定的猜测,猜测语气最强且符合时间要求的为最佳答案;情态动词表示猜测时语气从强到弱的顺序是:must,will,would,ought to,should,can,may,could,might.若无客观事实根据,纯凭主观臆断,则猜测语气最弱且符合时间要求的为最佳答案.如:

A.may B.might
C.could D.must

情态动词的推测性用法
用适当的情态动词表示讲话者对客观事物的主观看法,这就是情态动词的推测性用法.常用来表示推测的情态动词有 might,may,must,can.might,may,must表示的可能性程度由弱变强,must表示"一定", can则一般用于疑问句或否定句中.例如:
1.They must be talking about us on the radio right now.
此刻,他们一定在电台里谈论我们的情况.
2.She may have missed her train.
她可能没有赶上火车.
3.I don't know why he is late,he might have had an accident.

5.That can't be the postman,it's only seven o'clock.
才七点钟,不可能是邮递员.
表示推测的情态动词后的动词不定式可用完成式,进行式和一般式三种.用完成式表示对过去情况的推测.例如:
6.Her father thought that she must have met a fairy.
她父亲认为她一定碰上了仙女.

10.He can't be working at this hour.
这个时候他肯定不会在工作.
推测性情态动词后用不定式的一般式有两种情况:如果不定式是状态动词,则表示对现在状态的推测.如果不定式是动作动词,则表示对将来动作的推测.例如:

14.It might rain this evening.
=It's possi- ble that it will rain this evening.
今天傍晚天可能要下雨.
上述表明,推测性情态动词是以现在(讲话时)为基础,对过去,现在,将来的动作或状态的推测.因此,在构成陈述部分含有推测性情态动词的反意疑问句时,要注意反意疑问句中动词的不同形式.例如:
15.The boy must have thought John was mad,didn't he
那孩子肯定以为约翰疯了,是吗
