高中英语情态动词精讲与解析概说助动词(auxiliary)主要有两类:基本助动词(primary auxiliary)和情态助动词(modal auxiliary)。

基本助动词有三个:do, have和be;情态助动词有十三个:may, might; can, could; will, would; shall, should; must, need, dare, used to, ought to. 上述两类助动词的共同特征是,在协助主动词构成限定动词词组时,具有作用词的功能:1)构成否定式:He didn't go and neither did she.The meeting might not start until 5 o'clock.2)构成疑问式或附加疑问式:Must you leave right now?You have been learning French for 5 years, haven't you?3)构成修辞倒装:Nowhere can he obtain any information about his sister.Hardly had he arrived when she started complaining.4)代替限定动词词组:A: Who can solve this crossword puzzle?B: Tom can.A: Shall I write to him?B: Yes, do.情态助动词的特征基本助动词与情态助动词最主要的区别之一是,基本助动词本身没有词义,而情态助动词则有自己的词义,能表示说话人对有关动作或状态的看法,或表示主观设想:What have you been doing since? (构成完成进行体,本身无词义)I am afraid I must be going. (一定要)You may have read some account of the matter. (或许已经)除此之外,情态助动词还有如下词法和句法特征:1)除ought和used以外,其他情态动词后面只能接不带to的不定式。

如果我们把oughtto和used to看做是固定词组的话,那么,所有情态动词无一例外地只能接不带to的不定式:We used to grow beautiful roses.I asked if he would come and repair my television set.2)情态助动词在限定动词词组总总是位居第一:They need not have been punished so severely.3)情态助动词用于第三人称单数现在时的时候,没有词形变化,即其词尾无-s形式:She dare not say what she thinks.4)情态动词没有非限定形式,即没有不定式、-ing分词和-ed分词形式:Still, she needn't have run away.5)情态助动词的“时”的形式并不是时间区别的主要标志。

在不少场合,情态助动词的现在时和过去时形式都可以表示现在、过去或将来时间:Would you mind very much if I ask you to do something?She told him he ought not to have done it.6)情态助动词之间是相互排斥的,即在一个限定动词词组中只能出现一个情态助动词,但有时却可以与have和be基本助动词连用:You should have washed the wound.Well, you shouldn't be reading a novel.现将情态助动词的各种形式列表如下:情态助动词的意义和用法情态助动词从最普通的意义上来说,是修饰分句意义的一种方式,它可以反映说话者对其表述是否真实和可能的程度作出判断。

但不同的情态助动词本身所包含的意义和用法又不同,下面逐个分析。

1)can和could的用法1. 表示能力或客观可能性,还可以表示请求和允许。

如:Can you finish this work tonight?Man cannot live without air.— Can I go now? — Yes, you can.注意:①could也可表示请求,预期委婉,主要用于疑问句,不可用于肯定句,答语应用can(即could不能用于现在时态的简略答语中)。

如:Could I come to see you tomorrow?Yes, you can. (否定答语可用No, I'm afraid not.)②can表示能力时,还可用be able to代替。

如:I'll not be able to come this afternoon.2. 表示惊异、怀疑、不相信的态度。

(主要用在否定句、疑问句或惊叹句中)Can this be true?How can you be so careless!This cannot be done by him.3. “can(could) + have + 过去分词”的疑问或否定形式表示对过去发生的行为怀疑或不肯定。

如:He cannot have been to that town.Can he have got the book?2)may和might的用法1. 表示许可。

表示请求、允许时,might比many的语气更委婉一些,否定回答时要用mustn't表示“不可以”、“禁止”、“阻止”之意。

如:You may drive the car.— Might I use your pen? — No, you mustn't.用May I ... 征询对方许可在文体上比较正式,在口气上比较客气。

在日常口语中,用CanI ... 征询对方意见在现代口语中更为常见。

2. 用于祈使句中表示祝愿。

如:May you succeed!3. 表示推测、可能(疑问句不能用于此意)。

He may be very busy now.4. “may(might) + have + 过去分词”表示对过去发生的行为的推测。

如:He may not have finished the work.3)must和have to的用法1. 表示必须、必要。

如:You must come in time.回答must引出的问句时,如果是否定的回答,不能用mustn't,而要用needn't或don't have to。

— Must we hand in our exercise books today?—Yes, you must. (No, you don’t have to.)2. “must be + 表语”的结构表示推测,它的否定或疑问式用can代替must。

This must be your pen.3. “must + have + 过去分词”的结构常用在肯定句中,表示对过去发生的行为的推测。

它的否定或疑问式用can代替must。

He must have been to Shanghai.4. have to的含义与must相似,两者往往可以互换使用,但have to有各种形式,随have 的变化而定。

must与have to有下列几点不同:①must表示的是说话人的主观看法,而have to则往往强调客观需要。

如:The play is not interesting. I really must go now.I had to work when I was your age.②must一般只表现在,have则有更多的时态形式。

③二者的否定意义不大相同。

如:You mustn't go. 你可不要去。

You don't have to go. 你不必去。

④询问对方的意愿时应用must。

如:Must I clean all the room?4)dare和need的用法1. need表示“需要”或“必须”,作情态动词时,仅用于否定句或疑问句中,在肯定句中一般用must, have to, ought to,或should代替。

如:You needn’t come so early.— Need I finish the work today?— Yes, you must.注意:needn't + 不定式的完成式“表示本来不必做某事而实际上做了某事”。

如:You needn't have waited for me.2. Dare作情态动词时,主要用于疑问句、否定句和条件从句中,一般不用在肯定句中。
