There must be something about the mysterious(神秘的)smile.【句意】一定有一些有关神秘微笑的东西。

【分析】must be表示肯定的判断
【语法点滴】
情态动词表判断的用法
1.表示对现在或将来情况的推测、判断
"must+动词原形"用于肯定句中，表示"肯定推测或判断"，有"一定"之意。

如：
I have just dropped in on him. He must stay at home.我刚刚拜访过他。

他现在一定呆在家里。

The man must be your head teacher.那人一定是你们的班主任。

"can/ could+动词原形"用于否定句或疑问句中，表示"否定推测或判断"，有"不可能"之意。

用can't还是用couldn't没有时态差异，只是用can't的语气比couldn't强。

如：
The boy is honest. He can't lie.那男孩很诚实。

他不可能说谎。

There is no light in the room. She can't be at home now.房间里没有灯光。

她现在不可能在家里。

"may/might+动词原形"多用肯定句形式，其"推测、判断"的语气不确定，用may意为"也许、可能"；用might不表示过去式，只表示语气比may还弱，意为"或许，大概"。

如：If I'm busy, I may not go.如果我忙的话，也许就不去了。

I thought it might rain.我想可能会下雨。

2.表示对过去情况的推测、判断
在上述情态动词后面接"have+done"形式，即可表示推测或判断过去的情况。

如：
The road is wet. It must have rained last night.路上是湿的。

昨晚一定下雨了。

He can't
have worked at the office last night, for he had to go to a party a t six in the afternoon.昨晚他不可能在办公室工作，因为在晚上六点他得参加一次聚会。

Tom worked here for two weeks. He may/might have known it.汤姆过去在这儿工作两个星期。

他也许/大概知道此事。

3.表示对现在进行情况的推测、判断
在上述情态动词后面接"+doing"形式，即可表示推测或判断现在进行的情况。

如：
The girl is not out. She must be doing her homework now.那小女孩没有出门。

她现在一定在做家庭作业。

Ling Ling can't be playing the piano now. She went to the books hop with her mother a few minutes ago.玲玲不可能在弹钢琴。

几分钟前她和她母亲去书店了。
