表示推測的情態動詞
在英語中，表示對某件事物的確定程度，即表示推測的時候，我們通常會用到以下情態動詞，must, might, could, may, can’t, couldn’t.
can和could的區別和用法
1. can表示體力和腦力方面的能力， 或根據客觀條件能做某種動作的“能力”。 例如：
►Can you speak English?
►Can you make a cake?
can用在否定句和疑問句中時有時表示說話人的 “猜測”或 “不肯定”。
►Can the news be true?
(在日常會話中，can可代替may表示“允許”，may比較正式。)
2. could 是 can的過去式，表示過去有過的能力和可能性，還有懷疑和不肯定的意思(在否定和疑問句中)。
►She couldn’t skate when she was five years old.（能力）
►At that time we thought the story could be true.（可能性）
could用來提問，是有禮貌的請求 Could.... Please?
語氣較為婉轉。
►Could I speak to Mr. Smith, please?
might和may的區別和用法:
1. may的用法:
a. 表示“允許”或“請求”。
►May I come in?
在使用這一用法時需注意：may表示“允許”的否定形式是must not，意思是“不應該”，“不許可”。
► —May I take this book out of the reading-room?
—No, you mustn’t．
b. 表示說話人的猜測，認為某一事情“或許”或“可 能”發生。
►He may know the answer．
c. may用在感嘆句中可表示祝愿、愿望。
►May you succeed．(祝你成功。)

2. might的用法:
a. might可以代替may，表示現在時間的動作，但語氣較為婉轉客氣或更加不肯定。
