助动词及易用错的动词 1-5:Should

1-5:should
1.should 之后接原形动词
2.should的主要功能就是表示一种义务,译为“应当”。此时等于ought to
例:we(you, one, a man) should be kind to others.
    (我们应善待他人。)
3.但在下列结构中,习惯上也用should,有其不同的意思
(1)it is (natural/proper/right/advisable/desirable/no vonder) that... should(会)
……会……是自然的,适当的,正当的,恰当的,较好的,无疑的
例:it is natural that he should get angry.
(他会生气是很自然的事。)
it is proper that one who works hard should be successful.
(努力的人会成功,这是合理的。)
it is no wonder that such a naughty boy should be punished.
(这样顽皮的孩子会受到处罚,这是没有什么好奇怪的。)
(2)it is necessary/imperative/essential/important/urgent that...should(应当)
……应当……是有必要的
例: it is necessary that he(should) finish the work before leaving.
(他必须在走之前完成工作。)
在本结构中的should通常予以省略,而保留其后的原形动词。
例:it is important that he finish the job before leaving.
(重要的是,他必须在走之前完成工作。)
it is urgent that he do the work now.
(他现在应该赶紧做这项工作。)
(3)it is surprising/amazing that...should(居然)
令人惊异的是……居然……
例:it is surprising that he should be so kind.
(令人惊讶的是,他竟然这么仁慈。)
(4)it is (a pity/a regret/regrettable) that...should(居然)
令人遗憾的是……居然……
例:it is a pity that he should be so rude.
(他这么粗鲁,真令人遗憾。)
见虚拟语气一章。
4.意志动词的省略
意志动词如表“建议”(propose, recommend, suggest)、“要求”(ask, demand,desire,require,insist,request)、“命令”(order,command)、“规定”(rule,regulate)等,之后若有that从句做宾语时,that从句中也使用should,而should往往亦予以省略。
例:he suggested that we (should) go at once.
(他建议我们立刻去。)
they demanded that he (should) be quiet.
(他们要求他安静。)
*见虚拟语气一章。
5. lest表“以免”,为连接副词,所引导的从句亦使用should,而should也可予以省略
例:he came early lest he (should) be late.
= he came early for fear that he might be late.
(他怕迟到而来得很早。)
*见虚拟语气一章。
6,if从句若表示与将来状况相反时,应使用should,表“万一”之意
例:if you should be late again, you might spoil the plan.
(你万一再迟到,就会破坏这个计划。)
*见虚拟语气一章。
7.过去时的结构中,要用should代替shall
例:i told him that i should be at home that evening.
(我告诉他那天晚上我会在家。)
i said to him,"i shall be at home this evening."
(我告诉他:“今晚我会在家。”)
8.should have+过去分词
(1)表与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,译成“早应……”。
例:if you had not helped me, i should have died.
(你当时要是没救我,我就死了。)
you should have done it earlier.
(你应该早点儿做好的。)
it was such a fine sight. you should have seen it.
(这么好的景色,你当时真该看看的。)
(2)表“居然已经”,往往出现在下列结构中:
例:it is surprising that he should have passed the examination.
(令人惊讶的是他居然已通过了考试。)
it is a pity that he should have done such a stuqid thing.
(真遗憾他竟然做了这么愚蠢的事。)

助动词及易用错的动词 1-7: Can (Could)

1.表“能力”(=be able to),译成“能够”
例:he can cope with the problem.
= he is able to cope with the problem.
(他能够处理这个问题。)
2.表“可能性”,译成“有可能”

3.表“许可”(=may),译成“可以”

4.在疑问句或否定句中,表“可能性”,译成“有可能”或“不可能”

5.表对过去事情的否定推论
can't have 过去分词 不可能会……

表对过去事情的肯定推论,有两种句型:
(1)must have+过去分词 一定曾经……

(他看起来紧张兮兮的,一定是偷了你的钱。)
(2)may have+过去分词 可能曾经……
例:he may have studied hard when young.
(他年轻的时候可能很用功。)
注意
疑问句中表对过去事情的推论,则用can...have+过去分词?
例:can he have done it?
(他有可能做过此事吗?)
6.could为can的过去时,通常与另一过去时动词并用,用以表示过去的状况。
例:she could speak english well when she was ten.
(她10岁时英语就说得很好了。)
when she entered the house, she could smell something burnign.
(她走进屋子时,闻到有东西烧焦了。)

用子过去时中,表示过去的能力。

9.can与not并用时,不要写成can not,而要写成cannot或can't
例:he cannot/can't write letters.(o)
(他不会写信。)
he can not write letters.(非习惯用法)
注意
could与not并用时,则应写成could not或couldn't,不要写成could not。
10.有关can的惯用语

助动词及易用错的动词 1-6:Would

1-6:would
1.表过去将来时,与另一过去时动词并用
例:he said that he would try again.
(他说他会再试试。)
he said,"i will try again."
(他说:“我会再试试。”)
did you know when he would come?
(你当时知道他何时会来吗?)
注意
新闻英语中,常出现will与过去时动词并用的现象。
例:he said that he will visit the country sometime in june.
(他说6月份要找个时间去乡下。)
本句暗示he said虽为过去状态,但he will visit...由表示将来一定会发生的状态,在语法上并没有错。为了方便你的了解,特编了下列两段对话:
会话一:
a:i saw john a few days ago.
a:几天前我看到约翰。
b:what did he say?
b:他说了些什么?
a:he said that he would call on you yesterday.
a:他说昨天要拜访你。
b:but as far as i know, he didn't show up yesterday.
b:但是就我所知,他昨天并没有出现。
会话二:
a:i saw john a few days age.
a:几天前我看到约翰。
b:what did he say?
b:他说了些什么?
a:he said that he will call on you tomorrow.
a:他说明天要去拜访你。
b:i'll be expecting him then.
b:到时候我会等他的。
2. would+原形动词 如果……就会……
would have+过去分词
表虚拟语气,分别表与现在和过去事实相反。
例:(l)与现在事实相反
if ihad money now, i would buy a car.
(but i don't have money now.)
(如果我现在有钱,我要买部车。—一但我现在没钱。)
(2)与过去事实相反
if i had money then, i would have bought a car.
(but i didn't have money they.)
(当时我要是有钱,早就买车了。)
*见第七章虚拟语气。
3.would rather+原形动词 宁愿
例:i would rather go than stay here.
= i would sooner go than stay here.
= i would as soon go as stay here.
= i would as lief go as stay here.
(我宁愿走也不要留在这儿。)
4.(i would rather/would/i wish)+(that) 从句
与现在事实相反,that从句用过去时:若与过去事实相反,则用过去完成时。
例:(i would rather/would/i wish) that( he were here./he had time.)
(but he is not here.)
(but he doesn't have time.)
(我真巴不得他在这儿有时间。
——但他不在这儿没有时间。)
i would rather he had been here.
(but he wasn't here.)
(当时我真巴不得他在这儿。——可是他当时并不在。)
i would rather he had had time.
(but he didn't have time.)
(当时我真巴不得他有时间。——但是当时他没空。)
5.would you mind+ v-ing/if从句?你介不介意……
= do you mind+ v-ing/if从句
例:would you mind (doing it for me?/if you did it for me?
= do you mind+(doing it for me?/if you did it for me?
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
注意
would you mind 的口气要比do you mind客气。
同理:would you please do it for me?要比will you please do it for me?语气客气得多。
(请您帮我做这事好吗?)
注意
would you mind之后if从句中,动词须使用过去时,以便与过去时的would配合。do you mind之后的if从句中,动词要使用现在时,以便与现在时的do配合。

can和may的用法区别

Can 的用法:
1can表达能力句型 can + V …=be able to + V…
例:I can do it in another way.=I am able to do it in another way.
(我能以别的方法来做这件事。)
例:He said he couldn't walk any step farther.
=He said he was unable to walk any step farther.
(他说他再一步也走不动了。)
解说 如例所示“can…”在表达能力时可以和“be able to…”通用,如果要以完成时表达能力,通常只能使用“be able to…”
例:Since that accident, he has been unable to leave the house.
(自从那次意外事件,他就一直无法离开家。)
2can表达许可
例:Can I use your telephone?(我可以借用你的电话吗?)
Yes, of course you can.(可以呀,当然可以。)
No, I'm afraid you can't . I'm waiting for a long distance call from Shenzhen.(不好,我想不好,我正在等深圳要打进来的长途电话。)
解说 表达许可基本上可分为请求准许两种。表达请求可用“Can I/we…“May I /we…?”,或“Could I/we…?”等。表达准许则用“…can/may + V…关于“can”“may”的区别,有些文法书讲得很多,但是在现代英语,无论是美式英语或英式英语,都通用,只是“may”较为正式的用语,所以常用于writing. “Could I/we…?”“You could…”是许可的宛转表达法,此处的“could”是指现在或将来,并无过去的意思。
例:Could I take this home?”我可以把它带回家吗?)
“Yes, please. You could take it home if you like it.”
(是的,可以。如果你喜欢它,你可以把它带回家。)
3can表达可能性句型 can +V…=It +be +possible + for +O+ to V…
例:You can get there in 20 minutes' walk.
=It is possible for you to get there in 20 minutes' walk.
(走二十分钟你就能够到达那里。)
解说 若是要表达不可能就使用“can't…”,等于“It…impossible…”
例:There is no road to that little village, so you can't drive there.
It is impossible for you to drive to that little village, for there is no road running there.)(因为没有道路通达那个小村,你不可能开车到那里去。)
4can表达推测?
例:Can the news be true?(这消息会是真的吗?)
例:The news can't be true.(这消息不会是真的吧。)
解说 “can”表达推测通常是用在疑问句和否定句。若是要以肯定句式来表达推测通常都使用“must +V…”
例:The news must be true.(这消息必定是真的。)
若是推测所指的是过去的事物,通常就使用完成时。
例:She must have said so.(她必定是这么样说了。)
例:Can she have said so?(她会这么说了吗?)
例:She can't have said so.(她必定不会这么说了。)
5can的惯用表达句式句型 cannot…too +adj. (再……也不为过)
例:When driving, you cannot be too careful.
(开车时你再小心也不为过 [=你越小心越好]。)
解说 本句式在cannot to 后通常都用“be”
例:I cannot but do so now.=I cannot help doing so now.
(现在我不得不这么做了。)
解说 本句式可以使用“could…”来表达过去之事物的不得不……”
例:I missed the last bus last night, so I could not but walk all the way home.(昨夜我没有赶上最后一班公车,我只好走路回家了。)
解说 本句型的两句式所表达的意思相同,学习上应注意“cannot but”之后要接原形动词,不可接用“to +V”。又下面两例句所示的也是属于本句型的句式,所表达的意思也相同。
例:I cannot choose but do so.=I can't help but do so.)(我不得不这么做。)

May 的用法
1may表达许可
例:You may have the cake now.(现在你可以吃蛋糕了。)
例:May I come in?(我可以进来吗?)
解说 表达许可“may…”“can…”的区别:
“may…”通常表达说话者的许可。
例:You may go home now. =I allow you to go home now.
(你现在可以回家。=现在我准你回家。)
例:May I borrow your towel?(我可以借用你的毛巾吗?)
No, you may not.(不行,你不可以借用我的毛巾。)
“can…”表达许可时用法比较随便。例:You can go home now.
本句可作如下的两种解释:
1.你现在可以回家。——我准你回家。
2.你现在可以回家。——如老师要我转告你说你现在可以回家,或者如既然你已把工作做完了,按规定你现在可以回家等。
2.的解释法并非说话者的许可。换言之,“can…”可以表达第三者的许可,或客观条件的许可。例如我们看到一个男生要走进女用洗手间,我们就可以对他说:
That's a lady's toilet. You can't go in there.
像这种场合,假定你说“You may not go in there.”并不很通顺,也会被误为你是洗手间的管理员了。
请再注意下列两句意思的区别:
例:May I smoke here?(我可以在此吸烟吗?——请示对方的许可。)
例:Can I smoke here?(这里我可以吸烟吗?——询问对方这里是否禁止吸烟。)
2may表达可能性
例:The news may be true.=Maybe [Perhaps] the news is true.
(或许这消息是真的。)
例:She may come to your birthday party tomorrow.
=Maybe [Perhaps] she'll come to your birthday party tomorrow.
(或许她明天会来参加你的生日宴会。)
解说 “may…”表达可能性时其意思等于“maybe”“perhaps”,即或许;也许“might…”也一样可用于表达现在或将来的可能性,只是语气较为宛转或对可能性觉得较为不确定。
He might have a hand in that case.=Maybe [Perhaps] he has a hand in that case.
(或许他涉及那个案子。)
表达可能性的“may/might…”通常不用于疑问句。可能性的疑问通常都使用“Can…?”或者“Do you think…?”,例如:
表达过去的可能性则使用“may/might have +p. p.”的句式,例如:He might have left for the United States.(他可能已到美国去了。)
3may表达目的
例:He studies hard in order to get passed in the exam.
=He studies hard in order that he may get passed in the exam.
(为了要考试及格他努力在用功。)
例:He sold his house in order to pay his debt.
=He sold his house in order that he might pay his debt.
(为了要还债他把房子卖掉了。)
解说 如例所示表达目的时使用“to V…”比之使用“that +S+ may/might V…”较普通。“in order to V…/in order that +S+ may/might V…”是表达目的强调句式。
4may表达祈愿句型 may you /he …+ V…
例:May you succeed.=I hope [wish] you'll succeed.(祝你成功。)
例:May God save our country.(愿上帝保佑我们的国家。)
5May的惯用表达句式
句型 may well +V…=there is good reason for +O +to V…
例:You may well say so.=There is good reason for you to say so.
(你很有理由这么说。——难怪你这么说。)
句型 may/might as well +V…=had better +V…
例:We may [might] as well start at once.=We had better start at once.
(我们最好立刻动身吧。)
解说 本句式常用于表达提议或劝告。
