考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞表達(dá)推測(cè)。can通常用于否定或疑問句中表示推測(cè),表示可能性。這句話的意思是“布什先生一直按時(shí)做好所有的事,他怎么可能開幕式遲到呢?”。用于否定句表示“不可能”,此時(shí)要與may not“可能不”的含義注意區(qū)分,如:
She may not tell lies. 她可能沒撒謊。
He can’t have been to your home. He doesn’t know your address. 他不可能去過你家,他都不知道你們家的地址。
can用在肯定句中也有表示推測(cè)的意義,但表示理論上存在的可能性,翻譯成“有時(shí)可能”(但很少發(fā)生),如:Even experienced teachers can make mistakes.
