情态动词表推测用法总结及专项练习1.can / could用于表推测的用法(1) 从使用句型上看，can 通常只用于否定句或疑问句，一般不用于肯定句，而could 可用于肯定句、否定句和疑问句。

两者没有时间上的差别，只是could 比can 更委婉，更不确定。

如：It can’t [couldn’t] be true. 那不可能是真的。

What can [could] they be doing? 他们会在干什么呢?We could go there this summer. 今年夏天我们可能要去那儿。

注：can 有时也用于肯定句中表示推测，主要用于表示理论上的可能性(即从理论上看是可能的，但实际未必会发生)，或表示“有时”之意。

如：Even experienced teachers can make mistakes. 即使是有经验的教师也可能出错。

She can be very unpleasant. 她有时很令人讨厌。

(2) 从时间关系看，对现在或将来情况作推测，后接动词原形；对正在进行的情况作推测，后接be doing 结构；对过去情况作推测，后接动词完成式。

如：He could have gone home. 他可能已经回家了。

He can’t [couldn’t] have understood. 他不可能理解了。

Why does he know this? Can [Could] someone have told him about it? 他怎么知道? 会是哪个人告诉他了吗?(3) “could+完成式”除表示对过去的推测外，还有以下重要用法：①表示过去没有实现的可能性，常译为“本来可以”。

如：I could have lent you the money．Why didn’t you ask me? 我本来可以借这笔钱给你的。

你为什么不向我提出?②用来委婉地责备某人过去应该做某事而没有去做，常译为“本来应该”。

When we are happy, we are more responsive to people and keep up 44 better than when we are feeling sad．This doesn’t mean, however, that some people are born to be sad and that’s that．Unhappiness may be related to genes, but this inherited trait can be influenced by 45 choice．You can increase your happiness through your own actions.In a whole 46 of experiments by psychologists John Reich and Alex Zautra at Arizona State University, they asked students to select their favourite activities from a list of everyday pleasures－things like going to a movie, talking with friends and playing cards.Then the researchers 47 some of the students in the experiment to increase the number of favourite activities the participated in for one month (the participants in the study 48 as controls (对照组) and did not vary their activity level)．Result: Those who did more of the things they enjoyed were happier than those who didn’t．The conclusion, then, is that the pleasure we get from life is 49 ours to control.III．Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D．Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Is there a job for you after college? What does the world of work keep in store for you? That 50 in large measure on who you are.If you’ve enjoyed your studies in English and history, 50 , you’ll be glad to know that in a recent survey by Hobart and William Smith Colleges in New York State, a majority of CEOs said that the liberal arts (文科) are essential for 52 critical thinking and problem-solving skills．If you thought college was for acquiring specific work skills, only 37 percent of the CEOs in the survey agree with you.If you plan to start your career as a secretary, be aware that this job is undergoing tremendous 53 ．In offices where secretaries have not already been eliminated, the54 role of a clerk is now unrecognizable．Most bosses 55 their own mails and meetings and travel plans, thanks to e-mail and the Internet, so secretaries are 56 taking on higher-level tasks such as drafting contracts and handling customer service problems．Those willing to expand their 57 should do well.If you are a woman interested in law enforcement (执法), note that some states and citiesare working hard to reach 58 standards for female applicants．Although most small suburban police departments are deeply traditional, and some are 59 even to employ woman, among the nation’s largest forces about 15 percent of the officers are female, five times as many as a generation ago.Degrees in sports management are also 60 ．Two hundred U.S colleges and universities, 10 times as many in 1985, now 61 undergraduate courses in sports management, and some have advanced degree programs．At some school you can also combine an MBA in sports management with a law degree.62 , if you’ve set your sights on a traditional MBA, take heart．MBA recruitment (招聘) is way up, and salaries are 63 ．But money isn’t all today’s MBAs are looking for．A recent study of nearly 1,800 MBA students in the United States and Canada found that 68 percent 64 the statement, “My family will always be more important than my career.”50．A．concentrates B．depends C．takes D．passes51．A．by comparison B．as a result C．for instance D．in return 52．A．developing B．discouraging C．confirming D．appreciating 53．A．troubles B．pains C．tests D．changes 54．A．active B．small C．useful D．traditional 55．A．await B．handle C．transfer D．classify 56．A．increasingly B．unwillingly C．diligently D．intentionally 57．A．horizons B．activities C．organizations D．operations 58．A．medium B．high C．fair D．legal 59．A．keen B．resolved C．reluctant D．qualified 60．A．on display B．at an end C．at rest D．on the rise 61．A．cancel B．offer C．register D．drop 62．A．Contrarily B．Consequently C．Finally D．Strictly 63．A．competitive B．moderate C．fixed D．regular 64．A．give out B．agree with C．wonder about D．focus onSection BDirections: Read the following three passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)They like using the Internet．They have lots of pocket money to spend．And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us．Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy－games, CDs and clothing－are easily sold on the Web.But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards．Most have to use a parent’s card．They want a facility that allows them to spend money.That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic．If successful, these products can stimulate online sales.In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and ￡20bn annually in the UK．Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school－88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK．According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those withInternet access has bought something online－mainly CDs and books.In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children．Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street．They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online.One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as InternetCash in the US and Smart cards in the UK．Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as￡20 or $50 with a concealed 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.65．What does the word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to?A．Sellers. B．Buyers. C．Teenagers. D．Parents. 66．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A．More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access．B．Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.C．Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.D．Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.67．A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use ______.A．a new machine B．special coins and notesC．prepaid cards D．pay-as-you-go mobile phones68．What is the passage mainly about?A．Online shopping traps. B．Internet users in the US and the UK.C．New credit cards for parents. D．The arrival of cyber pocket money.69．This passage is most probably ______.A．an advertisement for enrolling new employeesB．a school report at the end of an academic yearC．a self-introduction meant to apply for a jobD．a part of a recommendation letter from a university70．According to the “Experience” section, we can infer that Donald Sloan can be _____.A．a wise leader B．a skillful performerC．a gifted scientist D．a good social worker71．From the passage we can learn that Donald Sloan ______.A．is good at singing and dancing B．is about to graduate from a universityC．has an interest in being a surgeon D．specializes in psychology(C)Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets．But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”－events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”Mr．Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives．The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities changed over the years?”Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain．Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another．“We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says．“But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer．The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adultsto seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom with for hours．But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up．“What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”Some said they felt “liberated” to talk on sensitive topics．Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”72．What can the “conversations” be best described as?A．Deep and one-on-one. B．Sensitive and mad.C．Instant and inspiring. D．Ordinary and encouraging.73.。

He was only three when he flooded the kitchen.His mother, Angela Brown, is in despair. She is very busy looking after her new baby, a little girl called Laura, as well as Daniel. She told us, “Daniel is so full of curiosity. ”At that moment, we hear a huge crash and then silence. We go upstairs and find Daniel crawling out of a wardrobe (衣橱) he has pulled over onto the floor, with a book in his hand. “It’s for you Mum, ”he says and looks up at his mum and smiles. Seven-year-old Daniel has a lovely face He has golden hair, big brown eyes, and a friendly smile.

It’s amazing how one little boy can cause so much trouble. Another time he cut off all the hair of the little girl next door. She was going to attend her sister’s wedding and the neighbors haven’t spoken to us since.”Angela told me about Daniel’s most expensive crime.“I was about to do the washing up when the baby started crying. Daniel decided to help and filled the kitchen sink with water. When I came in the water was already flooding the kitchen and was about to flood the hall. The carpet was ruined and had to be replaced.

It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. the mother spoiled the boyB. the boy found school life interestingC. the mother lost hope in the boyD. the boy had no freedom at homeBTransportation and communication networks bring people together. Yet sometimes people themselves create barriers (障碍) to transportation and communication.In some countries, laws stop people from moving freely from place to place. Over the centuries, many groups of people have been denied the freedom to travel because of their race, religion, or nationality. In the Middle Ages, for example, Jews were often forbidden to move about freely within certain cities. South Africa’s government used to require black Africans tocarry passes when they travel within the country. Some governments require all citizens to carry identification papers and to report to government officials whenever they move.Countries set up customs posts at their borders. Foreign travellers must go through a customs inspection before they are allowed to travel in the country. Usually travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visas (签证). Some countries even limit the number of visitors to their country each year. Others allow tourists to visit only certain areas of the country, or they may require that travellers be with an official guide at all times during their stay.Many of those barriers to travel also act as barriers to communication. When two governments disagree with each other on important matters, they usually do not want their citizens to exchange news or ideas freely. Countries often try to keep military or industrial information secret.Today, people have the ability to travel, to communicate, and to transport goods more quickly and easily than ever before. Natural barriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily. The barriers that people themselves make are not so easy to overcome. But in spite of all the different kinds of barriers, people continue to enjoy travel and the exchange of goods and ideas.78. The examples in paragraph 2 are used to tell the readers that _____.A. people have been allowed to travel freely within the countryB. people have not been permitted to travel freely for various reasonsC. travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visasD. customs posts are necessary at the borders of the countries79. Some governments limit the freedom of communication because _____.A. they intend to keep their national secrets unknown to othersB. they think such freedom will lead to warsC. they often disagree with each other on important mattersD. they want to show their authority over communication80. We may learn from the passage that _____.A. people do not care about the removal of barriers between countriesB. people can not remove the obstacles made by themselvesC. man-made barriers are sometimes harder to overcome that natural onesD. barriers should be taken for granted as they always exist81. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A. Barriers Made by PeopleB. Functions of CommunicationC. Restrictions on TransportationD. Progress of Human SocietyCNOBLE SMUGGLERThis Thursday, Irena Sendler will be honoured for her work as a smuggler (偷运者). DuringWorld War Ⅱ, the Polish social worker smuggled nearly 2,500 Jewish children out of the Warsaw ghetto (聚居区). Shegave them new identities, found them safe places withgood-hearted Christians,and kept the children’s real names buried in jars in herneighbors’’ gardens.(The play, Life in a Jar, based on her story,is being performed. )At 93, Sendler lives in a Warsaw nursing home and is too weak to travel to Washington D. C. , to receive the 2003 Jan Karski Award for Valor and Compassion from the American Center of Polish Culture. One of the children she saved will accept the award for her. You risked your life to save the children.I was taught by my father t hat when someone is drowning, you don’t ask if they can swim, you just jump in and help. During the war, everyone was drowning, but mostly the Jewish children.How did you persuade parents to give up their children?I had to answer honestly th at I didn’t even know if we would get past the guards.What was the most frightening moment?When I saw a priest (牧师) in charge of an orphanage for Jewish children in the ghetto walk with them out to be killed. The children were in their best Sunday suits. The priest was killed with them.How did you get the children to behave as you smuggled them out?I told the older children to act as if they were sick and sometimes gave the younger ones a sleeping pill. They were told to remember their new names. I also told the children to tell guards they had only been visiting a servant in the ghetto and were going back to their real homes outside.Did you tell your own two children what you did?I never told them. Only when my daughter went to Israel did she learn all about me . I thought it was only normal to do so. And it was a very painful subject. It was always on my mind that I couldn’t do more.—Samantha Levin82. We can learn from the passage that Irena Sendler _____.A. will go to Washington to accept the award with her daughterB. was caught a few times while she was rescuing the Jewish childrenC. told those parents that their children’s lives would be guaranteedD. saved thousands of Jewish children at the risk of her own life83.

Their appearance is surprising in an industry where all but classic toys like Barbie dolls tend to stay in the market for only a few years before they leave kid culture for good.The return of toys introduced a generation ago, say experts, is largely a generational effect. These toys were among the first to be marketed primarily through TV cartoons. The result: The toys carried with them a much stronger brand identity than toys from previous ages. When those who played with these toys during the 1980s began having children of their own, businessmen realized they could tak e advantage of parents’ emotional ties by bringing the toys back.“We’re starting to see a lot of properties and products coming back now for the kids of Generation X, ”says Greg Livingston, vice president of Wondergroup, a children’s product marketing firm. But other industry observers say this return-of-toy trend is more rooted in basic economics. When the economy isn’t strong, they say , toy-makers become more careful.One of the safest marketing techniques is bringing back toys that are proven successes. “If you’re in the business of making and selling toys, you’re going to go the safest route, which is using proven brands, ”says Stephanie Oppenheimer, co-founder of the Oppenheimer Toy Co. , an independent consumer group that rates toys. Other companies use product ideas that have sold well in other countries, such as Japan. Still, Ms. Oppenheimer also believes that American consumers simply are not in the mood for new, high-tech toys anymore. “People are interested less in wha t we wish we had and more in what we already have, ”says Oppenheimer.“As a country, we’re looking for things that remind us of simpler times.”86. The expression in the first paragraph “what’s old is new again”means that “______”.A. both old and new toys are soldB. old and new toys are of the same priceC. old toys are in fashion againD. old toys have taken on new forms87.

The expression “for good” in the second paragraph can be replaced by______.A. for everB. for the futureC. for the bestD. for all89. The main purpose of the passage is____.A. to introduce the development of kid culture in the past centuryB. to analyze the reappearance of toys popular in the 1980sC. to promote the marketing techniques of toy manufacturersD. to show the impact of high-tech toys on the kids of Generation X四、书面表达 ( 本大题共 1 题, 共计 10 分)Directions：Write an English composition in over 120 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese.简要描述图片，并谈谈你对学生在业余时间参加过多的补习和培训的看法。
