Key structures 关键句型

 

Must

情态动词must常常用来表示不可逃避的义务,这种义务在说话人看来是没有选择余地的。另外,还可以用have to或have got to来代替 must。这3种形式就它们所表达的意义而言,一般可以互换。而 have to这个短语可以与更多的时态连用。

Study these sentences:

仔细阅读以下句子:

a  Instead of saying:

We can say:

除了这种表述方法外:

b  We cannot use must in this sentence.

在下列句子中我们不能用 must, 也就是说,在过去时的句子中,要用had to来表示“必须”。

Instead of saying:  We can say:

除了这种表述方法外:      还可以说:

I, personally, think he is a fool.             He must be a fool.

I, personally, think he is mad.               He must be mad.
