No, you can’t.You have a basketball game tomorrow.
Can you please take the dog for a walk
OK, but I want to watch one show first.
Can you please take out the rubbish
Yes, sure.
can表示“能够”时与短语be able to同义,但can只用于一般现在时或过去时,而后者可用于各种时态。另外,can表示个人有某种能力,而be able to表示某人通过努力、克服困难做成某事,相当于succeed in doing sth.;叙述过去事实时,最好用was / were able to,因为could只表示过去具有某种能力。
