● must have done sth. 表示对过去事情的肯定推测
【原句再现】You must have had some moments when you were disappointed.
must 表“推测”时只用于肯定句中,语气较强,常作 “一定,肯定”之意, 既可对
现在情况推测,也可对过去情况推测。
① must do…表示对现在情况推测。
② must have done…表示对过去情况推测. 例如:
【精品例句】
a. You must be very thirsty after thirty minutes’ walk. (对现在情况推测)
b. They must have arrived by air yesterday afternoon.(对过去情况推测)
c. Your mother must be doing housework now. (对现在情况推测)
d. It must have rained here last night. (对过去情况推测)
轻轻告诉你:表肯定推测也可用 may/might, 但语气比 must 弱,常表示“可能”,
如:
a. He may have gone swimming yesterday afternoon. 昨天下午他可能去游泳了
b. Today is Saturday . He may be at home. 几天是周六,他可能在家吧
