【设计意图】
利用初步小练习,让学生观察规律特点,后面的思考匹配环节,引导学生得出相应结论,为情态动词的学习奠定基础。
3. (5m)情态动词+have+过去分词
情态动词must, can / could, may / might均可表示推测,它们可以对过去、现在或将来的情况作出语气强弱不同的推测。对过去的情况进行推测时,用“情态动词+ have +过去分词”。
?1).表示肯定的推测时,语气从弱到强的情态动词依次为:might?→?may?→?could→?can?→?must;表示否定的推测时,may not / might not语气较弱,can’t / couldn’t语气较强。
注意:must的否定形式mustn’t不表示否定推测,而是表示“不得”或“一定不要”。
2).?情态动词表示推测时,在用法上有一些限制:
① must只用于肯定句中,意为“一定,准是”。
② can多用于否定句和疑问句中。
③ may / might用于肯定句和否定句中。
3).?对过去的情况进行推测时,用“情态动词+ have +过去分词”。如:
I didn’t see Alex. He might have gone home.
I couldn’t have left my bag on the bus.
They must have gotten lost or they’d be here by now.
【拓展】
在特定的语境中, “might / could + have +过去分词”不是对一件事情是否发生进行推测, 而是表示本来可能发生但没有发生, 或者本来可能完成却没有完成的动作, 有时具有一定的感彩。
① might have done本可以做(却没有), 有时表示很委婉的责备。如:
Honestly, the report might have been better written.
② could have done本可能做(却没有)。如:
He did not regret saying what he did but felt that he could have expressed it differently.
【设计意图】
总结情态动词的不同用法,比较总结,给出例句和拓展加深理解,符合老师引导,学生探究思考的教学模式。
