could可用于表示某事有可能发生或可能是事实。
3）may, might 意思是“可能”、“也许”，语气没有must肯定。might表示的可能性更小。否定句中表示“可能不”，不用于疑问句。

表推测情态动词+be doing 表示对正在发生的动作的推测

I don’t know why she didn’t call me yesterday. Can (Could) she have forgotten my telephone number？?我不知道昨天她为什么没给我打电话，难道她会把我的电话号码忘了吗？?
Put?on?more?clothes.?You?must?be?feeling?cold?with?only?a?shirt?on.???
多穿点儿衣服，你只穿一件衬衣，肯定觉得冷。
3. 在反意疑问句中，当陈述部分含有表示推测意义的must和can’t等时，疑问部分的助动词应与情态动词后的动词在非推测情况下的用法保持一致。
　 He must be a worker, isn’t he? 他准是个工人，是吗？（现在）
He must have rained last night, didn’t it? 昨晚一定下雨了，是不是？（过去）
