二、情态动词表示推测的考查
对情态动词表示推测的用法,是高考考查情态动词的一个重要方面。例如:

9.Tom graduated from college at a very young age.

A. could B. should C. mightD. must

分析:高考对表示推测的情态动词集中在must, can, could, may, might上,准确掌握它们使用的场合,是解决问题的关键。Must 用于肯定陈述句,表示肯定推测;can, could用于疑问或否定陈述句,表示可能性推测;may, might用于陈述句,表示可能性推测;用于否定陈述句中,can’t (不可能)的语气比may not(可能不)强。此外,还要注意有对过去和对现在两种情况的推测,对过去推测用情态动词+have done ,对现在推测用情态动词+ 动词原形。
三、情态动词表示虚拟的考查
情态动词+have+过去分词表示与过去事实上相反的情况,也是高考单项选择题涉及到情态动词的一个重要方面。
1. There was a lot of fun at yesterday’s party. You______come, but why didn’t you?(1999年上海, 14)
A. must have B. should
C. need have D. ought to have
解析:ought to have done 表示本来应该做某事而实际没做,should do 表示现在应该做某事,与题中 at yesterday’s party 表示的时间不一致。所以选D。
2.I was really anxious about you. You______home without a word.(NMET2001,33)
A. mustn’t leaveB. shouldn’t have left
C. couldn’t have leftD. needn’t leave
解析:shouldn’t have done 表示本来不应该做而实际上做了。句意为:你不应该不说一句话就离开家,而实际上是没说一句话就离开家了。答案是:B。
3.Oh, I’m not feeling well in the stomach. I______so much fried chicken just now.(2002年春季上海,28)
A. shouldn’t eat B. mustn’t have eaten
C. shouldn’t have eaten D. mustn’t eat

4.I’ll tell Mary about her new job tomorrow.
—You______her last week.(NMET2004年福建,32)
A. ought to tell B. would have told
C. must tellD. should have told
解析:根据句意你本应该上周告诉她,而实际上你明天才告诉,有埋怨之意.应用should have told.答案为D。
5.Mr White______at 8:30 for the meeting ,but he didn’t show up. (NMET2004年全国卷I,27)
A. should have arrived B. should arrive
C. should have had arrivedC. should be arriving
解析:据提供的语境but he didn’t show up说明他本来应该在8:30来开会,而实际上没来,可判断用should have arrived .答案是:A。
分析:高考对情态动词表示虚拟的用法,表示与过去事实相反的情况。近几年高考,主要侧重should (not)have done 这一句式上,表示本来不该做却做了或本来该做却未做的事,在复习时,还应关注其它几种虚拟形式,如need (not)have done 表示本来需要做而未做或本来不需要而做的事等等,以做到有备无患。
高考命题趋向:近十年高考试题,对情态动词的考查涉及到基本含义、表示推测、表示虚拟这三个方面,考查的比较全面,突出的一点是重视在具体语境下的灵活使用。情态动词和助动词都帮助实义动词构成谓语,近两年又趋向于情态动词与助动词混合考查,增大了此类试题的难度,这一点应引起广大考生注意。例如:
1.Tom ,you didn’t come to the party last night?
—I______, but I suddenly remembered I had homework to do .(NMET2007全国卷II,20)
A. had to B. didn’tC. was going to D. wouldn’t
解析:had to:不得不;didn’t:没来;was going to:打算来;wouldn’t:不愿来。句意:——汤姆,昨晚你没来参加舞会吗?——我本打算来,但我突然记起有作业要做。But是关键词,所以答案是:C。
2.Your phone number again? I______quite catch it .
—It’s86184867.
A. didn’t B. couldn’t C. don’t D. can’t
解析:记住电话号码并非难事,未完全听清楚电话号码并非能力的事,此处只是说没有完全听清楚电话号码,所以,应选A。
