推测的单词

语法梳理:王兴刚老师
适合人群:英语教师、英语专业学生、初高中生等


01




情态动词表示推测的要点:
1. 推测包括肯定的推测和否定的推测,并不是指结果一定会发生,而是侧重说话人内心的坚定信念。比如某人坚信XXX不在房间里,虽然事实是XXX在房间里,但某人心中坚定认为XXX就是不在房间里。
2. 推测的程度有重有轻。十分坚定(我没有用肯定,以免混淆)的推测用must或can’t,不是十分坚定的推测用may或may not,甚至might.

解析:表示肯定的推测用must。本句中是must have passed是对过去发生事情的肯定推测(翻译成肯定是已经通过了)。如果是must pass就是对现在的推测(翻译成肯定通过,没有那种完成的感觉)。就通过考试这个表达来说,一定是must have passed才符合语境。
