情态动词的作用:情态动词表示说话
人对动作的态度,如需要,可能,意愿,或
怀疑等.情态动词本身有一定的意义,但
不完全,不能单独做谓语,必须与不带to
的动词不定式(ought除外)连用.它无人
称和数的变化.
(1)can, could和be able to
当表示现在,将来以及泛指过去的能力,三者可以互换使用:
As a child, he could play the violin fairly well.
= As a child, he can play the violin fairly well.
=As a child, he is able to play the violin fairly well.
 Can (could)和 be able to 的异同.
共同点: 在表能力方面,三者是相同的.由于can 只有过去式 could,
所以在其他时态中,需要用 be able to 来适应相关的变化形式.

I have been able to write long passages in English.
(我已能用英语写大段文章了.)
She could (was able to) speak a little English. (当时她会说一点儿
英语.)
不同点:(1).表能力时,can (could)表示自然的,一般的能力,be
able to 表示经过一定努力,或借助一定手段的能力.在同一语境中既
有又有时,这种实际意义的差别更为明显.
At the beginning he couldn’ t answer the question. But after thinking
over and doing some experiments, he was able to answer them
correctly.
(2).can(could)可用来表示可能性,请求,许可和推测, be able to 只用
来表能力.
Can (May) I use your dictionary?
注意事项:can( could) 和be able to不能叠用,而be able to 可和其他情
(2)may 和might :may的过去式是 might,表示允许和征
询对方许可,意谓“可以”,表示可能性,might 语气更委
婉.

-Yes, of course.

Might I give you some advice?
注意:在表推测或可能的估计时,must>may> might
