（三）几组词的辨异

　　1. can 和be able to

　　1）情态动词can只有两种时态形式，现在式can和过去式could，而be able to有多种时态形式。

　　Mary can play the piano. She has been able to play it since she was 5.

　　玛丽会弹钢琴。她五岁起就会弹了。

　　2）用在过去时中，could经常表示能够做某事，事实上不一定去做，而was∕were able to则表示“过去做成了某事”。在否定句中两者可通用。

　　He could swim across the English Channel. But he didn't feel like it that day.

　　他能游过英吉利海峡，但那天他不想游。

　　Yesterday I was able to get home before the heavy rain. 昨天我在下大雨前赶到了家里。

　　2. must和 have to

　　must表示主观意志，而have to表示由于客观因素不得不做某事。must没有过去式，除在间接引语中可用于表示过去时间，在直接引语中表示过去时间应该用had to代替。

　　I told her that she must give up smoking. 我叫她必须戒烟。

　　We had to get everything ready that night. 我们那晚得把一切准备就绪。

　　3. would和used to

　　1）used to表示过去与现在或过去某时与后来的情况有不同，而would只表过去的情况。

　　过去人们认为地球是平的。（现在人们不这么认为。）

　　She would go out for a walk in the morning when she was in the country.

　　在乡下时，她总是在早晨去散会儿步。（可能现在仍有散步的习惯。）

　　2）used to可表示过去的习惯动作和经常的情况，而would只表示过去的习惯动作。
