參考答案:
基本語法
情態(tài)動(dòng)詞could委婉地表請(qǐng)求和征詢?cè)S可
其句型為:Could you please do sth?
—Peter, could you please take out the trash?
彼德,請(qǐng)你把垃圾倒掉好嗎?
—Sure, Mom.
可以,媽媽。
—Could you please do the dishes?
請(qǐng)把盤子洗了,好嗎?
—Sorry, I can’t.
抱歉,我不能。
在表示請(qǐng)求幫助或請(qǐng)求允許的疑問句中,常用could代替can,以表示禮貌,委婉或不確定的語氣,而can則不具備這些語氣。這種情況下不能把could看作can的過去式。could是為了表示禮貌的請(qǐng)求。
肯定回答時(shí)要用Yes, I can.
注意:不能用could。除此之外,肯定回答還可以用Sure. / Certainly. / Yes, sure. / Of course. / That’s OK. / No problem. / With pleasure.等;
否定回答用I’m sorry, I can’t. / I’m sorry, but I have to..., 還可以用I’m afraid not.
—Could you please sweep the floor?
—Yes, sure.
—Could you please water the flowers?
—No problem.
