语法小结 Grammar
情态动词can和be able to, may
1.情态动词can 和be able to
can 和be able to 都可以表示有某种能力，但can只能用于现在时和过去时（could）,而be able to 可以用于任何时态。
I can do this job. 我能做这个工作。
I will be able to do this job soon. 我很快就能做这个工作。
如果表示“成功地做了谋事”时，只能用was/were able to，例如：
He was able to flee the country before the war broke out. 在战争爆发之前，他成功地逃离了这个国家。
2.情态动词may
may 表示允许或请求，和没有把握的推测。当may放在句首，表示祝愿。
May God bless you! 上帝保佑你！
He might be at home. 他可能在家里。
might 是may的过去时，但在表示推测时，不表示过去的时态，只是might表示的可能性比may小。
Might I use your pen? 我能用你的笔吗？
