情态动词should的用法，急求

Answer 1

1. Should表示劝告、建议、命令，其同义词是ought to；在疑问句中，通常用should代替ought to。如： You should go to class right away. Should I open the window? Should的含义较多，用法较活，现介绍三种其特殊用法。请看下面的句子： ① I should think it would be better to try it again. 我倒是认为最好再试一试。 ② You are mistaken, I should say. 依我看，你是搞错了。 ③ I should advise you not to do that. 我倒是劝你别这样做。 ④ This is something I should have liked to ask you. 这是我本来想问你的。 从以上例句可以看出：情态动词should用于第一人称时可以表示说话人的一种谦逊、客气、委婉的语气。 Should还可以用在if引导的条件从句，表示一件事听起来可能性很小，但也不是完全没有可能。相当于“万一”的意思。从句谓语由should加动词原形构成，主句谓语却不一定用虚拟语气。如： ⑤ Ask her to ring me up if you should see her. 你万一见到她，请让她给我打个电话。 ⑥ If you should change your mind, please let us know. 万一你改变主意，请通知我们。 ⑦ Should I (If I should) be free tomorrow I will come. 万一我明天有时间，我就来。 此外，Why(or How) + should结构表示说话人对某事不能理解，感到意外、惊异等意思。意为“竟会”。如： ⑧ Why should you be so late today? 你几天怎么来得这么晚？ ⑨ — Where is Betty living? — 贝蒂住在哪里？ — How should I know? — 我怎么会知道呢？ ⑩ I don't know why you should think that I did it. 我真不知道你凭什么认为这件事是我干的。 2. “should + have + 过去分词”结构一般表示义务，表示应该做到而实际上没有做到，并包含一种埋怨、责备的口气。如： She should have finished it. I should have helped her, but I never could. You should have started earlier.
