语法学习 Grammar in use
must, have to 和 needn't
这3个词都表示必要性。在前面已对 must和 have to介绍过。
must是情态助动词,而have to是普通动词,二者在肯定句中一般可以互换,表示不可逃避的义务或责任。must更带有说话人的主观色彩,而have to则更强调客观要求和外界影响。
must一般只能表达现在的必要性,而have to则可以表达过去或将来的必要性。
I shall have to leave London tomorrow.
我明早得离开伦敦。
I had to stop smoking because it was forbidden in my company.
因为我所在的公司内禁止抽烟,所以我不得不停止了吸烟。
如果我们用 must来提问,则只能用needn't来表达否定的回答。 needn't 还可以理解为have to的否定回答。needn't (don't need to)和 don't have to都表示不必要;而 mustn't却表示绝对禁止,在说话人看来根本没有选择余地。请看例句:
You mustn't turn left.
你不能左转弯。(表示绝对禁止)
