在雅思口語(yǔ)中和考官交流其實(shí)可以避免一些問(wèn)題的產(chǎn)生,比如告別絕對(duì)性的說(shuō)yes 或者no.雅思口語(yǔ)中可以說(shuō)一些有余地的詞匯給自己留下更多回旋的可能。今天小編就為大家分享關(guān)于那些表示可能的詞匯用法。希望備考雅思口語(yǔ)的同學(xué)能夠用上。
四個(gè)基礎(chǔ)詞匯"maybe", "perhaps", "possibly","probably"
可能性程度其中的"probably"表示可能性比較大:50%以上;"Possibly"表示可能性為50%以下;
"Maybe"和"perhaps"則表示正反可能性不相上下,對(duì)半分。
使用場(chǎng)合"Maybe"的使用比較隨性,比如:A: Are you going to Jane's party?
簡(jiǎn)的聚會(huì)你會(huì)去嗎?B: Maybe. You?
也許吧。你去嗎?"Perhaps"則更正式一點(diǎn),比如:A: Would it be possible to change my seat number?
可以給我換個(gè)座位號(hào)嗎?B: Perhaps. Please hold while I check.
也許可以。請(qǐng)稍等,我查一下。
具體運(yùn)用➀ 回答一般疑問(wèn)句時(shí)使用:A: Do you think you'll get a chance to visit your cousin Mary while you're in town?
你進(jìn)城時(shí)能順便看一下你瑪麗表姐嗎?B: Maybe. It depends on how busy I end up being with work stuff.
再說(shuō)吧。看我到時(shí)候的工作完成情況吧。
➁ 用在不定冠詞("a", "an")和定冠詞("the")前:That's probably a bad decision.
那大概率是個(gè)不怎么樣的決定。This is possibly the worst meal I've ever had.
這頓飯可能是我吃過(guò)的最差的一次。I'm maybe an inch taller than him.
我可能比他高一英寸吧。
➂ 用在情態(tài)動(dòng)詞和be動(dòng)詞之間("could be", "might be", "may be", "should be"):This could possibly be the last time we ever see each other.
這可能是我倆此生最后一次見(jiàn)面了。We should probably be thankful that it didn't turn out worse.
也許我們?cè)摳卸魇虑闆](méi)有向更糟的方向發(fā)展。
與上面四個(gè)詞偏口語(yǔ)不同,下面這幾個(gè)詞組偏書面。
➀ Weather permitting 如果天氣狀況允許的話
Weather permitting, we will be there on time.
天氣狀況允許的話,我們會(huì)按時(shí)到那兒。The plane lands at midnight, weather permitting.
天氣狀況允許的話,飛機(jī)會(huì)在午夜抵達(dá)。
➁ It is possible that 有可能……It is possible that you might feel some discomfort after the checkup.
體檢之后你可能會(huì)有點(diǎn)不適。
➂ Depending on circumstances 視情況而定Honda will resume production in stages, depending on the ongoing circumstances.
