用惯了“possible(实际可能性很小,与副词perhaps同义)”,“probable(相当于most likely )很有可能”这些形容词,副词。英语中的很有可能还可以是这样子表达的
【句型一】、May well 很有理由;大可(=have good reason to );很有可能(be likely to)may well 就是may的加强语气
It may well be true.那可能是真的
You may well be surprised你可能会很惊讶
He may well be over eighty.他可能有80度岁了
【句型二】、May as well最好(=had better),不妨
We may as well stay here.我们最好待在这里。
这些云里雾里的你搞定了吗?
再怎么夸你都不过分
再怎么骂你都不过分
哈哈哈
你还可以这样表示强烈的肯定意义
【句型三】:Can(not/never)+动词原形+too+形容词/副词。再怎么……也不过分;应尽量……;越……越好
We can never be too careful我们要非常非常小心。
We cannot be too faithful to our duties.我们无论怎么忠于职务也不为过。
You cannot be too careful in the choice of your friends.你在择友方面再怎么小心也不为过。
We cannot admire her beauty too much我们怎么赞美她的美丽都不为过。
[注]在“cannot… too…”结构中的too可换成enough(这时enough放形容词/副词后不要忘记哦,为)【句型四】cannot +动词+形容词或副词+enough;not也可换成never, hardly等否定词。如:
Drinking water can never be pure enough.
饮用水越纯越好。
You can never be strong enough.
强壮的身体有百利无一害。
再如cannot+动词+too much (much enough)。如:
We cannot praise him too much.
我们无论怎样表扬他也不算过分。
He is very reliable. You can’t trust him too much (much enough).
他很可靠,他是你最值得信赖的人。
cannot +动词+too many +可数名词(或too much +不可数名词)。如:
I think it right that one cannot learn too much knowledge.
我认为一个人的知识越多越好。
It is wrong to think that one cannot bear too many children.
认为一个人生的孩子愈多愈好是错误的。
