likely,probable,possible的区别问题··

1个回答

  • 请看likely的用法:

    a.

    1.很可能的[+to-v][+that]

    John is likely to be in London this autumn.

    今年秋天约翰可能在伦敦.

    2.适当的,正合要求的[(+for)]

    The park is a likely place for the picnic.

    这公园倒是个适合野餐的地方.

    possible,probable的区别

    这两个词的反义词是impossible,improbable

    1)possible作“或许”解,有“也许如此,也许不如此”之意.强调客观上有可能性,但常常带有“实际可能性很小”的暗示.

    2)probable用来指有根据,合情理,值得相信的事物,带有“大概,很可能”的意味.语气比possible要重,是most likely之意.

    It’s possible,though not probable.That he will accept the terms.他也可能接受这些条件,但希望不大.

    (2) be possible,be probable常用形式主语it,构成句型为:

    It is possible/probable + that …(从句)

    It is possible /probable+ for sb.to do sth.例如:

    他有可能做这件事.

    [√] It is possible for him to do this.

    [√] It is possible that he will do this.

    [×] He is possible to do this.
