用法讲解
aux. (助动词)
- ought常接不定式符号to,用作情态动词表示责任或义务时作“应该”解,表示劝告或推荐时作“应当”解,表示推论时作“可能会”解,但都不及must语气强烈。其否定形式为ought not to,也可缩写成oughtn't to。
- 在美式英语中, ought to在否定句或疑问句中可省去to。
- 在间接引语中,表示过去时ought to形式不变; ought to与完成时连用时多数情况下表示与过去事实相反的情况,含意为“更早的时间应该如何”; ought to还可表示将来的情况,但前面不能加will。
- ought to表示推论时在大多数情况下没有must肯定,但某些场合也含有很大的可能性。
aux. (助动词)
- ought to, should
-
- 二者都有“应该,应当”的意思。用ought to语气更严峻一些,多指按道义、法律、身体情况应当如何,具有一定的针对性; should更亲切一些,表示讲话人的关心,为了避免使对方感到不自在,常可用should代替ought to。
- ought to 应当
- Caesar's wife ought to be above suspicion. 凯撒之妻不应该被人怀...
- no better than one ought to be 行为不规矩
