(2011·湖南卷28) A. can B. need C. must D. might 【解析】选A。can强调能力，是“能，会”的意思。句意：在打篮球方面没有人能与姚明相比。你真是他的铁杆粉丝。 2. — I dont really like James. Why did you invite him? — Dont worry. He ______ come. He said he wasnt certain what his plans were. (2011·北京卷24) A. must not B. need not C. would not D. might not 【解析】选D。根据句意，James可能不会来的。因为他自己不确信他的计划是什么。might not 表可能性，“可能不”。 情态动词 考点1. could与was/were able to的区别 Although the fire in the hotel was very big, they ______ escape from it.
