must, have to和needn’t
must, have to和needn’t三個(gè)詞都表示必要性。Must是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞，而have to是普通動(dòng)詞，二者在肯定句中一般可互換，表示不可逃避的義務(wù)或責(zé)任。Must更帶有說(shuō)話人的主觀色彩，而have to則更強(qiáng)調(diào)客觀要求和外界影響。must一般只能表達(dá)現(xiàn)在的必要性，而have to則可以表達(dá)過(guò)去或?qū)?lái)的必要性。

如果用must來(lái)提問(wèn)，則只能用其needn’t來(lái)表達(dá)否定的回答。needn’t還可以理解為have to的否定的回答。needn’t（don’t need to）和don’t have to都表示不必要；而mustn’t卻表示絕對(duì)禁止，在說(shuō)話人看來(lái)根本沒(méi)有選擇余地。
