could還可以表示禮貌的請(qǐng)求幫助或請(qǐng)求允許,此時(shí)could不是can的過(guò)去式,而是表示更加禮貌委婉的請(qǐng)求,在回答允許時(shí),一般不用could而用can?！狢ouldIaskyouaquestion?我可以問(wèn)你一個(gè)問(wèn)題嗎？—Yes,ofcourseyoucan.當(dāng)然能。WorkitoutcouldCouldcouldn’t1.He_______playthekeyboardwhenhewassix.2.Hecouldn’tplaythepiano.3._______heplaytheviolin?Yes,hecould.4.—Couldheplaytheguitar?—No,he_________.playedthecomputergames,fourHecouldplay
