KATE: Conrad Reeves, the actor?It's can't be.
Let me have another look. I think you're right! Isn't he her third husband?
LIZ: No. He must be her fourth or fifth. KATE: Doesn't Karen Marsh look old!
LIZ: She does, doesn't she! I read she's twenty-nine, but she must be at least forty.
KATE: I'm sure she is.
LIZ: She was a famous actress when I was still at school. KATE: That was a long time ago, wasn't it?
LIZ: Not that long ago! I'm not more than twenty-nine myself.

莉兹:是的,谁说不是呢!我从报上看到她是29岁,但她一定至少有40岁了。 凯特:我肯定她有40岁了。

must,can't 都可以表示猜测。
must 表示肯定的猜测,用于肯定句,表示“一定是..”,非常肯定的语气.(注意:表猜测时,must不能用语疑问句)
can't 表示否定的猜测,用于否定句,或否定的回答,表示“不可能是...” A:This lady must be 40 years old.
B:She can't be 40 years old. Look at her face, there's not any wrinkles at all. 2. 反义疑问句
反义疑问句,即附加疑问句。它表示提问人的看法,没有把握,需要对方证实。
反义疑问句由两部分组成:前一部分是一个陈述句,后一部分是一个简短的疑问句。 (注意:后一部分的简短疑问句,由“助动词+主语”构成。两部分的人称时态应保持一致。)
1.陈述部分肯定式+疑问部分否定式 可记为 前肯后否 They work hard, don’t they? 2.陈述部分否定式+疑问部分肯定式 可记为 前否后肯 They don't work hard, do they? 反义疑问句的回答:
1. 当陈述部分为肯定式,反意疑问句为否定式时,回答只需照情况即可。 \’s new, isn’t it?\“是新的,对吗?” \“对,是新的。” \不,不是新的。”
2. 当陈述部分为否定式,反意疑问句为肯定式时,其回答往往与汉语不一致,需特别引起注意:
\“不是新的,对吗?” “Yes, it is.\“不,是新的。” \“是的,不是新的。”
(tips:回答否定式的反意疑问句,yes跟肯定,No接否定的规则还是不变的。翻译回答部分的时候,只需要把翻译疑问句中省略的部分重现在回答中,就可以正确地翻译出来。) 如:He doesn't love her,does he? 他不爱她,是吗?
Yes,he does.=Yes, he does (love her) 在翻译的时候,不用去管yes,只需要翻译后部分,他爱她。所以整个回答就应该是,“不,他爱她。”
No, he doesn't= No, he doesn't (love her) 翻译时,先后半部分,他不爱她。之后再结合句子来把yes跟no的具体含义,分析清楚。
