情态动词的意义及构成:
情态动词用来表达说话人的语气和态度,如命令、劝告、建议等。
情态动词有以下两个特点:1. 本身有一定的意义,但不能独立作谓语,只能和主要动词一起构成谓语。2. 没有人称和数的变化(have to 除外),后面只能接动词原形。
you needn't be so rude about it
need 是情态动词 be是系动词 ,这句话是主系表结构,情态动词后面要加一个动词,因为情态动词不能单独作谓语.英语中有两个need,一个是你、普通动词,另一个是情态动词。
need和can,may 等情态动词,只用于否定和疑问句,肯定句用must, have to、ought to或should
