—Excuse me, Mr. Brown. ______ you speak Chinese?
—Yes, butt only a little.
A.ShallB.MustC.MayD.Can
D

试题分析:考察情态动词用法。本句指的情态动词can表示具有某种能力。句意:对不起,布朗先生,你能讲汉语吗?—是的,不过只有一点点。Shall通常表示允诺,强制,命令等;must必须;may也许。故D正确。
点评:情态动词是一种本身有一定的词义,表示说话人的情绪,态度或语气的动词,但不能单独作谓语, 只能和其他动词原形构成谓语。can (could) 表示说话人能,可以,同意,准许,以及客观条件许可;will, would用于疑问句表示说话人向对方提出请求或询问,用 would 比 will 更婉转,客气。Shall表示命令,警告,允诺,征求,劝告,建议惊奇。
