同义词追问用法上有区别吗
追答1. likely常用于以下两种结构中：
1) sb/sth. is likely to do sth.
he is likely to come.他可能要来。
it isn’t likely to rain.不大像要下雨。
2) it is likely + that clause :
it is likely that he will succeed. 他有可能成功。
2. possible 常用于以下结构中：
it is possible (for sb.) to do sth.
it is possible for the train to be late.
it is possible that…
it is possible that the train is late. 火车有可能晚点。
3. probable用法：同样不用人做主语。只用于下列句型：
it’s probable that clause…
it is probable that it will rain today. bring your umbrella with you. 今天极有可能要下雨。带上雨伞吧。
注意：possible,与probable都一般不用人做主语。
例如：我们可以说：
it is possible for him to lend us the car.
it is possible /probable that he will lend us the car.
但是我们不说：
he is possible / probable to lend us the car.

她很可能赢.
It is likely that she will win.
It is possible that she will come to visit our school next week.

ikely强调“表面上看起来很可能”; 而probable则强调“权衡理由后相信会发生”，虽无法确定，但却极有可能发生; possible的发生的可能性极小。likely介于probable和possible之间。likely用作形容词，用于以下结构：1）主语+be+likely+不定式。如：Their team isn't likely to win.他们队不大可能赢。2）It is + likely +that从句。如：It's very likely that she'll ring me tonight.很可能她今晚给我打电话。注意对话: “He said you'd be giving them a lift.” “Not likely!” ▲译: 他们可能会对我们生气。追问好详细！感谢！
