单词辨析
1)po
ssible指客观上有可能性,但往往含有希望很小的意思。probable比pos- sible可能性大,表示“很可能”,指有实际依据或逻辑上合情合理。likely是从外表迹象进行判断,有可能发生的事。如:
It is possible,though not probable,that he will come tomorrow.他明天可能来,但也不一定准来。
It isn't likely to rain.天不像要下雨。

2)
possible不能用人作主语,常用It is possible to do sth.;It is possible for sb.to do sth.;It is possible that...等结构。如:
It is possible for me to do it.我可能做那件事。

3)
probable不能用人作主语,表示某人
可能做某事用It is probable that sb....结构。如:
It is probable that he will come tonight.很可能他今晚要来。

4)
likely既可以用人也可以用物作主语,还可以用It is likely that...结构替换。如:
He is likely to come.=It is likely that he will come.
