　　Lucy:嘿，Jack!你知道“must”和“should”的區(qū)別嗎?

　　Jack : I think I do. You use these words when you suggest that somebody has to do something.

　　Jack : 我覺得我知道。當你暗示別人不得不做什么事情的時候，你可以用這兩個詞。

　　Lucy : That’s right. You must learn the difference between these two words.

　　Lucy:是，你必須學習這兩個詞的區(qū)別。

　　Jack : You used must instead of should, you could also have said ‘You should learn the difference between these two words’. Right?

　　Jack : 你用了“must”，沒用“should”，你也可以說“你應該學習這兩個詞的區(qū)別”，對嗎?

　　Lucy : That’s right! But learning the difference is very important, that’s why you must know it.

　　Lucy:對!學習他們之間的區(qū)別也很重要，這就是為什么你必須要了解它。

　　Jack : So when something is very important you use must?

　　Jack : 就是說當什么東西非常重要的時候，你要用“must”?

　　Lucy : Correct! When you can’t avoid doing something, or doing it is very important, then you use ‘must’.

　　Lucy:對了!你不可避免得要做一些事情的時候，或要做一些重要的事情的時候，就用“must”。

　　Jack : And you use ‘should’ when you want to recommend that something should be done, or when a person ought to do something, but it’s not a strict requirement.

　　Jack : 當你想建議該做什么事情了，或該一個人做什么事情了，但又不是嚴格的要求的話，就用“should”。

　　Lucy : That’s correct! You know the difference now. You should give yourself a treat!

　　Lucy:對!你現(xiàn)在會區(qū)分了。你應該獎勵一下自己!

　　Jack : I should, so it’s not a requirement and I may or may not do it.

　　Jack : 我應該，所以這不是一個要求，我可以做，也可以不做。

　　Lucy : It’s your choice. But we must hear some sample conversations.

　　Lucy:由你決定。但我們必須聽一些會話示范。

　　Jack : We must, so we have to. Okay, let’s go!
