每课一句：新概念英语第1册第135课
【往期回顾】
接下来，我们就来看看第135课的“每课一句”。
一、课文原文
Lesson 135 The latest report
Are you really going to retire, Miss Marsh?
I may. I can’t make up my mind. I will have to ask my future husband. He won’t let me make another film.
Your future husband, Miss Marsh?
Yes. Let me introduce him to you. His name is Carlos. We are going to get married next week.
Look, Liz! Here’s another report about Karen Marsh. Listen:
“Karen Marsh: The Latest. At her London Hotel today Miss Marsh told reporters she might retire. She said she couldn’t make up her mind. She said she would have to ask her future husband. She said her future husband would not let her make another film. Then she introduced us to Carlos and told us they would get married next week.”
That’s sensational news, isn’t it, Kate?
It certainly is. He’ll be her sixth husband!

二、每课一句
She said she couldn't make up her mind.
本课继续学习间接引语的用法，而且与第133课一样的是，侧重学习的也是当主句动词采用一般过去时的用法。
只是，与第133课不同的是，本课侧重学习的是当直接引语的谓语动词的时态为一般将来时或谓语动词中含有情态动词时的用法，此时will do要改为would do，can或may等情态动词要改为相应的过去形式could或might。
如：
He said to Jane, 'I'll leave tomorrow.'
改为间接引语后应该是：
He told Jane he would leave tomorrow.
再比如：
She said to me, 'I may return at six o'clock.'
改为间接引语后应该是：
She told me she might return at six o'clock.
【注意】
如果直接引语中的情态动词是must、had better等，它们本身没有时态的变化，改为间接引语后还是保留其原形。
如：
Bob said to Kelly, 'You must return my pen next week.'
改为间接引语后应该是：
Bob told Kelly she must return his pen next week.
三、更多拓展
I will have to ask my future husband.
注意have to虽然常和情态动词must或need等一起区分使用，但其实have to是按照实义动词的规则来使用的，也就是说它有人称和数以及时态的变化。
比如：
We have to leave now.
He has to go there at once.
They had to walk home yesterday.
课文中的will have to表示将来不得不做某事，相当于中文里的“得...”。
