(1)likely是形容词,表示某事很可能发生,与probable 意思相近,但主语可以是人也可以是物。常用于“It is likely that...或sb./sth.be likely to do...”句型中,但不能说“It is likely for sb.to do sth.”。
(2)possible可能性相对小,作表语时,主语不能是人,常用句式为“It is possible for sb. to do sth.”或“It is possible that...”。
【易混辨析】
(3)probable 带有“很可能”的意味,语气比possible强,作表语时不能用人或不定式作主语,常用句式为“It is probable that...”。
①It isn’t
likely that I should accept such an offer as that.
②It’s possible_to break with old habits.
③It is _probable that he will succeed.
3.Young Americans who don’t go to university ________get jobs which bring low income.
