问题 Which of the following modal verbs doesn’t express ability?

选项 A、Andy can speak French very though she’s bad at English.
B、There were so many things to do that no one could finish them.
C、I can persuade him to take part in the sports meeting.
D、The hunters could starve as they have been lost for days.

答案D

解析情态动词用法题。can与could均可表能力，区别在于could通常表示的是过去的一种能力。除此之外，两者也可表推测，描述事情发生的可能性。本题A、B、C项的情态动词均表示一种能力，只有D项表推测。故答案为D。
