In the same way that we use modal verbs to say how certain we are about things in the present we can also use them to speculate about the past.
我们用情态动词来表述对现在的确定程度，同样，我们也能用它们对过去进行推测。
Have + past participle?(‘have done’, ‘have been’ have stolen’?etc.) is called the?perfect infinitive. When we use modal verbs to talk about the present they are followed by an infinitive without ‘to’. When we use modal verbs to talk about the past they are followed by a perfect infinitive.
Have+动词过去式（have done, have been, have stolen等）被称为完成时不定式。当我们使用情态动词来讨论现在，后面跟着一个没有to的不定式。当我们使用情态动词来讨论过去时，他们后面跟着完成时不定式。
