问题 Person A: Where is Tim ? Person B: He might be next door.
What is the function of the modal auxiliary verb "might" in the reply?

选项 A、To express relief.
B、To dramatize a fact.
C、To indicate possibility.
D、To ask for permission.

答案C

解析 情态动词题。might一词可以用作推测,表示可能性。再结合句意可知,在回答A的问题时,B的答复中存在不确定性。因此,might在答句中所表示的是具有某种可能性。故C为答案。
