用法
(1)The construction able to ascribes to its subject the ability to accomplish the action expressed in its complement:
詞組able to 表示其主語具備完成補充成分裡所提到的行為的能力：
The troupe was able to get a grant for the project from a large corporation.
軍隊可以從一個大公司裡獲得這個項目的贊助。
The new submarine is able to dive twice as fast as the older model.
這種新潛艇可以比舊型號快一倍。
(2)It should be avoided when such an ascription is unwarranted, as with passive constructions involving forms of the verb be; thus it is inconsistent to say The problem was able to be solved through the method she had learned about in business school, since this sentence ascribes no capacity or ability to the problem itself. In such cases, can or could can usually be substituted: The problem could be solved . . . By contrast, passives with get ascribe a more active role to their subjects, and here the able to construction can be used:
當這種起因並非必要時，則被動態中用到動詞be應避免使用這詞組， 因此這問題可用她在商業學校中學到的方法來解決 的說法是矛盾的， 其原因是這個句子並未將某種能力歸因於問題本身。在這種情況下，通常可使用can 或 could 來替代： 這問題可以被解決… 。相反，帶get 的被動態表示一個更為能動的主語， 這樣able to 結構就可以用為：
He was able to get himself accepted by a top law school.
他可以使自己被一所一流法律學校所錄取。
