can has a long history of use by educated speakers to express permission, particularly in British English.What is more, the blurring of the line between
can and
may is socially and historically inevitable, since politeness often makes the use of
can preferable in the .permission. sense. For example, the sentence

Students can take no more than three courses allows the possibility that a student who is unusually capable may take more, whereas
Students may take no more than three courses does not. · The use of
can to express permission is better tolerated in negative questions, as in

由于这要求学生清楚地区分可能的和得到许可的两者之间的差异,而这对小孩子们常常是不太明显的。并且在其今后的生活中,为明确起见,体会这种差异常常是很可取的。因此,句子
