Answer 2

Let's go through each sentence and determine whether "can" or "can't" is the correct choice:

1. Can my sister read? (The question is asking if she has the ability to read, so "can" is appropriate.)
2. My sister is only 2 years old.
3. Can Ted help you? (The question is asking if he has the ability to help, so "can" is appropriate.)
4. You hear me, but he lost his hearing four years ago.
5. Mary is fond of classical music, it's so pity that she can't play any musical instrument. (The sentence is expressing regret about her inability, so "can't" is appropriate.)
6. Mr. Wolf is 82, but he still can see well. (Indicating he still has the ability to see.)
7. Dr. Smith lives too far from us, do you think we can get a taxi? (The question is about the possibility of getting a taxi, so "can" is appropriate.)
8. Tom, you can't have tried the cake! (Expressing surprise or disbelief in his ability to have tried the cake.)
9. Can you lend me some money? (Asking if you have the ability to lend money.)

So, in some cases, both "can" and "can't" can be used, depending on the intended meaning of the sentence.
