35、l the papers have been collected. A. canB. willC. mayD. shall 【答案解析】1D。must表示推测。根据句意：他们一定正在等我们。所以用must be waiting。2D。由even though可知该题意为：她很勇敢，尽管她腿受了伤，她仍然设法独自回家了。而be able to= manage to，有克服困难设法成功之意。3A。cannot / can not / never too/ enough是一固定搭配，表示“越越好”、“再也不过分”。4C。考查情态动词will的用法。will表示意志、意愿和决心。5B。used to和

36、would都有“过去常常”之意，但used to有今昔对比之意，现在再也不这样了。而would无此用法。6C。解此题的关键：一、掌握反意疑问句的基本构成，即“前肯后否，前否后肯”。二、了解used to构成的反意疑问句有两种 （didnt和usednt或usent）。三、知道there构成的反意疑问句可由there直接构成，而不用it，所以选择C。7B。can作为情态动词，它有一特殊用法，即：表示“有时会”= is sometimes等一般情况。句意为：我们家住山顶，所以有时夏天风会很大。8B。shall用于第一、三人称疑问句时表示征求对方意见或指示。二、三人称表示说话人的命令、警告、允诺或威

37、胁。9B。should意为“竟然”。should have done意为“竟然做了某事”。句意：我很惊讶，他竟然比赛输了。10A。had better是一特殊情态动词，它可以写成better，但无论是had better，还是better，其反意疑问句均由had引导。此外，还遵循“前肯后否”的原则。故选A。11A。此题考查情态动词ought to的特殊用法。它有表示“道德法律上的必须”之意。此句意为：“先生，您不能在这捕鹿，它们是国家保护动物”。cant虽有“不能、不准”之意，但它不表示“法律上的不准，道义上的不能”之意，所以排除B。oughtnt to相当于shouldnt，但前者语气更为强

38、烈。wont表示“不愿、不能”，故排除。neednt表“不必”，不符合题意。因此排除D。12A。can不能用于肯定句中表示推测；will表将来或意愿；should have done意为“本应该却未”。句子表达的是一种对过去的猜测，但可能性不大。13D。因对话是对过去事情的推测，所以不能选择A和B。从上句意义可知：已坐了5个人的小车里再挤一个人一定不是舒服的旅行。答案为D。14C。表示对未来可能出现的一种事实的推测，但不是很肯定。15D。谚语：“三人行，必有我师”。16A。本句意为“你能把那本我给你打电话时你提到的那本书借给我吗?”，用过去进行时表示对过去情节，场面的描述。17A。shall用

39、于第一、第三人称表示请求允许，“让这个新来者试试好吗?”18C。“我们本不该觉得这么累，我们只是参加了个聚会嘛”。have been to是已发生的事实，“本不该”也是已经存在的状况。shouldnt have felt是对已存在的情况的虚拟。shouldnt“(照常理)本不应该”。19B。shall用于第三人称表示征求许可。20B。第一句表示要“拜访Mr Richardson”；第二个人因此说我给他发个电子邮件“so (that) he may know”以便于他可以知道“什么时候接我们(期待我们到达)”故选B。21C。说话人在主句中使用了过去时态，因此，用来修饰从句的让步状语从句就必定是过

40、去时态，这样，就排除了A、D项。should have done表示的是责备对方应该做某事而没有做，上句已经说明是走路而不是乘车，这样，就把可would go排除了。22A。cannot / can not / never too / enough是一固定搭配，表示“越越好”、“再也不过分”。23C。should have done意为“本该干某事”。must have done 意为“准是做了”，不合题意。24A。couldnt have done表示对过去情况的推测，“过去不大可能发生某事”。B项表示本不必做某事而实际上却已做了。C项形式错。D项含有责备批评意味，用于肯定句表示在某时间之前

41、应该完成的事而没完成，用于否定句表示本不该做的事却做了。25C。根据句意：研究结果表明我们每天都会有2小时在做梦，不管我们白天做了什么。空格处应是表示对白天所做的事情的不肯定的推测。故选C。25D。对现在所发生的事情的否定推测。27C。对过去发生的事情的否定推测。句意：有人告诉我John今天上午又出车祸了。我不相信。他不可能那么粗心的。couldnt have done意为“不可能做了”。28B。句意：就是玩电脑游戏浪费了这个小男孩很多时间，其实他本应当把时间化在学业上的。ought to have done含有责备批评之意。故答案为B。29C。根据此对话的语境，此空应是“你不可能知道，你当时

42、正在国外读书呢”。you couldnt have是you couldnt have known we were friends的简略形式。该句式表示对过去有把握的否定推测。A项表示“也许知道”；B项表示 “没必要知道”；D项表示“一定知道”。均不合题意。30C。前句是must have +过去分词时，若前句强调对过去情况的推测（一般都有过去时间状语），疑问部分的谓语动词用didnt + 主语；若前句强调动作的完成，疑问部分的谓语动词用havent/ hasnt +主语。根据题意，by the end of last month（到上月底为止），表示动作的完成。31C。cant have do

43、ne 表示对过去发生的行为不肯定。32D。考查情态动词的用法。can表“可以”，neednt表“不必”。33D。句意： 她一定回到峡谷了。 不，不可能的。峡谷口找不到的。must have done的否定形式应是：cant / couldnt have done。34C。could have done意为“本来可以干某事”。35B。cant have done表示对过去发生的行为的不肯定推测，意为“不可能干过某事”。36C。因为题目中由ought to， 其表示过去动作的have在省略回答时不能舍弃。37D。might表示把握性小的判断，意为“也许”。从第二句话说话人要打电话查明，说明他不太清

44、楚，所以用might。must表示有把握的推测would和will表示推测时把握性仅决于must，意为“大概是”。38D。A、B项因为第二空有并列连词，排除，C项第一空意思不对，排除；D项第一空表示“将来”的时间，第二空表示“转折”的含义。39A。shall用于第二、三人称。表示意图、意志、允诺、命令、命运或必然结果等，此处表示必然结果“她必须先去”。因为后面的从句说明了这种情况：“不管她是不是喜欢”，说明不由她个人决定。选项C表达不了这种意思。40A。should用于情态动词时可以表示“应该会，一定吧”。外国人善于做饺子，他们做饺子的情形一定会很有趣。may只是用于不太确定的推测，不足以表达

45、文中的含义can通常情况下用于疑问句和否定句的推测；will表示将来的情况，而外国人做饺子有趣是一般情况下都会发生的事情。41C。应该注意上句时态是was，“当时门是开着的”。对过去的事件的否定推测用can not have been。42A。must表猜测时，只用于肯定句，而依据They must be somewhere可以判断答案。43C。mustnt表示“禁止”“绝对不可能”，must表示猜测时，语气比may更加肯定。44D。ought to可以表示“根据外界的事实或条件做出判断”。can用于推测时常出现在否定句或疑问句中；may和might表示推测的不确定性。45D。根据语境，表示有

46、把握的推测，“一定开始上课了”。must + 动词原形是对现在情况推测，must + have done表示对过去或已发生的情况的推测，may表示把握性较小的推测。should表示预期，“应该会，一定会吧”。46A。would在这里的意思是“过去经常做某事”，符合语境，而B、C、D均无法使此句合理通顺。47C。should do的意思是“应该会，定吧”，表示“预期”。48C。根据语境，是对过去了的事情表示感谢。情态动词 + have done，表示过去。would意为“会，将”。49C。根据上下文，他们还没到这里的原因有可能是他们错过了汽车。错过汽车，没按时到一定是一个过去的动作，所以排除B、

47、D项。can表示推测时常用于否定句和疑问句中。故C项是最佳答案。50C。may在此表示对将来的事实进行猜测。51B。该句表示对过去的事实进行猜测，用C、D项含义均不对。52D。问句中使用了过去时态，说明动作发生在“过去”；A、C项表示“现在”或者“将来”，排除。must不能和完成时一起用于疑问句，排除。这里should have done表示应该做某事而没有做，带有批评的口气。53A。此句应该用情态动词的省略形式，根据意思应用should。54C。wouldnt表“不会”，一般用在过去时态；mustnt表“一定不可以，千万不要”；shouldnt表“应该不会”；neednt表“没必要”。55C。首先排除B、D，B表示一种委婉，此时没必要，D项must语气不对。shall表单纯的将来，而will更好，表示我们将来愿意去。56B。“would”表示一种经常性动作，相当于“used to do”，但意思不完全相同。57B。do这一助动词既指代了上文的“keep quiet in class”，又表强调，由于此题设置的是通常状态下，故选do，如果用来指过去的动作，则用did。58C。would表“会”，should为“应该
