Question

Mr. White __________ at 8:30 for the meeting, but he didn’t show up.

A．should have arrived	B．should arrive
C．had arrived	D．should be arriving

Answer 1

A

試題分析：考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞用法。Should have done本應(yīng)該做某事，實(shí)際上卻未做；根據(jù)后面的did說明是對過去發(fā)生的情況的推測。句意：懷特先生本應(yīng)該在8點(diǎn)30來參加會(huì)議的，但是他沒有出現(xiàn)。故A正確。
點(diǎn)評：本題是高考必考考點(diǎn)，一定要牢記句型意思。must have done過去肯定做了某事。should have done 本應(yīng)該做而實(shí)際未做。can’t have done 過去不可能做了某事；shouldn’t have done 本不應(yīng)該做而實(shí)際做了。 need have done 本有必要做某事；needn’t have done 本沒有必要做某事；注意沒有 mustn’t have done的形式。
