选择题
We all know that we ________ our carbon footprint, but I suspect that many people wouldn't be prepared to go as far as Joan Pick, a retired scientist living in south London.
A.must have reduced
B.should have reduced
C.may have reduced
D.could have reduced
答案
答案:B
B 考察情态动词。句义:我们都知道本应该减少碳,但是我怀疑很少有人能够项Joan Pick一样。Must have done表示对过去情况的肯定推测。过去一定…;should have done本应该做某事,实际上却未做。May have done或许…;表示没有太大的把握,根据句义说明B正确。
