—Why does Thomas speak through every discussion but never listen to the others?
—That's what he ________ do. We used to hate that, but are used to it now.
A.ought to
B.can
C.will
D.might
答案
答案:C
答案:C 考查情态动词。ought to最基本的意思是“应该”,既可指有责任或义务,也可指建议或劝告某人“应该”做某事,还可指推测某事或某情况“应该”会发生等;can表能力;will表意愿,还可表示决心、许诺、指示、叮嘱等;might意为“也许”,常表推测。由语境可知,答句意为:那是他愿意做的事情。过去我们讨厌,现在已经习惯了。故C项正确。
