解析试题分析:考查情态动词用法。Should have done本应该做某事,实际上却未做;根据后面的did说明是对过去发生的情况的推测。句意:怀特先生本应该在8点30来参加会议的,但是他没有出现。故A正确。
考点:考查情态动词用法
点评:本题是高考必考考点,一定要牢记句型意思。must have done过去肯定做了某事。should have done 本应该做而实际未做。can’t have done 过去不可能做了某事;shouldn’t have done 本不应该做而实际做了。 need have done 本有必要做某事;needn’t have done 本没有必要做某事;注意没有 mustn’t have done的形式。
It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp. It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr. White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.
Once Mr. White was ill in bed. He couldn't work and a young officer, Mr. Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr. Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening with the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they were all drunk. Of course they found the officer was angry.
"I'm sorry, sir," said the first soldier. "I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back."
And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier's turn. He said, "I'm sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…"
Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, "If you say something was wrong with your bus, I'll punish you at once!"
"No, no, sir," said the young man. "My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way!"
