Question

The old man said that the accident _________ careless driving, so a lot of money _________ by the driver.

A．due to; be paid

B．was due to; should be paid

C．was due to; be paid

D．is due to; be paid

Answer 1

B

本题考查due和should的用法。。due to sb. / sth.意为“由某人/某事引起的”；“由于某人/ 某事”。因此第一空应为was due to，句意为：事故是由于粗心驾驶造成的。 第二空意为“应支付”即should be paid，所以答案为B。
