答案解析
1. C。「ought to / should have+過去分詞」表示後悔當初該做但卻沒做某事。「…也許我本該把詳細地址寫給她的。」
2. D。「couldn’t have+過去分詞」表示對過去情況的推測。既然小汽車上「已有五人」，且是「設法」才把你帶去的，如此擁擠，旅途當然「不可能」舒服。
3. C。nearly 暗示「時間不早了」，Jack「按理應當(should)隨時(at any moment)」都有可能到達這裡。must 語氣過強;can 一般不用於肯定推測;need 意義不通，也不用於肯定句。
4. B。mustn’t(不許、千萬不)表示禁止。may 表示可能性。句意為「你千萬不要玩刀子，可能會弄傷自己的」。
5. D。表示過去具體某次「能夠」做成某事只能用 was / were able to 而不用could。
6. B。should 表示按理應當，大概。can 一般不用於肯定推測;用 might 語氣太不肯定，顧客可能走掉。
7. A。could have done 表示本可以做但卻沒有做的事。句意為「你本來可以住在 Barbara 那兒的」;而 must have done 只表示有把握的肯定推測，這與前面具有疑問語氣的 Oh, did you?不符。
8. D。語境明顯提示「我可能(might)要去聽音樂會」 (from www.yygrammar.com)。
9. B。表示輕微的責備，句意為「我真的好擔心你啊。你當時本不該不說一聲就離開家的」。
10. D。由「他自己喜歡開車」這一習慣推斷，「他可能不會(may not)坐火車來」。can not「不可能」，語氣太肯定。
11. B。can 表示「可以」。should(應該), must(必須), will(願意)均不符合語境。
12. D。dare 作行為動詞時,一般接 to do，但疑問式或否定式中 to 可以省略，此句有疑問口氣。
13. A。would 表示過去的習慣(from www.yygrammar.com)。
14. D。在規章中告誡應考者，在收完所有試卷前「必須」留在教室裡。
15. A。can 在疑問句中，表示疑惑、懷疑，根據情況可譯作「能、可以」等。
