Question

【題目】—It was such a difficult examination that a lot of students were unable to finish it on time.
—That's the case. It's hard to accept the fact that over 90% of my classmates ________.
A.should fail
B.should have failed
C.will fail
D.may fail

Answer 1

【答案】B
【解析】考查情態動詞和時態。句意：這場考試如此之難以至于許多學生都沒有能及時完成。——是的，我班上超過90%的學生竟然都沒有及格。依照前一句的語境可知，考試的難度出乎了大家的預料，而后一句意思上也與前一句相似，表示“竟然也失敗了”，should表示“出乎意料之外”；“失敗”的動作已經發生，并對現在造成了影響，故B項正確。
