Question

—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

Answer 1

C

答案：C　考查情態(tài)動詞。ought to最基本的意思是“應(yīng)該”，既可指有責(zé)任或義務(wù)，也可指建議或勸告某人“應(yīng)該”做某事，還可指推測某事或某情況“應(yīng)該”會發(fā)生等；can表能力；will表意愿，還可表示決心、許諾、指示、叮囑等；might意為“也許”，常表推測。由語境可知，答句意為：那是他愿意做的事情。過去我們討厭，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了。故C項(xiàng)正確。
