典型例題
There was plenty of time. She ___.
A. mustn't have hurried B. couldn't have hurried C. must not hurry D. needn't have hurried
答案D。needn't have done. 意為"本不必",即已經(jīng)做了某事,而時實際上不必要。
Mustn't have done 用法不正確,對過去發(fā)生的事情進(jìn)行否定性推斷應(yīng)為couldn't have done, "不可能已經(jīng)"。 must not do 不可以(用于一般現(xiàn)在時)。
