D.Wishyouluck參考答案：C13.Thecabdriversuddenlyhiscabalmostatthesametimehesawadogrushingintothestreet.

A.increased;so B.accelerated;butC.added;and D.produced;or參考答案：B提示:從suddenly和hesawadogrushingintothestreet看出“出租車司機突然提速,但是,幾乎就在這時……”,第一空白處應該填入表示“加速”的詞。increase“提高”;accelerate“加速”;add“添加”;produce“生產(chǎn)”。只有accelerate能夠接cab,bus,car等交通工具。前一分句與后一分句有轉(zhuǎn)折關系,因此,第二個空白處填入but。

A.looked B.amtolookC.hadlooked D.havebeenlooking參考答案：D提示:句意:“你為什么來我們公司工作?”“這是我一直在尋找的工作。”此空用現(xiàn)在完成進行時表示過去開始的動作持續(xù)到現(xiàn)在,并產(chǎn)生影響。

16.【2011江蘇卷,34】——Ileftmyhandbagonthetrain,butluckilysomeonegaveittoarailwayofficial.——Howunbelievabletogetitback!Imean,someone______it.A.willhavestolen

B.mighthavestolenC.shouldhavestolen

D.musthavestolen參考答案：B試題分析：考查情態(tài)動詞。may/mighthavedone可能已經(jīng)做了某事；shouldhavedone本應該做某事（實際上未做）；musthavedone一定已經(jīng)做了某事。根據(jù)情境可知，手提包沒有被偷，這里只是一個不確定的推測。句意：——我把手提包落在火車上了，但是，幸運的是，有人把它送到了鐵路辦公室。——能重新找回真是難以置信！我是說，有人可能已經(jīng)偷走了它。故B正確。二、新的題型36.____________
