参考答案：
1．C
look for寻找；find找到。第一空所在句子表示“你是否正在寻找你的狗”，第一空意为“寻找”，表示找的过程，且用现在进行时，表示正在寻找，因此第一空是looking for；第二空所在句子表示结果，表示找不到，因此第二空是find。故选C。
2．C
情态动词should可以表示某种惊讶的语气表示“竟然”之意。此处根据后文“这远远超出了预期”可知，此处表示“我们”的预测“竟然”如此准确。综上，故选C项。
3．A
A. shall应该；B. need需要；C. dare敢；D. have to必须。根据句意，此处表示说话人对将来的一种推测或者预测，用shall。故选A。
4．A
A. should应该；B. dare敢；C. must必须，一定；D. can能，会。根据“Although he is only a child”可知，虽然他只是一个孩子，与空格所在的句子为转折关系，所以此处表示的是“会，能”应为can符合句意。故选C项
5．D
A. should应该；B. shall将、会；C. might也许；D. can。句子描述可能发生的事情，情态动词can可以用来表示可能性，意为“可能、可能会”。故选D。
6．B
A. can能、可以；B. would（表达愿望）会，将会；C. must必须；D. should应该。结合句意可知，此处用表达愿望的情态动词would。故选B项。
7．D
must have done一定做某事。表示对过去事情的较有把握的推测。由“ He looks amazingly different.”可知，他在法国一定过得很愉快。所以这是对过去事情的较有把握的推测。故选D项。
8．B
A. can’t不能；B. mustn’t严禁；C. shouldn’t不应该；D. wouldn’t不会。由上文“When the red light is on”和下文“cross the street.”可知，红灯亮了，严禁穿过马路，此处应用mustn’t表示“禁止”，故选B。
9．B
句中情态动词may意为“可能”，表示推测，语意较弱。根据句意，故B项正确。
10．B
A. might可能；B. should应该；C. could能够；D. would将会。分析句意可知，因为我善于理财，可以推测在钱的问题上应该没有问题。表示“推测、可能性、(按理说)应该”之意用“should”。故选B项。
11．C
A.can能够；B.could能够；C.may或许；D.would将。根据下文but it still works really well，此处表示事实上的可能性，用may ，can表示逻辑上的可能性。故选C。
12．C
A. swallow吞下；B. swell膨胀，肿胀；C. shrink(尤指因恐惧而)退缩，畏缩，回避；D. stroke划掉。根据“should not”和“from defending social justice”可知，此处是指我们不应该逃避维护社会正义。在情态动词should后应用动词原形。故选C。
13．A
A. could have done本可以做某事而没有做；B. must have done一定做过某事；C. should do应该做某事；D. might do可能做某事。根据“but I didn’t think you would listen to me.”可知，本可以告诉你你的错误。故选A。
14．D
句子表示的是“本该在做决定之前接受你的建议，但实际没有”，应用“should have done”，意为“过去本该做某事，而实际上没做”，“could”意为“可以”，“should”意为“应该”，“ought to”意为“应该”，均不符合语境。故选D项。
15．C
A. must一定；B. shall必须，将要；C. may可能；D. will将会。根据上文“I'm not quite sure.”可知，此处指不确定的猜测，表示“可能”应用may。故选C。
16．C
can表示推测，往往用于否定句或疑问句；must表示非常有把握的肯定性推测；may表示可能；will表示意愿。根据题意“ in case he comes”可知，以防他会来，是一种不确定的猜测，用may合适。故选C。
17．B
A. mustn’t禁止；B. needn’t 不必；C. may not可能不；D. can’t不可能。由语意可知，现在非常早，所以我们不必担心时间。故选B项。
18．B
A. shouldn’t play不应该开玩笑；B. shouldn’t have played本不应该开玩笑；C. needn’t play不需要开玩笑 ；D. needn’t have played本不需要开玩笑。根据句意，Susan看起来有点沮丧，是因为自己已经被开玩笑了，而句子的描述与客观事实相反，故使用虚拟语气。shouldn’t have done表示的虚拟语气，其意义是：本不应该做某事，但是事实却做了。“开某人玩笑”表示为play a joke on sb，结合句意。故选B。
19．D
A. must tell肯定告诉；B. could tell可能告诉；C. should have told本应该告诉；D. might have told可能告诉过。根据句意和宾语从句的was判断，此处是对过去情况不太确定的推测，应用might have done“可能做过某事”，故选D项。
20．C
根据“What's wrong with our society？”可知，本句是表示意外的情况，should作情态动词时，可以用来表示意外、惊喜或者在说话人看来是不可思议的情况，意为“竟然，居然”。故选C项。
21．A
A. must have done一定已经做了；B. should have done本应做；C. could do能做；D. would do会做。根据句意可知，演讲很成功，说话人向演讲者表达祝贺，说话人推测演讲者在此之前一定为这次比赛下了很大的功夫；对过去情况的肯定推测用must have done结构，意为“一定做了……”。故选A项。
22．B
分析句子可知，计算机出故障这是可能的事情，表示客观可能性用can。故选B项。
23．B
A. mustn’t禁止；不得；B. can’t 不能；不可能（表否定推测）；C. may not可能不（表把握不大的否定推测）； D. wouldn’t不会。根据后文“He has gone to America”可知，“他”去了美国（还没回来），因此“It ________be the headmaster.”应表述有把握的否定推测“不可能”。 24．B
A. should应该；B. must必须；C. would将；D. need需要。must have done“一定做过某事”表示对过去的事情的肯定性推测。根据“to build it in ancient times.”可知，古代建长城一定是一项浩大的工程。故选B。
25．D
A. wouldn’t不会；B. mustn’t 禁止；C. shouldn’t不应该；D. can’t不可能。根据上文There is no light in Smith’s room.可知此处表示否定的推测，即Smith“不可能”在家。故选D。
26．B
A. Can’t不能，不可能；B. Must必须，非要，偏要，一定；C. May可以，可能；D. Won’t不会。结合语境，此处表示指责，用must“偏要，非要”符合。故选B。
27．A
A. must必须，一定；B. could可以；C. should应该；D. need需要。结合句意及“to build it in ancient times”可知，此处表示对过去肯定的推测，指在古代修建长城一定是一项非常浩大的工程，故选A。
28．B
should跟在how和why之后，可以表示惊讶、遗憾和不满等情绪。通过上文“it’s none of my business”可知，此处表示我的不满情绪。故此题选B。
