Question

Some women _      _ a good salary in a job instead of staying home, but they decided not to work for the sake of the family．

A．should make	B．should have made
C．would make	D．could have made

Answer 1

D

解析试题分析：句意：一些妇女本来可以得到一份很好的工作报酬而不是呆在家里，但是她们决定为了家庭不去工作。从but they decided not to work for the sake of the family．可知前面的内容是对过去的虚拟，排除AC，could have done“本可以做却没有做”，should have done“本应该做却没有做”，选D。
考点：考查情态动词和虚拟语气
