34．-Did you visit the famous cultural relics last month?

-No, we ______it, but we spent too much time shopping.

A．could have visited　 　　　　　　　 B．must have visited

C．can't have visited　 　　　　 D．shouldn't have visited

解析：此题考查了虚拟语气。从问句我们可以看出：你上月参观了那个著名的文化古迹吗？而在答句中：我们花费了大量的时间买东西。所以空格处表示与过去事实相反的一个假设。must have done 表示“对过去某事肯定性的推测”；can't have done 表示“对过去某事否定性的推测”；shouldn't have done 的意思为“本不该做某事而事实上却做了某事”。它们均与句子后面的意思不符。

答案：A

28．Hearing the news, she rushed out, ______ the book ______ on the table and disappeared into the distance.

A．left; lain open　 　　　　　　 B．left; lay opened

C．leaving; lie opened　 　　　 D．leaving; lying open

解析：该题主要考查具体语境中对谓语形式与非谓语形式的分辨能力。“将书打开着放在桌子上”应为“冲出去”的伴随动作作方式状语，故应用现在分词形式，并非一连串发生的三个动作，不能和 rushed out, disappeared 构成并列谓语。英语中无 leave sb./sth. to sth. 结构，故可排除C。在 leaving the book lying open on the table 中，现在分词短语 lying open 作 leaving 的宾语补足语。

答案：D
