Question

Had they known what was coming next, they ___________ second thoughts.

A. may have
B. could have
C. must have had
D. might have had

Answer 1

答案D
本题考查虚拟语气的用法。本句是一个倒装句，可还原为：if they had known what was coming next, they might have had second thought。根据had known提示，可知是与过去事实相反，因此虚拟语气主句中应该用would/might have done，由此可见答案D符合语境。
