One of the few things you_____say about English people with certainty is that they talk a lot about

One of the few things you_____say about English people with certainty is that they talk a lot about the weather.A.need    B.must    C.should   D.can这个怎么做啊？为什么？意思是什么？

Answer 1

D
意思是， 英国人为数不多的话题中你可以确定说的一个是他们关于天气谈论很多。
该句子整体是一个表语从句，但主语one of the few things后面跟了一个定语从句，是先行词部分，（that）you can say about English people with certainty 是定语从句，由于先行词在定语从句中作的是宾语，所以that可以省略
can在此句中表达一种客观的可能性，我们知道在肯定句中表可能性的多用may或might，如It may be John who opened the door for us this morning. (具体事情发生的可能性），
而表示否定的则是用can't，如 they can't be at home,for the light in not on.
但就客观性事物发生与否的推断则用can，如 Accidents can happen during rainny days.

Answer 2

你好。答案是D
CAN 在这里强调能力。
can do sth with certainty-----肯定能做某事
翻译：
天气是你能够与英国人交谈的为数不多的事情。
