问题 "It’s a shame that the city official should have gone back on his word." The modal auxiliary SHOULD expresses _____.

选项 A、obligation
B、disappointment
C、future in the past
D、tentativeness

答案B

解析 情态动词的含义很多,在不同的语境中具有不同的意义。题干句子意为“这位市政官员竟然食言,这真是个耻辱。”从这个句子中可看出,should表达了一种“失望愤怒”的情感。故选B。注意本题中的go backon one’s word为固定短语,指“毁约,食言”。
