Answer A

Kỹ năng: Ngữ pháp

Giải thích:

should have + PII: đáng lẽ phải làm gì nhưng đã không làm.

Các đáp án khác:

B – must have + PII: hẳn là đã làm gì đó trong quá khứ

C – could (not) + V: có(không) thể làm gì trong quá khứ

D – didn’t have to do st: không phải làm gì trong quá khứ

Do giữa 2 vế câu có “but” nên anh ta đáng ra phải đi mà không đi => đáp án A là thích hợp.

Dịch nghĩa: Đáng lẽ ra anh ấy phải đến bác sĩ sau tai nạn, nhưng thay vào đó anh ấy lại chơi tiếp.
