句子分析

这是一道选择题：

1. To think she might have missed the plane.

A. It's possible she might have missed the plane.

B. She heard that her flight had been canceled.

C. It's a good thing she didn't miss her flight.

D. She didn't think the passengers would miss her.

题目的答案是：C

题目的意思可能是：

答案是按照第2种意思选择的。

我现在想问的是，为什么A答案不行呢？比如说表示，“她竟然可能错过了飞机”这件事是可能的，以及“她竟然差点错过了飞机”这件事是可能的？

might have done 含有“本来可能已经......”的意思，不能再与 possible （可能的）连用，否则是犯了语义重复的错误。所以，本题选择 A. It's possible she might have missed the plane 是错误的。

To think+that从句（that可省略）为习语，用来表示对某事的发生感到惊讶、不可思议。

词典释义：

1 It is really shocking or surprising that (something is the case).

2 used to show that you are surprised or shocked by something:

词典例句：

And to think, if I had taken the but to work like I normally do, I would have been in that accident, too!

I can still hardly believe it! To think that the President stayed at my hotel!

To think that he was killed on the last day of the war. It’s so sad.

你的句子：

To think she might have missed the plane.

由于to think在此表示难以置信、不可思议的意思，所以that从句不可能是表示说话人对过去情况的推测。而是表示（要是她晚到二分钟），她本可能误了飞机的。实际没有误飞机。that从句为虚拟语气，省略了听说双方不言而喻的一个if虚拟条件句。
