"There is(53)Cook in the Australian Museum," museum collection manager Jude Philip said not long ago in announcing the DNA evidence that the arrow was not made of Cook’s bone. But that will not stop the museum from continuing to display the arrow in its(54) "Uncovered: Treasures of the Australian Museum," which(55)include a feather cape presented to Cook by Hawaiian King Kalani ’opu’u in 1778.

"On this occasion technology has won," said Cliff Thornton, president of the Captain Cook Society, in a(64)from Britain. "But I am(65)that one of these days ...one of the Cook legends will prove to be true and it will happen one day."
选项
A、must
B、did
C、has to
D、does
答案
D
解析
does用在动词前表示强调,does include的意思是“确实包括”。用did不妥,因为主句的谓语用的是一般将来时will not stop。has to或must也不妥,因为上下文的意思并没有要求用“必须”(must)或“不得不”(has to)。
