网考网解析：
[解析] 考查动词辨义和上下文理解。由于空格后是一个南how引导、用虚拟语气的宾语从句，因此表示的是一种猜测。而后文又提出了一个问题作为例子，故选wonder(想知道)最恰当。其余三项填入都不合逻辑：ask指“问”，它应当跟有间接宾语(即sb. )，或者上下文中有隐含的间接宾语；understand指“理解，明白”，remember指“记得”，它们都与下文的问句在逻辑上相矛盾。 document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
