解析：本题考查情态动词。句意为：玛丽肯定没有收到我的邮件，否则，到现在应该已经回复了。根据句意可排除A、B两项；此处是表示对否定句的肯定推测，用couldn’t。shouldn’t表示不应该。所以，答案为D。
7.Whenever we hear of a natural disaster, we feel sympathetic to the people to be affected.(D)
A. to have affected

解析：本题考查句子时态和词义辨析。本句话意为“每当听说自然灾害时，我们都会对那些遭受影响的人表示同情。”动词不定式常表将要发生的动作，与句意不符，故排除；affect“影响，感染”，effect“产生，达到(目的等)”，根据句意可知，affect“影响”符合题意。故本题答案为D。
8.The recent conference on the effective use of the seas and oceans was another attempt resolving major differences among countries with conflicting interests.(C)

A. take over from exports
B. take from exports
C. take exports
D. takes exports
解析：本题考查习惯搭配和动词的时态。take sth. as sth. 为固定用法，意为“把……看做”。the middle class是集合名词，其作主语时，后面跟动词的第三人称单数形式。所以，答案是D。
