A．should have avoided B．should be avoided C．could have avoided D．could have been avoided
详细分析：选D 句意：如果那位愤怒的女乘客和司机都保持冷静的话，这次造成车上15人死亡的事故本可以避免的。根据从句中“had kept calm”可知本句是表示与过去事实相反的假设，所以主句谓语必须用could/should/would＋have done。又因为“the accident”与“avoid”之间是被动关系，所以用被动式。故选D。

have happened.
A．would be put C．should be put
B．were put D．had been put
