I yelled．It was small and crowded，but we got in it anyway．Chad began to cry．"It's going to be all right．" I told him．But I was worried about Mom．I hope she'd found a safe place to wait out the storm．The storm continued to rage．I heard a thud on the roof．The whole house creaked and groaned．Then it was quiet．I opened the door and we inched our way out of the closet．Rain had got in through the open window and wet the carpets．A kitchen window had shattered，its screen blown away．I looked at the backyard．The tree was uprooted，and broken branches lay on the ground．"Jason，I can't get service，" Chad said as he held the phone in his hand．We had no electricity，either．I glanced at the wall clock．Had it been only 20 minutes since we'd first heard the thunder？Then I heard footsteps toward the house．Mom had made it home safely．"Boys!" she yelled．"Are you all right？"We ran out and hugged her．The sun came out，and this time it shone bright and clear．（1）When the tornado struck，．A．the boys felt

inspiration for Western creative．"It's no secret that China has always been a source of inspiration for designers，" says Amanda Hill，chief creative officer at A+E Networks，a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion shows．Earlier this year，the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China﹣inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art，with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics（美学）on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries．The exhibition had record attendance，showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences．"China is impossible to overlook，" says Hill．"Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world，which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion ﹣they are central to its movement．"Of course，only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China ﹣some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese．" Vera Wang，Alexander Wang，Jason Wu are taking on Galiano，Albaz，Marc Jacobs ﹣and beating them hands down in design and sales，" adds Hill．For Hill，it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion．"The most famous designers are Chinese，so are the models，and so are the consumers，" she says．"China is no longer just another market；in many senses it has become the market．If you talk about fashion today，you are talking about China ﹣its influences，its direction，its breathtaking clothes，and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways．"（1）What can we learn about the exhibition in New York？A．It promoted the sales of artworks．B．It attracted a large number of visitors．C．It showed ancient Chinese clothes．D．It aimed to introduce Chinese models．（2）What does Hill say about Chinese women？A．They are setting the fashion．B．They start many fashion campaigns．C．They admire super models．D．They do business all over the world．（3）What do the underlined words"taking on" in paragraph 4 mean？A．learning fromB．looking down onC．working withD．competing against（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？A．Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB．A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC．Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD．Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends14．（8分）It's common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting seems to look back at observers，following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room．But this common knowledge turns out wrong．A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle that's 15.4 degrees off to theobserver's right﹣well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them．In other words，said the study author，Horstmann，"She's not looking at you．" This is somewhat ironic，because the entire phenomenon of a person's gaze （凝视）in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the "Mona Lisa effect"．That effect is absolutely real，Horstmann said．If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead，even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at．As long as the angle of the person's gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side，the Mona Lisa effect occurs．This is important for human interaction with on﹣screen characters．If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person on﹣screen is looking at him or her，you don't cut the gaze of the character to that side﹣surprisingly，doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn't looking at anyone in the room at all．Instead，you keep the gaze straight ahead．Horstmann and his co﹣author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial﹣intelligence avatars（虚拟头像）when Horstmann took a long look at the "Mona Lisa" and realized she wasn't looking at him．To make sure it wasn't just him，the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the "Mona Lisa" on a computer screen．They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected（和……相交）Mona Lisa's gaze．To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa's gaze as she looked at the viewer，they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study．Consistently，the researchers found，participants judged that the woman in the "Mona Lisa" portrait was not looking straight at them，but slightly off to their right．So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer？Horstmann isn't sure．It's possible，he said，that people have the desire to be looked at，so they think the woman is looking straight at them．Or maybethe people who first coined the term "Mona Lisa effect" just thought it was a cool name．（1）It is generally believed that the woman in the painting "Mona Lisa"．A．attracts the viewers to look backB．seems mysterious because of her eyesC．fixes her eyes on the back of the viewersD．looks at the viewers wherever they stand（2）What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect？（3）The experiment involving 24 people was conducted to．A．confirm Horstmann's beliefB．create artificial﹣intelligence avatarsC．calculate the angle of Mona Lisa's gazeD．explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied（4）What can we learn from the passage？A．Horstmann thinks it's cool to coin the term "Mona Lisa effect"．B．The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence．C．Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention．D．The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers' judgement．第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）History of BroadwayWhen people think of Broadway，they may think of that part of the world﹣famous road in New York City that runs between 42nd and 53rd Streets．（1）It is a billion﹣dollar industry that includes theatrical shows in New York and live theater entertainment throughout the world．New York's Theatre District has only 39 official Broadway houses．A play house must have 500 or more seats tobe considered a Broadway theater．（2）Not all Broadway theatres are located on Broadway．In the late 1700s and early 1800s，buildings on Wall Street and places such as City Hall may have served as smaller theaters，and other locations in downtown New York City also did．Today's Broadway started when influential families contributed development of larger theaters away from the downtown area．Some people may have doubted these theaters would be successful，but they turned out to be．（3）With the rise of the new theater district，downtown changed forever as people happily traveled to the outskirts （郊区）of the city to see the best in live entertainment．When these theaters began，many actors came from European countries．In 1857 actor Edwin Booth helped transform the Broadway theatre by popularizing a type of acting realism．Unlike actors before him，Booth did not stand still on the stage and simply deliver his lines．（4）Booth's style had a notable effect on the theater，and many considered him to be the greatest actor of his time．（5）Specifically，comedies and dramas often centred on then﹣current events such as women's right to vote，the Labor Movement，and war．Broadway developed again in 1866，and the Broadway musical was created．From then on，actors entertained their audiences by singing and dancing accompanied by an orchestra．Now，Broadway is famous for various theatre productions and moving performances．A．In fact，the shows have brought it fame throughout the world．B．However，Broadway is much more than a geographical location．C．Theatres，holding 100 to 499 people，are called Off﹣Broadway theatres．D．Instead，he liked moving around and showing great emotion while acting．E．Plays followed a popular style that encouraged typical characters and plots．F．As this new style grew in popularity，the content of the shows began to change．G．Madison Square Theater，built by the Mallory family in 1880，was one of them．语法填空：阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空，在未给提示词的空白处仅填写一个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的适当形式填空．（共1小题，每小题10分，共10分）16．（10分）ASherlock Holmes and Dr．Watson go on a camping trip．After a good dinner and a bottle of wine，they

On a sunny Saturday,Sally and I drove over to the museum.She asked,"Do you have the address?""No,but I'll recognize it;there was a picture in the magazine.""Oh,stop.There it is!"The museum was free.We entered,excited.A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us."May I help you?"a man asked."No,"I said."We're fine."Tour guides got on my nerves.What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in?Sally had gone upstairs.The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的),keeping their eyes on me with curiosity.What was their problem?I saw some nice sculptures in one room.Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me."Where do you think you are?"he asked.I turned sharply."The McNay Art Museum!"He smiled,shaking his head."Sorry,the McNay is on New Braunfels Street.""What's this place?"I asked,still confused."Well,it's our home."My heart jolted(颤动).I raced to the staircase and called out,"Sally!Come down immediately!""There's some really good stuff up there."She stepped down,looking confused.I pushed her toward the front door,waving at the family,saying,"Sorry,please forgive us.You have a really nice place."Outside, when I told Sally what happened,she covered her mouth,laughing.She couldn't believe how long they let us look around without saying anything.The real McNay was splendid,but we felt nervous the whole time we were there.Van Gogh,Picasso. This time,we stayed together,in case anything else unusual happened.Thirty years later,a woman approached me in a public place."Excuse me,did you ever enter a residence, long ago,thinking it was the McNay Museum?""Yes.But how do you know?We never told anyone.""That was my home.I was a teenager sitting in the hall.Before you came over,I never realized what a beautiful place I lived in.I never felt lucky before.You thought it was a museum.My feelings about my home changed after that.I've always wanted to thank you."(24)What do we know about Marian McNay?A.She passed away.B.She worked as a community leader.C.She helped in the museum.D.She wrote articles for magazines.(25)Why did the author refuse the help from the man in the house?A.She disliked people who were nosy.B.She felt nervous when talking to strangers.C.She knew more about art than the man.D.She mistook him for a tour guide.(26)How did the author feel about being stared at by the people in the hall?A.Puzzled and annoyed.B.Concerned and anxious.C.Frightened and upset.D.Delighted and excited.(27)What could we learn from the last paragraph?A.People should have good taste to enjoy life.B.People should spend more time with their family.C.People tend to be blind to the beauty around them.D.People tend to educate teenagers at a museum.C"When I grow up,I want to be a runner."These words are spoken by thousands of Kenyan children.50 percent of the Kenyan top runners are members of Kalenjin,one minority race of the country.They make up less than two percent of Kenya's population.This fact has puzzled sports scientists.They have spent considerable time and effort trying to answer one question:What enables the Kalenjin people to run so fast?Although the question seems simple,finding the answer has proven to be difficult and controversial.A team of Danish sports scientists spent18months and discovered the Kalenjins had remarkably slow heart rates even when running long distances.Kalenjins live in high﹣elevation(高海拔)villages in the Rift Valley in western Kenya.People living at high elevations produce more red blood cells,which aid in the transport ofoxygen throughout the body.Because the air is thinner and contains less oxygen at high elevations,the body produces more red blood cells.Scientists believe there is a connection between increased red blood cells and low heart rates and that both may enable high﹣altitude athletes to outperform those who train at low altitudes. The Danish scientists also studied the bodies of the Kalenjins and compared them to those of the Danes.They found that the Kalenjins have longer"birdlike"legs.The Kalenjins also have lower body mass indexes(a measure of body fat based on weight and height)and shorter bodies than Danish people.As a result of the Danish study,some scientists made the conclusion that the Kalenjins possess what is called a"speed gene(基因)".However,Kenyan runners were offended by this conclusion.They owed their success to hard work and endless hours of training.Although the controversy over the"speed gene"remains unsolved,British runner Mo Farah's experience offers an interesting perspective on the subject.In2005,he realized he wasn't meeting his potential as a runner.A group of Kenyan runners were training in England then.After he accidentally observed the Kenyans'strict training routines and dedication to their sport,Farah said it was like a switch had been turned on in his head.He began eating healthy foods,going to bed early,and training harder than he had ever trained in his life.As a result,Farah's running career exploded.He has won seven world and Olympic titles in the5000m and regularly beats Kenya's top runners!Farah's story proves what Kenyans have known all along.Regardless of genetics,their success would not be possible without hard work,dedication,sacrifice,and mental toughness.Their"secret"is simple.Train hard, run fast,and never give up.(28)What interested the sport scientists?A.Kenyan sport history.B.Kanlenjins'running ability.C.Kanlenjins'training methods.D.Kenyans'enthusiasm for sport.(29)According to Danish scientists,what leads to Kanlenjins'success?A.Physical condition.B.Living style.C.Hard training.D.Strong will.(30)How did Kenyan runners think about Danish research result?A.Convincing.B.Unacceptable.C.Astonishing.D.Important.(31)Why is Mo Farah's story mentioned in the passage?A.To show running methods count.B.To encourage British athletes.C.To prove effort pays off.D.To support gene theory.DBy now,we are all aware that social media has had a tremendous influence on our culture,in business,on the world﹣at﹣large.Social media websites revolutionized the way people communicate and socialize on the Web.However,aside from seeing your friends'new baby on Facebook,or reading about Justin Bieber's latest conflict with the law on Twitter,what are some of the real influences?Social networks offer the opportunity for people to re﹣connect with their old friends and acquaintances, make new friends,share ideas and pictures,and many other ers can keep pace with the latest global and local developments and participate in campaigns and activities of their choice.Professionals usesocial media sites like LinkedIn to enhance their career and business development.Students can work together with their peers to improve their academic and communication skills.Unfortunately,there are a few downsides too to social networking.If you are not careful,immoral people can target you for cyber bullying and disturbance on social sites.School children,young girls,and women can fall victim to online attacks which can create tension and suffering.If you are a victim of cyber bullying,do not take it lying down,but try to take appropriate legal action against the attacker.Many companies have blocked social networks as addicted employees can distract themselves on such sites,instead of focusing on work.In fact,studies show that British companies have lost billions of dollars per year in productivity because of social media addiction among employees.Also,what you carelessly post on the Net can come back to trouble you.Revealing(泄露)personal information on social sites can make users vulnerable(易受伤害的)to crimes like identity theft,stalking,etc. Many companies perform a background check on the Web before hiring an employee.If a potential employee has posted something embarrassing on social media,it can greatly affect their chances of getting the job.The same holds true for our relationships,too,as our loved ones and friends may get to know if we post something undesirable on social networks.Social media has its advantages and drawbacks as each coin has two sides.It is up to each user to use social sites wisely to enhance their professional and Social life,and exercise caution to ensure they do not fall victim to online dangers.(32)Paragraph2mainly shows that social networks_________.A.benefit users in various waysB.offer professionals good chancesC.guide users to make right choicesD.help students finish their homework(33)Faced with problems caused by social media,some companies_________.A.take legal action against the attackersB.avoid posting embarrassing informationC.refuse to hire potential addicted employeesD.forbid the use of social networks during work time(34)The main purpose of this passage is to_________.A.share experiences in using social mediaB.provide some advice on social problemsC.raise public awareness of social problemsD.remind people to wisely use social media(35)Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?A. B.C.D.I：Introduction P：Point Sp：Sub﹣point(次要点)C：Conclusion第四部分阅读信息还原(满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.Where did your family eat dinner last night?In the car on the way to sport?At McDonald's?Or at the dinner table?A survey taken a few years ago found that28%families ate dinner together at home seven nights a week.Another quarter said they ate together three or fewer nights a week.Once upon a time the situation was different.__36__Plates,forks and spoons would be laid out.As dinner time approached,an increasing number of hungry mouths would begin to appear with the question,"What's for dinner?"__37__The data seems to point to two main issues:overworked parents and overscheduled children. When mum or dad do get home in the evening,they are soon in the car again to send the children to soccer, music,tutoring,and a host of other events.This nightly ceremony around the dinner table is both vital and fruitful;it is what keeps a family together. Sure,the conversation is not always significant,and children argue.And sometimes the deepest and most meaningful times in a family are not at the table at all.__38__The dinner table is the place where a family builds an identity.Stories are passed down,jokes are exchanged and the wider world is examined through the lens(镜头)of a family's values.Children pick up vocabulary and a sense of how conversation is structured. __39__Dinner time is"family time".Coming back daily to the same place helps gain familiarity.The significance of dinner time is more than above.Studies show that the more families eat together,the less likely the children are to smoke,drink,get depressed,and develop eating disorders,and the more likely they are to do well in school and learn how to socialize.One professor at Rutgers University in New Jersey stated,"__40__"So,start by planning some stay at home family dinners together.Just family talk.A.A meal is a time for parents to civilize their

AFor more than two decades, France is known as the world’s most popular tourist attraction, receiving 82 million foreign tourists every year. Here are some of the best places to visit in France.MarseilleMarseille is one of Europe’s oldest cities and France’s second largest city. Having a nice climate, Roman ruins, medieval (中世纪的) architecture and cultural scenes, Marseille is also a working city with several universities and industries. One of Marseille’s best natural attractions, the Calanques are a series of small rivers with astonishing blue water and splendid cliffs.LuberonDuring the summer months, many people like to experience charming villages in Luberon. This region in central Provence took off as a tourist attraction after Peter Mayle published his books about life in Provence. With its large quantities of forests, fields of lavender (薰衣草), farmers markets and colorfully painted houses, you’ll soon see why Luberon is such a tourist attraction.DordogneThere is just so much to see and do in Dordogne, beginning with picture-postcard villages and castles. The scenery is pretty amazing, too, with the Dordogne River running through it. Dordogne also has some of the best ancient cave art in France. The walls of Lascaux feature mainly animals, which are a must-see.ParisAttracting more than 45 million visitors every year, Paris is the world’s most popular tourist attraction. Paris, the capital city of France, is just like a little “France”.

Many parents are freaked out (惊慌失措) about putting their easily distracted teenagers in charge of a fast-moving chunk (大块) of glass and steel. My wife refused to teach her, leaving the task to me.I’ve learned a few things. First, Mia didn’t know how to drive at all. She didn’t even know where to put the key. It was like watching a chimpanzee try to solve a puzzle. Worse, she couldn’t remember that D was for drive, and R meant reverse (倒车).Then came the road rules. Mia likes to sail past stop signs. I had to explain that “STOP means STOP”. Had she actually read the r ule book? “Yes,” she said, but she forgot most of it. “It was so boring.”Although I had been driving her around for her whole life, she hadn’t learned anything.Despite these things, I’ve also learned that I enjoy teaching her. I think I’m pretty good at it. I am much calmer than I thought I would be.I also enjoy the one-on-one time we have together. We have some good conversations. So far, we have covered her friends’ hairstyles and how stressed she feels after school. I enjoyed communicating with her.One Sunday evening, we were driving down a narrow back street, deep in conversation, when I realized that the car was moving quite fast. “SLOW DOWN!” I yelled, yanking (猛拉) the hand brake (手刹).We stopped the car and sat in the dark for a minute. “You can’t go that fast,” I said. “You don’t know enough yet.” I put my hand on her head, “I don’t want anything to happen to you.”“Me neither.” she said.“Okay, cool,” I said. “Let’s go.”she started the car and we headed back home.4. What can we know from the first four paragraphs?A. Mia was worried about driving.B. Mia didn’t get along with her mother.C. Mia was a beginner at driving.D. Mia was naturally good at driving.5. The author enjoys teaching Mia mainly because _____.A. it helps him be calmer in daily lifeB. he gets to know more about herC. it is more hands-on teachingD. he can help plan her future6. How did the author feel when Mia drove fast?A. Angry.B. Impatient.C. Concerned.D. Disappointed.7. What is the author’s main purpose of writing this article?A. To show parents how to teach driving.B. To describe what it’s like to have a teenage daughter.C. To prove teenagers can be easy to communicate with.D. To remind parents to value the time they spend with their kids.CNew law lets students sleep inWhen your alarm clock rings and you drag yourself out of bed, you probably wonder: Why on earth does school have to start so early?Fortunately, there is a new law to back you up―or better still, science.A law in California, passed on Oct 13, requires that public middle schools begin classes no earlier than 8:00 am and that high schools start no earlier than 8:30 am. The law will go into effect by July 1, 2022.Starting school at 8:00 or 8:30 in the morning may not sound like too big of a change, but it could mean one more hour of sleep for students who used to start school at 7:30 or even earlier.“The effect of that one hour is something they will be feeling as 40-year-old adults,” Sumit Bhargava, a sleep expert at Stanford University told The New York Times. He said that not having enough sleep can affect students’ mental health and increase the risk of getting fat and diabetes (糖尿病).In the short run, students’ school performances should improve almost immediately. Kyla Wahlstrom, a researcher at the University of Minnesota’s College of Education, found that students who have enough sleep are more alert (机敏的) in class and get better grades.Some might say that urging students to go to bed earlier could have been a much easier solution than changing the school timetable across an entire state. But according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, teenagers go through biologicalchanges when they enter puberty (青春期), which makes it difficult for them to fall asleep before 11: 00 pm. So when school starts at 8: 00 or earlier, they can hardly get the ideal 8.5-9.5 hours of sleep that experts suggest they need to do their best in the daytime.This is why when the new law came out, its author, Anthony Portanti no, said, “Generations of children will come to appreciate (感激) this historic day and our governor for taking bold action.8. When should public high schools start classes according to the California’s new law?A. No earlier than 7:30 am.B. No earlier than 8:00 am.C. No earlier than 8:30 am.D. No earlier than 9:00 am.9. What can we learn from Bhargava’s words?A. The amount of sleep people need changes with age.B. Lack of sleep affects adults more than children.C. Sleep problems are one of the leading causes of diabetes.D. Lack of sleep could lead to health problems.10. What do we know about teenagers’ sleep patterns?A. Less sleep is needed when they enter puberty.B. Ideally, they need eight hours of sleep a night.C. They may have difficulty falling asleep before 11:00 pm.D. They often wake up at midnight due to biological changes.11.Where does this passage probably come from?A. A textbook.B. An advertisement.C. A newspaper.D. A biography.D“Severe flooding in Venice that has left much of the Italian city under water is a direct result of climate change,” the mayor says. The highest water levels in the region in more than 50 years would leave a permanent mark, Venice Mayor Luigi Brugnaro tweeted. “Now the government must listen,” he added. “These are the effects of climate change. The cost will be high.”The waters in Venice peaked at 1.87m, according to the tide monitoring centre. Only once since official records began in 1923 has the tide been higher, reaching 1.94m in 1966. St Mark’s Square — one of the lowest parts of the city — was one of the worst hit areas. St Mark’s Basilica was flooded for the sixth time in 1,200 years, according to church records. Pierpaolo Campostrini, a member of St Mark’s council, said four of those floods had now occurred within the past 20 years.The mayor said the famous landmark had suffered grave damage. The crypt was completely flooded and there are fears of structural damage to the basilica’s columns. The city of Venice is made up of more than 100 islands inside a lagoon (濒海湖) off the north-east coast of Italy. Two people died on the island of Pellestrina, a thin strip of land that separates the lagoon from the Adriatic Sea. One of them was electrocuted (触电身亡) as he tried to start a pump in his home.Mr Brugnaro said the damage was huge and that he would declare a state of disaster, warning that a project to help prevent the Venetian lagoon suffering devastating floods must be finished soon. “The situation is dramatic. We ask the government to help us,” he sa id on Twitter, adding that schools would remain closed until the water level subsides. He also urged local businesses to share photosand video footage of the devastation, which he said would be useful when requesting financial help from the government.12. Why was St Mark’s Square one of the worst hit areas?A.Because it lied on the coast of the sea.B.Because it was in the low-lying area in Venice.C.Because the flood first flew through this place.D.Because it was a place where it rained most heavily.13. What does the underlined word“devastating ” mean?A. Slight.B. Urgent.C. Destructive.D. Unforgettable.14. What did Mr Brugnaro do to get the government’s support?A. He would declare a state of disaster.B. He would ask the schools to remain closed.C. He made a project to prevent the lagoon suffering floods.D. He called on local businesses to share information on social media.15. What can we learn from the passage?A. Two people died from drowning.B. It is the highest water level since being recorded.C. The flood has caused basilica’s columns being damaged.D. St Mark's Basilica has been flooded four times in the past20 years.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

单项选择In the movie, Mr. Bean always gets into awkward and absurd situations, ______ greatly amuses audiences around the world.A.whereB.whatC.thatD.which【答案】D【解析】考查定语从句。

句意：在这部电影中，Bean先生总是陷入尴尬并荒谬的处境，这极大地逗乐了世界各地的观众。

分析句子可知，___ greatly amuses audiences around the world是非限定性定语从句，指代整个主句，且在从句中做主语，应用关系代词which引导。

故选D。

单项选择－Would you like to go cycling with me?－I’d love to, but I need to have my bike ______ first.A.fixedB.to fixC.being fixedD.fixing【答案】A考查非谓语动词。

句意：——你想和我一起去骑自行车吗？——我想去，但是我需要先修理我的自行车。

have sth. done表示“某事被（别人）做”，过去分词作宾语补足语，说明宾语，此处宾语bike与have 是动宾关系，故选A。

单项选择－Where are the children? The school bus is leaving.－I wish they ______ always late.A.aren’tB.weren’tC.wouldn’t beD.hadn’t been【答案】B【解析】考查虚拟语气。

句意：——孩子们在哪里？校车就要离开了。

——我希望他们没有迟到。

Wish后的宾语从句，使用虚拟语气，根据前一句可知，“孩子们在哪里”是叙述现在的事情，因此推断“孩子们不要迟到”是与现在事实相反的虚拟语气，谓语动词用一般过去时。
