Which 解析：该题考查 主语从句的用法 。根据 .is the creative imagination of the writer 可知 ，_ makes the book so extraordinary 是一个主语从句，作 is 的主语。同时，从句中， makes 缺少主语，因此选择 B项（ what 在名词性从句中充当主语、宾语或者表语） 。 答案： B 32. -So what is the procedure? -All the applicants _ before a final decision is made by the authority. A. inte
11、rview B. are interviewing C. are interviewed D. are being interviewed 解析：该题考查 被动语态 。 applicant 申请人和 interview 面试 /采访之间是被动关系，因此排斥 A和 B项。根据问句，“那么，程序是怎样的？”可知，整个过程还尚未开始， D 项是现在进行时，意为正在发生因此排除 D 项。 答案： C 33.

13、. have booked B. booked C. book D. had booked 解析：该题考查 if 引导的虚拟条件句的用法 。根据 we couldnt be standing here in a queue 可知，该句是 if 引导的虚拟条件句。根据 earlier 可知，从句是对过去的虚拟，对过去虚拟时，从句应该用 had done 结构，因此选择 D 项。 答案： D 35. -You neednt take an umbrella.
