Question

【题目】As a result of the serious flood, two-thirds of the buildings in the area ______.

A．need to repair B．needs to repair

C．needs repairing D．need repairing

Answer 1

【答案】D

【解析】由于后半句的two-thirds接的名词the buildings作主语，the buildings是复数形式，因此谓语用复数，故排除B、C项；且need后面的宾语可以用动名词的主动式表示被动或者用不定式的被动式，need doing=need to be done。句意：因为严重的洪水，这个地区三分之二的房子需要修理。故选D项。
