8. [全国高考·改编] "This really excites scientists," Carle Pieters, a scientist at Brown University, says, "because it means we have the chance to obtain information about how the moon ______ (construct)."

答案： is constructed
解析：根据it means和we have the chance可知，应用一般现在时；从句主语the moon和construct之间为被动关系，应用被动语态；且the moon为单数概念，谓语应用第三人称单数形式。故填is constructed。

9. [浙江新高考] And, as more children were born, more food ______ (need).

答案： was needed
解析：根据从句的were born可知，此处叙述过去的事情，应用一般过去时，且主句主语more food与need之间为被动关系，应用被动语态；food意为"食物"，在此处为不可数名词，谓语应用第三人称单数形式，故填was needed。

10. [浙江新高考·改编] One study in America found that students' grades ______ (improve) a little after the school introduced uniforms.

答案： improved
解析：分析句子成分可知，设空处在句中作宾语从句中的谓语，宾语从句中的时间状语从句after the school introduced uniforms为一般过去时，因此宾语从句也应用一般过去时。故填improved。

11. [全国高考] Sarah ______ (tell) that she could be Britain's new supermodel, earning a million dollars in the next year.

答案： has been told/was told
解析：根据句意可知，tell与主语Sarah之间为被动关系，应用被动语态。此处可理解为tell表示的动作发生在过去，对现在仍有影响，应用现在完成时的被动语态；也可理解为动作发生在过去，用一般过去时的被动语态。故填has been told/was told。

12. [北京高考] As it ______ (connect) things, your brain turns them into a story, and you get a dream.

答案： connects
解析：此处解释梦形成的过程，为客观介绍，所以要用一般现在时；主语it指代your brain，与connect之间是主动关系，且it是第三人称单数形式，所以从句的谓语动词也应用第三人称单数形式。故填connects。

13. [江苏高考] He hurried home, never once looking back to see if he ______ (follow).

答案： was being followed
解析：根据句意可知，follow与he之间为被动关系，应用被动语态。根据句中的hurried可知，此处表达"当时有没有人正在跟着他"，设空处时态应与主句谓语动词的时态呼应，由此可判断此处应用过去进行时。故填was being followed。

14. [全国高考] We ______ (hire) our bikes from the rental place at the South Gate. My bike was old...

答案： hired
解析：根据语境和was可知，此处描述过去的经历，故本句应用一般过去时。故填hired。

15. [全国高考] The artist was sure he would ______ (choose), but when he presented his masterpiece to the emperor's chief minister, the old man laughed.

答案： be chosen

16. [浙江新高考·改编] When the children are walking or ______ (cycle) to school on dark mornings, car drivers can easily see them.

答案： cycling
解析：设空处在从句中与walking由or连接的两个并列谓语动词，形式应与walking保持一致，故填cycling。

17. [天津高考·改编] I ______ (drive) down to London when I suddenly found that I was on the wrong road.

答案： was driving
解析：sb. was/were doing sth. when... did...为固定句型，意为"某人正在做某事，这时突然……"。因此，主句应用过去进行时。故填was driving。
