25. It is reported that many a new house ______ at present in the disaster area.  
A. are being built     B. were being built
C. was being built     D. is being built

A. wear  B. wears  C. has worn  D. have worn
答案：B
解析：考查主谓一致和时态。首先the only one of …. 为先行词时，定语从句修饰的是one，即one是主语，而非后面的复数women，根据主谓一致的原则，谓语动词应该用复数，排除A，D。另外，从“is”可以看出句子是要表示一种习惯，因此要用一般现在时，排除C，故选A
