【详解】考查虚拟语气。

句意：电子商务公司正在帮助陷入财务困境的小企业获得贷款，否则它们将难以筹集到这些贷款。

根据句意可知，otherwise引导的短语或句子有时相当于一个虚拟条件句，在句中otherwise引导的短语与过去事实相反，则时态用
would(not)+have done，故选D。

15. .His tired face suggested that he ________ really tired after the long walk.
A. had been
B. was
C. be
D. should be
参考答案：
B
16. She is looking forward as much to his return as he himself to_______her.
A. have seen
B. seeing
C. see
D. seen
参考答案：
B
考查固定搭配。

该句存在省略,完整句子为：She is looking forward as much to his return as he himself (is looking forward) to seeing her.即句中as引导的比较状语从句省略了谓语is looking forward (to),而该短语中to为介词,后面接名词/动名词,所以用seeing.它刚好也和前面的名词短语his return一样,都是(look forward) to的宾语.

In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras（交响乐团）. It has became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival. Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the
universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing, some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
60. What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning?
A. To bring Europe together again.
B. To honor heroes of World War II.
C. To introduce young theatre groups.
D. To attract great artists from Europe.
61. Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?
A. They owned a public house there.
B. They came to take up a challenge.
C. They thought they were also famous.
D. They wanted to take part in the festival.
62. Who joined the “Fringe” after it appeared?
A. Popular writers.
B. University students.
C. Artists from around the world.
D. Performers of music and dance.
63. We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival ________.
A. has become a non-official event
B. has gone beyond an art festival
C. gives shows all year round
D. keeps growing rapidly

London—Having first played together as teenagers, Hsieh Su-wei and Peng Shuai won their first Grand Slam title with a 7-6(1), 6-1 victory Saturday over Australian duo Ashleigh Barty and Casey Dellacqua in the women’s doubles final at Wimbledon.
Hsieh became the first player from Taiwan to win a Grand Slam title while Peng gave the Chinese mainland its first doubles title at a major in seven years.
“It’s very special because I don’t think tennis is popular in Taiwan, ”Hsieh said. “We didn’t see many media during this tournament. We’re very proud we can win this tournament together with my good friend. It’s our first title, for Taiwan, so I think it’s a big thing in Taiwan. ”
The pair, who are both 27, played a few tournaments together as amateurs but ended their partnership after turning professional. After a seven-year hiatus, Hsieh asked Peng at the 2008 US Open if she would be up for a renewed(重建的)association.
The duo reunited by the end of that year 2008 and won their first 11 matches, claiming titles in Bali and Sydney. They lost their opening-round match in the 2009 Australian Open quarter finals against Serena and Venus Williams but now have six titles together.
Both Peng and Hsieh play two-handed shots on both sides, like Marion Bartoli, who won the Wimbledon singles title on Saturday.
“It’s probably th e first time two-handed players win the singles and the doubles, ”Peng said. Peng and Hsieh said they opted for this unorthodox style of play because they were too small to hold their rackets with one hand when they were kids.
24. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Two Chinese girls won the women’s doubles final at Wimbledon Tennis Championships.
B. Two Chinese girls cooperated again and succeeded.
C. Friendship and cooperation between two Chinese girls brought them to success.
D. The first player from Taiwan won a Grand Slam title.
25. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. Not many Taiwan media turned up at the tournament.
B. Hsieh Su-wei and Peng Shuai lost their opening-round match in the 2009 Australian Open quarter finals.
C. Peng Shuai and Hsieh Su-wei chose two-handed style of play as they liked to do so.
D. Hsieh Su-wei and Peng Shuai are the same age.
26. The underlined word“hiatus”in the fourth paragraph most probably means .
A. cooperation
B. separation
C. training
D. expectation
27. The author writes this passage to.

B. tell us to learn from the two Chinese girls
C. encourage us to play tennis
D. inform us of the success of the two Chinese girls at Wimbledon Tennis Championships
