Question

On AIDS Day, the minister of Health Department demanded that the problems ______ paid special attention to.

A. referred to being         B. referred to be

C. refer to being          D. refer to be

Answer

B

【解析】

试题分析：考查固定短语和虚拟语气。句意：。refer to参考，查阅，提到，指的是，与problems是动宾关系，应该用过去分词作后置定语，排除C、D；referred to相当于定语从句which/that were referred to。表示命令、要求、建议的词order, command, request, require, demand, suggest等后面的宾语从句用虚拟语气，即should+动词原形，should可省略，这里的be前面省略了should，故选B。
