25．答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词The watch，指物，用关系代词which引导，which在从句中作主语。
26．答案 whever
解析 考查宾语从句。whever引导宾语从句，并在从句中作主语，故用主格。
27．答案 Hearing
解析 考查非谓语动词。Hearing this是现在分词短语作状语，其逻辑主语为the children，与分词动作hear之间是主动关系。

32．答案 surprised
解析 考查形容词。surprised but happy为形容词作状语。
33．答案 sit
解析 考查固定用法。d nthing but d别无选择只好做……，其中but后为省略了t的不定式。
