本题要求根据句子的语境和时态，用括号内动词的正确形式填空，主要考查现在进行时的用法，其结构是“be + 动词的现在分词形式”。需要根据主语的人称和数来确定be动词的正确形式，再结合动词的现在分词变化规则写出动词的现在分词形式。
1. “What _ (happen) in different time zones around the world right now?” 中“right now”表示现在，句子用现在进行时，主语“what”视为单数，be动词用is，happen的现在分词是happening，所以填is happening。
2. “What _ people _ (do) in different places?” 同样用现在进行时，主语“people”是复数，be动词用are，do的现在分词是doing，故填are; doing。
3. “It's 8 p.m. in Chongqing, China. Some people _ _ (rush) to get home from work.” 描述此刻正在进行的动作，用现在进行时，主语“some people”是复数，be动词用are，rush的现在分词是rushing，所以是are rushing。
