16.accordingaccording解析：此句意為“…一項(xiàng)個(gè)性與社會(huì)心理學(xué)的六月雜志的研究?！憋@然，空處應(yīng)填“根據(jù)”。

17.toto解析：besubjectedto為固定搭配，“使遭受，使服從”的意思，要學(xué)會(huì)跨過其他成分尋找主干。所以此處應(yīng)填介詞“to”。

18.happinesshappiness解析：根據(jù)上下文，日本年輕人更看重追求個(gè)人的幸福。所以此處應(yīng)填“happiness”。

19.againstagainst解析：guardagainst意為“防止，防范，警惕”，為固定短語，against也可以省略。

20.concernconcern解析：“concernfor”表示“對(duì)…關(guān)心”。所以此處應(yīng)填“concern”。

21.whowho解析：此空后的句子顯然為定語從句，修飾“Behaviorists”，所以應(yīng)填一個(gè)who，引導(dǎo)修飾人的定語從句。

22.referencereference解析：這三個(gè)分詞短語意為“執(zhí)行日常運(yùn)算、挖掘…材料、操作再生產(chǎn)設(shè)備”。顯然，“參考材料”最合適。

23.bringbring解析：通過前一句話“suchadreamerCanbebroughtbacktoearth．”中的brought可以知道，這里應(yīng)該填bring，表示“把…帶到”。故答案為bring。

24.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應(yīng)填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應(yīng)是“年輕的”。

25.likelylikely解析：前面所說的thepersonwhoisdown-to-earth與thepersonwhosebothfeetontheground大體是一類人，所以這里表達(dá)的意思是“很有可能就是一類人”。belikelytodo就表達(dá)了這種意思。故答案為likely。

26.A解析：由文章第二段“…intheThirdWorldtowardfamilysizeandadawningrealisationthatenvironmentaldegradation…”。

27.C解析：由短文倒數(shù)第二段可知美國(guó)只有四個(gè)州沒有importtaxes。美國(guó)一共50個(gè)州，所以應(yīng)該有46個(gè)有importtaxes。

28.D解析：“bitingone'snails”的意思是“一籌莫展”，通過后面的表述，“mostofherclientsspend$12to$50weekly，…”可以看出Spero并不是到了沒有顧客的地步，只是越來越少，所以他并沒有到達(dá)絕望的處境。故應(yīng)選D。

29.D解析：由第一段中的“Forsomeyears，startinginNewYork…”可知。

30.A解析：由第三段中所舉的GTE的例子可知“efficienttechnologyiscost-effective”。

31.B解析：文章第二段一開頭就說：“It'snotentirelyclearwhymedicinehasbeensoslowtobuildonAnderson'searlysuccess．”從時(shí)間上來看，Anderson采用基因療法的成功嘗試已經(jīng)是1990年的事情了，兩相對(duì)照，可見他的成功沒有讓醫(yī)學(xué)加速發(fā)展。因此正確答案為B。

32.D解析：由第四段第一句“However，MacDonaldandotherswarnaganistusinginsurancepoliciespurelyasaninvestment．”可知。

33.D解析：Stiglitz打算致力于發(fā)展中國(guó)家的發(fā)展是在書評(píng)四中提到的，書評(píng)四最后幾句“…setsoutforthenation’scapitaltoservehiscountryandimprovethelotofthedevelopingworld．”他打算改善發(fā)展中國(guó)家人民的命運(yùn)。所以本題應(yīng)選D。

34.C解析：由短文倒數(shù)第二段可知美國(guó)只有四個(gè)州沒有importtaxes。美國(guó)一共50個(gè)州，所以應(yīng)該有46個(gè)有importtaxes。

35.BB解析：由上一段段意可知，B放在最后一處最合適。

36.A解析：作者的態(tài)度從文章第一句話和最后一句話就可以明顯判斷出來。第一句話說基因療法是20世紀(jì)的偉大成就之一，最后一句話說“Everybodyrecognizesthatgenetherapyisaverygoodidea”，由此可見作者對(duì)基因療法持積極樂觀的態(tài)度。因此正確答案為A。

37.DD解析：由上下兩段綜合分析，只有D放在此處符合邏輯。

38.D解析：由D中Smithadds，“Investment-wise，King’sCrossisagoodbet．Thereisabigrentalmarkethereandpriceswillgoup．Therearestillcheaperpropertiesavailable，onetotwobedroomflatsinVictorianconversions，orex—councilproperties．Butpeopleareholdingontothemfordearfifeinthehopetheywillgoupinvalue．Ifyoufindone，itisworthinvestingin．”可以看出在King’sCross投資將會(huì)物有所值。所以此處答案為D。

39.C解析：由文中可知全球技術(shù)支持中心跟當(dāng)?shù)匦蘩淼甑膮^(qū)別在于，當(dāng)?shù)匦蘩淼晷矢?，地點(diǎn)近，態(tài)度好。題目問的是除了哪個(gè)選項(xiàng)以外，其他都是二者的不同。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

40.AA解析：由上下兩段可知，只有A放在此處可以使上下文銜接，意思順暢。

41.A短文賞析

A

這本書介紹了進(jìn)入21世紀(jì)后，氣候變化會(huì)帶來的各種后果和應(yīng)對(duì)措施。重點(diǎn)是說明全
