16.suchsuch解析：“poorposture，leaningtoo…tothedesk，using…”均是對characteristics的舉例說明，而舉例用英語說應(yīng)為“suchas”。

17.underunder解析：underguidance意為“在…指導(dǎo)下”，為固定短語。

18.sellingselling解析：關(guān)鍵是看and后面的buying。本句話的意思是“商家分析市場的供需情況?！惫蚀鸢笧閟elling。

19.themthem解析：本題考查代詞的用法，根據(jù)上下文，此處句意為“人們使用這些小玩意兒?！鄙衔囊呀?jīng)提到gadgets，所以這里用代詞“them”代替。

20.gripgrip解析：顯然，此空應(yīng)填一個動詞“握，拿”，英語中握筆用動詞grip。

21.waswas解析：此空顯然應(yīng)是句子的謂語成分，應(yīng)填動詞的過去式。

22.dividedivide解析：根據(jù)上下文語境，這里是“分為”，divide…upinto意為“把…劃分為”。所以此處應(yīng)填動詞“divide”。

23.FortunatelyFortunately解析：由本句句意“…可以看到有解決辦法的希望了。”可知，此空應(yīng)填“幸運的是”。

24.underunder解析：underguidance意為“在…指導(dǎo)下”，為固定短語。

25.bringbring解析：根據(jù)上下文，此處意思為給他們帶來快樂。帶來用動詞“bring”。所以此處應(yīng)填“bring”。

26.C解析：由文章第二段可知C不對，而A、B、D文中均提到了。

27.A解析：由A中將打算建“nighttimeeconomy”可以看出。所以此處答案為A。

28.A解析：由A中第二段第一句“Intheseniorschool，two-thirdsofthepupilsareboarders，andboardingisavailablefromtheageof11．”可知。

29.D解析：文章最后一段指出，“Congressshouldpasslegislation…，allowcustomerstooptoutofsuchdatacollection．a(chǎn)nd…．”，意思就是說國會應(yīng)該要求網(wǎng)站公示收集用戶隱私信息的政策，通過何種方式收集的，告訴用戶怎么才能避開這些信息收集以及怎么查閱所收集的信息等等內(nèi)容。optout的意思是“避開、避免”。故應(yīng)選D。

30.C解析：由短文倒數(shù)第二段可知美國只有四個州沒有importtaxes。美國一共50個州，所以應(yīng)該有46個有importtaxes。

31.A解析：由A中的第一段最后一句話“Atpresent,thePalaceisanelaboratemuseumthatpresentsthelargestandmostcompleteensembleoftraditionalarchitecture…”可知。

32.D解析：原文對應(yīng)信息是：“Eagertoboosttheirmagazinerankings，whicharebasedinpartonthetestscoresofenteringfreshmen．they’rethrowingmoreaidatsmarterkids——whethertheyneeditornot．”該句話說明“學校為了提高其雜志排名，就給那些比較聰明的孩子經(jīng)濟上給予較大的幫助，不管他們需不需要幫助”。由此可以看出，急需幫助的學生并不一定就能獲得幫助。所以A、B、C均不符合題意。所以本題應(yīng)選D。

33.AA解析：上一段最后一句“…suchasdrainingblood…”與A中的“Themassivewartimeblooddrives…”對應(yīng)。

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

35.C解析：文章開始就提出“WhatnewvaluesshouldAmericansadopt?”指出美國人應(yīng)該具有什么樣
