16.productionproduction解析：從前一句話“Themanufacturersgobeyondonlytellingconsumersabouttheirproducts．”可以看出，一方面廣告要介紹自己的產(chǎn)品，而第二個目的就是賣掉自己的產(chǎn)品。所以這里作者想要表達(dá)的意思是“廣告要使得顧客有一種購買的欲望去購買自己的產(chǎn)品。”故答案為production。

17.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。

18.thatthat解析：參見32題解析，idea與bigachievementsrarelycomeeasilyandquickly是同位語，故此空應(yīng)填that，引導(dǎo)同位語從句。

19.linklink解析：與37題對應(yīng)，此處應(yīng)填link，表明在“near-pointgripping”和“slow，illegiblewriting”之間存在聯(lián)系。

20.beingbeing解析：avoiddoingsth．意為“避免…”，avoid后必須跟名詞或動名詞。beovercritical意為“過分挑剔的”。

21.af
