16.threatenthreaten解析：由33題解析可以知道此空一定為“威脅”之意。

17.paperpaper解析：由前一句“…arenowpaperthrowaways．”可知，“不久以后我們將穿由紙制作的衣服。”

18.thoughthough解析：參見47題解析，由本句句意“…更便宜，…它的95%的部件仍可以使用。”可知，此空處應填“盡管，即使”，即eventhough。

19.themthem解析：本題考查代詞的用法，根據上下文，此處句意為“人們使用這些小玩意兒。”上文已經提到gadgets，所以這里用代詞“them”代替。

20.thatthat解析：此空后面的句子為suggesting的內容，即應為其賓語從句，所以此空處應填引導賓語從句的詞，即that。

21.accordingaccording解析：此句意為“…一項個性與社會心理學的六月雜志的研究。”顯然，空處應填“根據”。

22.thoughthough解析：本句話的意思是“盡管知道顧客們可能不知道自己為什么買了這些商品，但是賣家卻知道怎么去做。”故答案為though。

23.suchsuch解析：“poorposture，leaningtoo…tothedesk，using…”均是對characteristics的舉例說明，而舉例用英語說應為“suchas”。

24.dodo解析：分析見上題。故答案為do。

25.callscalls解析：此句意為“他把這種缺乏禮節的行為稱作是一種無意識的無禮”。call+雙賓語結構，以為“把…稱為”，所以此處填“calls”。

26.B解析：文中提到，在一家企業中，最昂貴的資源是人力資源。

27.A解析：anomaly意為“反常，奇怪”。

28.B解析：由B內容中的itisrenewable中“NuclearenergyfromUraniumisnotrenewable．”可知答案為B。

29.D解析：由整篇短文的主旨“低鹽并不適于所有人”可知，此處“eventheveryvocal‘lowsalt’exponent”意為“即使是強力推薦的‘低鹽’”。

30.D解析：在第三段中女主人公意識到也許在四點的服務的原因是經過精心策劃的而不是隨意粗魯的習慣，假期小費從隨意的一句謝謝發展成為黑社會的保護勒索，所以作者是被迫的給假期小費的。因此正確答案為D。

31.D解析：由D中的“ValparaisoUniversitycombinesliberalartswithprofessionalstudiesandpromotesservicetoothers”可知。

32.D解析：根據這篇文章，普遍認為大腦的區別由什么因素引起的?短文第三段倒數第二句話說“Wetendtothinkthat，istheinfluenceofsocietythatproducesthesedifferences．”即我們認為社會的影響造成了這些區別。A、B、c均不符合題意。所以本題應選D。

33.BB解析：由下一段第—句“Thepoker-lovingLouis-Dreyfusknew…”可知此空處填B最合適，因為“Louis-Dreyfus，scionof…”必定在下一段之前邏輯上才講得通。

34.C解析：由C中的第一段“Themonastery—likepalace…wasthereligiousandpoliticalcenterofoldTibetandthewinterpalaceofDalaiLamas．”可知。

35.C解析：由第一段可知NAAFA認為肥胖無害，故A項是錯誤的。B項文章中未提到。第一段倒數第二句話說到基因決定人的胖瘦，故C項是正確的。NAAFA只是認肥胖對人體無害，并沒有說有好處，故D項是錯誤的。

36.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案為C。

37.A解析：書評一中提到Stig
