16.toto解析：“shift”意為“轉(zhuǎn)變”，“從…到…的轉(zhuǎn)變”應(yīng)該用介詞“to”。所以此處應(yīng)填“to”。

17.inin解析：inturn意為“轉(zhuǎn)而，反過(guò)來(lái)”，此句意為“給他們講明這些小成功成為建立聲譽(yù)的基礎(chǔ)，而且從這些小成功開(kāi)始更重要的任務(wù)才能被完成。”。

18.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(guò)其他成分尋找主干。所以此處應(yīng)填介詞“to”。

19.losinglosing解析：根據(jù)上下文的意思，很多年輕一代的日本人已經(jīng)不再尊重父母，不再對(duì)家庭有責(zé)任感，所以這里用。losing表示“漸漸失去了”。所以此處應(yīng)填“l(fā)osing”。

20.withoutwithout解析：此處意為年輕人更喜歡沒(méi)有重大責(zé)任的簡(jiǎn)單工作。所以此處應(yīng)填“without”。

21.whatwhat解析：此題考查what引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句。要注意分析句子中的成分，此空為listento后的賓語(yǔ)。所以此處應(yīng)填引導(dǎo)詞“what”。

22.takestakes解析：要注意時(shí)態(tài)，這里意為“占據(jù)”，所以所以此處應(yīng)填“takes”。

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

24.thosethose解析：文章中提到“16-19歲之間的日本青年跟25-29歲之間的青年對(duì)比”，這里缺少代詞，替代“Japaneseyouth”。所以此處應(yīng)填“those”

25.accordingaccording解析：accordingto意為“根據(jù)”，為固定短語(yǔ)，本句句意為“根據(jù)對(duì)…的嚴(yán)格調(diào)查，…?！?/p>

26.C解析：由C中的第一段最后一句話“…occupyingabuildingspaceof90thousandsquareme
