16.poorpoor解析：此句意為“但是很容易通過給…表現(xiàn)報酬或創(chuàng)造對報酬太…的期望而扼殺創(chuàng)造性?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)填“劣拙的，不好的”。

17.unlikeunlike解析：根據(jù)下文，以日本學(xué)生與美國和韓國的作對比，日本的學(xué)生不像韓國和美國的學(xué)生一樣。所以此處應(yīng)填“unlike”。

18.populationpopulation解析：由下一句“越來越多的人正在制造更多的垃圾。”可知，此處應(yīng)指“膨脹的人口”，即explodingpopulation。

19.ofof解析：beofthesame…意為“是一樣…”，此句意為“…在正確的指導(dǎo)下，他們能繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)，繼續(xù)通過干許多一樣復(fù)雜的工作而獲得多樣性。”

20.fromfrom解析：keepsth．fromdoingsth．意為“防止某事…”，為固定短語。

21.butbut解析：此句意為“30歲的人表現(xiàn)出非常不同的握筆方式，…超過40歲的人都統(tǒng)一用三個手指握筆?！憋@然，此空處表轉(zhuǎn)折。

22.whosewhose解析：此句意為“StephanieThomas，一位學(xué)習(xí)輔導(dǎo)老師，…發(fā)現(xiàn)已經(jīng)發(fā)表了…?！庇纱丝芍?，空處所填單詞必為whose，引導(dǎo)定語從句，修飾teacher。

23.onon解析：focuson意為“集中于”，為固定短語。

24.whichwhich解析：由37題解析可知此空應(yīng)為一個引導(dǎo)定語從句的詞，即which，其后的定語修飾“several(typesofcontamination)”。

25.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”。

26.D解析：deforestation意為“濫伐森林”。

27.B解析：由B中的后面部分“Themostimportantconstructions…HeavenKitchen，…othersofhistoricinterestandscenicbeauty?！笨芍?。

28.C解析：文章第三段指出“ItisfarmoredifficultforAmericanstoacceptsharedsacrificeforthecommongoodandwell-beingoftheentirecountry．”，接著作者給出一個例子，證明美國人不會為了國家的利益而放棄個人的利益。故應(yīng)選C。

29.C解析：本文第二段中提到“…becausealltheastronautshavecontractswithanAmericanmagazineunderconditionsforbiddinganyunauthorizeddisclosuresabouttheirprivatelives．”

30.B解析：由第四段第二句“Thegovernmentestimatesthat95millionpeoplestillqualifyforshotsunderthevoluntaryrestrictionsannouncedlastweek．”中可以知道大約有九千五百萬人有資格注射疫苗。根據(jù)第四段第三句：“That’snearlytwicethenumberofdosesthatclinicswillhaveonhand，butonly60millionAmericansseekoutshotsinanormalyear．”和前一句可以推斷出美國現(xiàn)有大約四千七百萬份流感疫苗庫存，由此可推斷出美國至少還有四千七百多萬有資格注射疫苗的人無法得到注射。因此正確答案為B。

31.A解析：由A中的disadvantage中最后一條內(nèi)容“Waterqualityandquantit
