14.Poststations

15.A

16.olderolder解析：grow只能是年齡越來越大。

17.muchmuch解析：此空處應(yīng)為“太多的”。

18.normalnormal解析：根據(jù)上下文可以判斷此處句意為“很正常的事情”，因此此處應(yīng)填“normal”。

19.boughtbought解析：本句的前一句話說“顧客認(rèn)為他們需要一些他們其實(shí)不需要的商品。”這就是廣告的作用。但是買完之后，“他們卻不知道當(dāng)時(shí)為什么買了這種商品?！边@里是被動(dòng)的句式。故答案為bought。

20.thatthat解析：此空后面的句子為suggesting的內(nèi)容，即應(yīng)為其賓語從句，所以此空處應(yīng)填引導(dǎo)賓語從句的詞，即that。

21.toto解析：revertto意為“重想，重提”，此句意為“如果你經(jīng)常提到‘我們以前已經(jīng)試著這樣做了，但是不管用’就會(huì)很快地挫傷這種好問的頭腦”。

22.whichwhich解析：由此句句子成分分析，此空以后的應(yīng)為定語從句，修飾characteristics，所以此空應(yīng)填which，引導(dǎo)定語從句。

23.itit解析：本句意為“‘污染’意思是弄臟——表層土或什么東西，通過引進(jìn)雜質(zhì)，這使…不健康或不干凈?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)指topsoilorsomething，因?yàn)榍懊嬉殉霈F(xiàn)，所以用it來代替。

24.therebythereby解析：本句句意為“我們也正在污染海洋，殺死了魚類，…剝奪了我們那無價(jià)的食物供應(yīng)?！憋@然，此空前后為因果關(guān)系，而且depriving前不能用so或其他表因果關(guān)系的連詞，而只能用介詞thereby。

25.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”

26.A解析：“這些區(qū)別”指的是什么?短文第五段主題句說“Butitisn'tallthateasytoexplaintheactualdifferencesbetweenskillsofmenandwomenonthisbasis．”即在此基礎(chǔ)上解釋兩性技能的區(qū)別并不是很容易的事。由此可見，“這些區(qū)別”指的是兩性技能。所以本題應(yīng)選A。

27.C解析：文中第一段提到“Butsuchbehavioralstudiescannotdistinguishbetweentwocompetingtheoriesofwhysleepisgoodforthememory．”所以他們對(duì)為什么睡眠對(duì)記憶有好處持有不同的觀點(diǎn)，故應(yīng)選C。

28.C解析：由全文的語氣來看，均是在解釋、闡述事情，而不是descriptive或narrative，更不是critic。

29.B解析：根據(jù)第三段和第四段的論述，我們可以得知作者的總體看法，即特別的勞工防護(hù)法并沒有保護(hù)婦女的權(quán)益，故B項(xiàng)正確。A項(xiàng)與作者的觀點(diǎn)明顯相悖，所以不正確。C項(xiàng)從文中不能推知，故不正確。文中沒有提到男性工人的保護(hù)問題，故D項(xiàng)也不正確。

30.FF解析：第一個(gè)“myth”認(rèn)為隨著人口老齡化的增長，西方國家的醫(yī)療體系會(huì)癱瘓。研究中的一位人口統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)家指出問題的關(guān)鍵是要建成靈活自由的醫(yī)療服務(wù)結(jié)構(gòu)。

31.B解析：由短文第三段第一句“Incometaxesarethemainsourceoffederalrevenues．”。

32.C解析：越來越多的人贊成Stiglitz的觀點(diǎn)，批評(píng)自由貿(mào)易和全球化，從“Suchclaimsarenolongercredible，forStiglitzispartofasmallbutgrowinggroupofeconomists，sociologistsandpoliticalscie
