16.whatwhat解析：解析同上。這里是一個名詞性從句，what在句中做主語。故答案為what。

17.thatthat解析：此空后的內(nèi)容為maintain的內(nèi)容，即此空后的句子為maintain的賓語，應填一個可引導賓語從句的詞。

18.asas解析：such…as意為“這樣的…如”。此空后為并列的三個分詞短語，即“如”后跟的例舉事項。

19.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?！?/p>

20.somesome解析：這里需要填寫的是商品的名稱，就是說擺在出口結(jié)算處的那些小商品。泛指時用some。故答案為some。

21.sellingselling解析：關鍵是看and后面的buying。本句話的意思是“商家分析市場的供需情況?！惫蚀鸢笧閟elling。

22.wherewhere解析：此題考查where引導的定語從句，修飾前面提到的plane，trainorbus。所以此處應填關系副詞“where”。

23.farfar解析：能修飾too的副詞只有far或much。

24.toto解析：besubjectedto為固定搭配，“使遭受，使服從”的意思，要學會跨過其他成分尋找主干。所以此處應填介詞“to”。

25.toto解析：talkto的意思是“和某人聊天”，talk這里不及物動詞，后面需要接一個介詞。在從句中介詞不能省略。作者這里要表達的意思是“和那些誠實的平易近人的人聊天是很愜意的?！惫蚀鸢笧閠o。

26.B解析：由短文第一段中的“Andaccordingtolegend，therewasaTurkishrulerwho…ToPayforthewearandtearonhisteeth”。

27.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。故應選C。

28.C解析：由第三段中的“Forthosecompaniesusingtechnology，theperdocumentcostofinformationprocessingisonlyafractionofwhatitwasafewyearsago．”可知。

29.A解析：由A中的第一句話“‘Bewitched’isapainfullyembarrassingremakeoftheclassicTVsitcomthatranonABCfrom1964-1972．”可知。

30.A解析：由本文倒數(shù)第二段可知，B、C、D均正確，只有A不對。

31.D解析：第四段提到基因療法遭受的一起挫折——一個病人因接受基因療法而死亡；接著講專家擔心運動員利用基因在比賽中作弊會進一步tarnish這一領域，從上下文邏輯推理，應該是“有損，玷污”這一類的意思，因此正確答案為D。

32.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’”。

33.B解析：有關商業(yè)方面的報道都是對Stiglitz的論點的支持信息?！啊璭speciallywhenthebusinesspageisfullofstoriesaboutwhite——collarcrimeandthestockmarketseemsstuckinaperpetualrut．．．”所以本題應選B。
