16.whosewhose解析：這是一個后置定語從句，用whose來引導(dǎo)，表示mind與dreamer的所屬關(guān)系。故答案為whose。

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

18.especiallyespecially解析：“Around1980many．Japanese，______youngpeople…”，“1980年左右許多日本人，尤其是年輕人…”，所以此處應(yīng)填“especially”。

19.werewere解析：考查被動語態(tài)的用法，注意分析句子成分。所以此處應(yīng)填“were”。

20.byby解析：由日本政府收集的數(shù)據(jù)?？疾楸粍诱Z態(tài)的用法，“由…”用介詞“by”。所以此處應(yīng)填“by”。

21.amongamong解析：此句意為“后一種觀點得到了許多支持者，尤其…教育家。”顯然，空處應(yīng)填“在…中”，介詞among即有此意。

22.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”。

23.differencedifference解析：顯然，這句話是在對老年人和年輕人寫字之間進行比較，而且由后半句中的"getbetterat…”可知，此空必為“不同的”。

24.lessless解析：由此空前面的“deterioratedsharply”可知此空應(yīng)填“更少的”，而不是“更多的”。

25.wherewhere解析：此題考查where引導(dǎo)的定語從句，修飾前面提到的plane，trainorbus。所以此處應(yīng)填關(guān)系副詞“where”。

26.B解析：由B內(nèi)容中的itisrenewable中“NuclearenergyfromUraniumisnotr
