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

17.ofof解析：beofthesame…意為“是一樣…”，此句意為“…在正確的指導下，他們能繼續(xù)學習，繼續(xù)通過干許多一樣復雜的工作而獲得多樣性?！?/p>

18.FortunatelyFortunately解析：由本句句意“…可以看到有解決辦法的希望了?！笨芍?，此空應(yīng)填“幸運的是”。

19.atat解析：此題考固定搭配，atone'sdisposal，意為“任某人自由支配、使喚”。所以此處應(yīng)填介詞“at”。

20.rewardreward解析：通篇文章均是在講報酬與創(chuàng)造性的關(guān)系，此句意為“如果孩子們知道他們在為…工作，…?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)填“報酬”。

21.workwork解析：本句意為“我們以前已經(jīng)嘗試過，但是不…。”顯然，此空處應(yīng)填“奏效，起作用”，英語中表達這一含義最地道的詞就是work。

22.complycomply解析：此處句意為“他們會很懊惱的服從”，表示服從，遵從的短語是complywith。所以此處應(yīng)填“comply”。

23.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他們不認為自己比別的不重要的人更好、更優(yōu)秀?！边@里比較的是down—to—earthpersons和別人。故答案為those。

24.byby解析：此空所在短句意為“報酬經(jīng)常毀掉創(chuàng)造性，…鼓勵依賴他人的認可和禮物?！憋@然，空處應(yīng)填“通過”，在英語中介詞by即可表達此意。

25.knowledgeknowledge解析：前面講商家正確的分析市場的供需信息，知道是什么因素影響顧客的購買欲望。這就是他們利用的信息知識。故答案為knowledge。

26.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。

27.A解析：pressing意為“緊迫的，急迫的”。

28.AA解析：由此空上下文可以看出，A填入使上下兩段意思銜接。

29.A解析：由A中的最后一句話“…takeonaneconomy-wideperspectivetodrawlessonsforagriculture，trade，landuseandtaxpolicy．”可知。

30.A解析：從文章第二段倒數(shù)第一句話“…andmanysaytheyremainoptimisticabouttheeconomy'slong-termprospects…．”可以看出，人們對現(xiàn)在的經(jīng)濟形勢并不擔心，相反他們認為從長遠的角度來看，這種情況還是比較好的。故應(yīng)選A。

31.AA解析：只有A放在此處才能與上一段意思連貫。

32.C解析：Stiglitz在經(jīng)濟學領(lǐng)域享有的盛譽，C中“themostprominentandhisemergence”，“acelebratedtheoristwhowasawardedthe2001NobelPrize…”等詞都可以看出他的杰出貢獻。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

33.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，即特別的勞工防護法并沒有保護婦女的權(quán)益，故B項正確。A項與作者的觀點明顯相悖，所以不正確。C項從文中不能推知，故不正確。文中沒有提到男性工人的保護問題，故D項也不正確。

34.B解析：本文第一句提到“TodayTVaudiencesallovertheworldareaccustomedtothesightofAmericanastronautsintip-topcondition,withfairhair,crew-cuts,goodteethand…”。

35.A解析：由短文第一段最后一句“…managersandprofessionalsspendmorethanhalfoftheirtimeincommunicatingwitheachother．”可知，作者引用Straussmann的話主要是為了表明交流能力的重要性。

36.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。

37.B解析：由第四段中的“Thehorsesarelessaffectedthanamanwouldbe，andwhentheelectriceelshaveexhaustedthemselves，theycallbecaughtwithoutdanger．”可知。

38.A解析：從第二段前兩句話可以看出，婦女被以能力和需要的理由勸離工廠，故A項正確。沒有足夠的工作給老兵不是由限制婦女工作時間的法律造成的，所以B項不正確。C項文中沒有提及。根據(jù)文章第三段可知婦女的健康不是改善了，而是下降了，故D項也不正確。

39.D解析：書評一中的“…h(huán)eignoressomekeyargumentsinfavorofthemarket…”，書評二中的“Whilepartsofthisbookaredisappointinglyshallow…”，書評三種的“Stiglitz，58，ishardlythefirstpersontoaccusetheIMF…”都有提到
