15.A

16.personperson解析：本句話(huà)的意思是“與此相反的一類(lèi)人是那些想入非非的人?！备鶕?jù)上下文的要求這里應(yīng)該填入man的同義詞。故答案為person。

17.fromfrom解析：“來(lái)自…的數(shù)據(jù)”，要用介詞“from”。所以此處應(yīng)填“from”。

18.closeclose解析：顯然，不好的習(xí)慣是“太靠近桌子”，故應(yīng)填“近”。

19.onon解析：此題也考查介詞的用法，在電話(huà)中交談，一般用onthephone。所以此處應(yīng)填介詞“on”。

20.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(yǔ)，應(yīng)填一個(gè)可引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句的詞。

21.concernconcern解析：“concernfor”表示“對(duì)…關(guān)心”。所以此處應(yīng)填“concern”。

22.withwith解析：endupwith意為“以…結(jié)束，以…告終”，為固定短語(yǔ)。

23.beingbeing解析：avoiddoingsth．意為“避免…”，avoid后必須跟名詞或動(dòng)名詞。beovercritical意為“過(guò)分挑剔的”。

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

25.worseworse解析：“the+比較級(jí)，the+比較級(jí)”，意為“越…越…，”根據(jù)上下文，本句句意為“身邊的小玩意兒越多，事情似乎就會(huì)變得越糟糕。”所以此處應(yīng)填“worse”。

26.A解析：從文章最后一段“Potentialhomebuyerswouldcheerforlowerinterestrates．Employerswouldn’tmindalittlefewerbubblesinthejobmarket…”可以看出，盡管經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)不好，但是還是有人能夠受益的，比如說(shuō)，想買(mǎi)房子的人認(rèn)為這種低利息，就業(yè)市場(chǎng)等等。故應(yīng)選A。

27.D解析：由D中的第一段“itreallyisnotmuchofasurprisethatitisnowconsideredbymanyoneofthetopfivemoviesofalltime．”可知。

28.D解析：fib意為“撒小謊”。

29.A解析：
