Let'stalkaboutthedietinEurope500yearsago.Oneimportantfoodwasmeat.Europeansatemanykindsofmeat,includingbeef,lamb,goat,andpork.Ekandcheesemadefromthemilkofcowsandgoats.TheEuropeansateseveraldifferentgrains：Mostpeopleatewheat,andsomepeopleaterice,whichcamefirstfromAsia.

AftertheEuropeansreturnedtoEuropefromtheAmericas,therewasalsoabigchangeinthedietofpeopleinEuropeandtherestoftheworld.WhentheEuropeansreturnedtoEurope,theytookmanynewkindsoffoodbackfromtheAmericas.Theytookbackthevegetables,grains,andspicesthattheyfoundintheAmericas.Littlebylittle,peoplealloverEuropestartedusingthenewfoodsintheircooking,andthenthefoodsspreadaroundtheworldtoAfrica,theMiddleEastandAsia.

15.WorldsofTime

16.stillstill解析：本句意為“但是空氣污染，盡管它…是最危險(xiǎn)的，但也只是幾種攻擊最基本生活功能的污染方式之一?！憋@然，可知此空應(yīng)填“仍然”。

17.lookinglooking解析：與介詞for的固定搭配，意為“尋求…”，這里指的是尋求新的價(jià)值觀。所以此處應(yīng)填“l(fā)ooking”。

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

19.fastfast解析：由上一句句意“不耐心代表了年輕的腦力工作者們的特點(diǎn)?！笨芍?，本句“他們想…成名”中的空處應(yīng)填“快速地”。

20.ratherrather解析：此空所在句意為“用四個(gè)手指握筆而不是三個(gè)。”ratherthan表示“而不是”。

21.firstfirst解析：根據(jù)題意，作者想在這里做一個(gè)比較，而比較的對(duì)象是目的。這里作者僅僅給出了兩個(gè)目的，所以這里是和第一個(gè)目的進(jìn)行比較。故答案為first。

22.rationalrational解析：從文章的后面可以知道，顧客們已經(jīng)要結(jié)算了，認(rèn)為都買(mǎi)了該買(mǎi)的商品。但是售貨員在他們等著付賬的過(guò)程中巧妙的利用顧客們的購(gòu)物沖動(dòng)向他們推銷(xiāo)，而不是理性購(gòu)物。故答案為rational。

23.atat解析：某大學(xué)的教授，應(yīng)為“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案為介詞“at”。

24.inin解析：inturn意為“轉(zhuǎn)而，反過(guò)來(lái)”，此句意為“給他們講明這些小成功成為建立聲譽(yù)的基礎(chǔ)，而且從這些小成功開(kāi)始更重要的任務(wù)才能被完成?！薄?/p>

25.onon解析：focuson意為“集中于”，為固定短語(yǔ)。

26.C解析：本文均是在講述青少年的自殺問(wèn)題。

27.D解析：fib意為“撒小謊”。
