16.happinesshappiness解析：根據(jù)上下文，日本年輕人更看重追求個(gè)人的幸福。所以此處應(yīng)填“happiness”。

17.complycomply解析：此處句意為“他們會(huì)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”。

18.sellingselling解析：關(guān)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。”故答案為selling。

19.acrossacross解析：getacross意為“使(觀點(diǎn)等)被理解或接受，講清自己的意思”，此句意為“給他們講清巨大的成功不會(huì)輕易、快速地到來很重要?！?/p>

20.whowho解析：此空后的句子顯然為定語從句，修飾“Behaviorists”，所以應(yīng)填一個(gè)who，引導(dǎo)修飾人的定語從句。

21.andand解析：這三個(gè)分詞短語是并列的，故中間的連詞只能用and。

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)為都買了該買的商品。但是售貨員在他們等著付賬的過程中巧妙的利用顧客們的購物沖動(dòng)向他們推銷，而不是理性購物。故答案為rational。

23.accordingaccording解析：accordingto意為“根據(jù)”，為固定短語，本句句意為“根據(jù)對…的嚴(yán)格調(diào)查，…?！?/p>

24.amongamong解析：此句意為“后一種觀點(diǎn)得到了許多支持者，尤其…教育家?！憋@然，空處應(yīng)填“在…中”，介詞among即有此意。

25.byby解析：由日本政府收集的數(shù)據(jù)。考查被動(dòng)語態(tài)的用法，“由…”用介詞“by”。所以此處應(yīng)填“by”。

26.C解析：由文章第二段可知C不對，而A、B、D文中均提到了。

27.B解析：文中提到的方案有助于存錢，但這樣的方案并不適于每一個(gè)人，然后給出了其中的一個(gè)原因，來說明對于低收入和中等收入的家庭來講，選擇其他投資方式會(huì)比這種方式好。由此可猜出詞義。所以本題應(yīng)選B。

28.CC解析：接下來講的是人體的免疫系統(tǒng)與毒藤之間的關(guān)系。毒藤會(huì)使人產(chǎn)生什么樣的反應(yīng)，該空緊接的就是毒藤過敏反應(yīng)時(shí)如何產(chǎn)生的。“Here'showthepoisonivyresponseoccurs．”一句承上啟下。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

29.D解析：由文章最后一段中的“Thepositivesideofitistherearebetterproducts—they'recheaperandmoreflexible．”可知。

30.D解析：由短文最后一段中的“Butnewmaterialshavenoimpactuntiltheyaremadeintoproducts．．．willdeterminethesuccessorfailureofacountryinthecomingfuture．”。

31.B解析：第一段中，作者說自己想保存文件，但是光標(biāo)不動(dòng)了，死機(jī)了。只有把電池拔出強(qiáng)行關(guān)機(jī)，所以排除A，D。C中說電腦拒絕工作，不合題意。所以本題應(yīng)選B。

32.C解析：這個(gè)題考察的是對后面幾段的歸納。首先在第三段開始“Dr．MaquetusedanelectronicdevicecalledPET…theypracticedataskduringtheday，andastheysleptduringthefollowingnight．”這是一種對比性的研究方法。后來的第四段最后“…theirresponsetimeswhentheywokeupwereevenquickerthanwhentheywenttosleep．”也采用了對比的分析研究，故應(yīng)選C。

33.D解析：文章的第一段最后一句話“Evenwhenanti-academicarthistorians…，Botticelli'sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste，…”，就算當(dāng)時(shí)很多正統(tǒng)的藝術(shù)風(fēng)格被批判，波提切利的作品也沒有引起重視，認(rèn)為他的作品不隨人們的口味，既滿足不了專業(yè)人士的品位，也不能滿足業(yè)余人士的欣賞要求。這里的under
