16.towardtoward解析：作者要表達的意思是“我怎么才能對別人誠實?！庇⒄Z中表達“對某人…”一般是用介詞toward。故答案為toward。

17.towardtoward解析：作者要表達的意思是“我怎么才能對別人誠實?！庇⒄Z中表達“對某人…”一般是用介詞toward。故答案為toward。

18.whatwhat解析：顯然，此空后的句子應為"obscure”的賓語從句，而“isbeingwritten”中缺主語，可做主句的賓語、從句的主語的只有what。

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

20.whosewhose解析：此句意為“StephanieThomas，一位學習輔導老師，…發(fā)現(xiàn)已經(jīng)發(fā)表了…?！庇纱丝芍?，空處所填單詞必為whose，引導定語從句，修飾teacher。

21.drinkingdrinking解析：由本句句意“通過將污水和化學物質倒入河流和湖泊，我們已經(jīng)污染了我們的…水。”顯然，此空處應為“飲用”。

22.gradesgrades解析：此句意為“…他指出在主要大學里關控制評分標準及恢復不及格…的努力。”顯然，此空處應填“分數(shù)”。

23.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值觀。所以此處應填“l(fā)ooking”。

24.purposepurpose解析：從文中的第一句話“Themostobviouspurpose…”可以看出后面還有別的目的，而不是僅僅有最明顯的目的。故答案為purpose。

25.workwork解析：本句
