56、现在句首，说明空格所在分句与下文之间的逻辑关系。选项中，unless表条件，意为“除非”；as作连词，表时间或原因，意为“当时；因为，由于"；lest表目的，意为“惟恐，以免”，如Heemphasizeditagainandagain,lestsheshouldforget.（他反复强调这一点，免得她忘了。）although表让步，意为“虽然，尽管”。根据文意，“苏美尔人崇拜代表繁衍、爱和战争的女神”与“她在地位上却明显低于男性的神”之间存在转折关系，因此选D。2精解本题考查介词用法辨析。空格所在部分存在一个形容词的比较级，即，lowerthan.。空格处的介词和status搭配，表示“在地位方面”。in常用在形容词后，表示“在方面”,如Shewasnotlackingincourage.（她并不缺乏勇气。）acountryrichinminerals（矿藏丰富的国家）。因此Bin为正确项。其它选项都可与形容词连用。on表示“影响到”，如Heshardonhiskids.（他对自己的孩子很严厉。）with表示“关于，对于”，如Becarefulwiththeglasses.（小心这些玻璃杯。）Areyoupleasedwiththeresult?（你对结果满意吗？）w
