15.(at)(the)Nextmeeting/(the)followingmeeting

16.suchsuch解析：“such…as”用来举例子。所以此处应填“such”。

17.accordingaccording解析：accordingto为“依据”，为固定短语，意为国的民意调查”。所以此处填according。

18.waswas解析：此空显然应是句子的谓语成分，应填动词的过去式。

19.ofof解析：deprivesb．ofsth．为固定短语，意为“剥夺某人的某东西(或某权利)”。

20.thatthat解析：此空之后的内容为suggests的内容，即此处应填that，引导宾语从句。

21.amongamong解析：此句意为“后一种观点得到了许多支持者，尤其…教育家。”显然，空处应填“在…中”，介词among即有此意。

22.atat解析：某大学的教授，应为“aprofessorat…university”，所以答案为介词“at”。

23.linklink解析：与37题对应，此处应填link，表明在“near-pointgripping”和“slow，illegiblewriting”之间存在联系。

24.butbut解析：这里表达的前后句意是一种转折关系。前面说“hemayhavedreams，”而后面“hedoesnotallowthemtoblockhisknowledge…”的意思却是“但是他也不会让这些梦想阻挡自己对什么是现实的理解。”故答案为but。

25.disposedispose解析：由前一句“但是这个问题因为我们的“一次性”技术而加剧了。”可知，此处应为“丢掉，扔掉”之意，即disposeof。

26.B解析：由文章倒数第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetailtothehead．”可知。

27.A解析：文章第一句话对用基因疗法治疗Ashanthi所患罕见疾病的成功给与了很高的评价，并在第一段未指出医生们对基因疗法寄予了极高的期望。因此正确答案为A。

28.C解析：由第三段最后一句“Lifeinsuranceisan…isnotsubjecttotaxes．incontrasttootherpersonalinvestments．”可知。

29.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案为C。

30.A解析：由A中的最后一句话“…withafictionalTVwitchbeingplayedbyanhonest—to—Godreallifewitch．”可知。

31.C解析：由C中第三段第一句“Regularhighstandardperformancesinmusicanddrama，publicspeakinganddebatingareimportantpreparationforadultlife．”可知，该学校很重视培养学生的语言天赋。

32.C解析：由C中“‘WillesdenGreenhasadiverserangeofpropertiesfrom1930ssemi-detachedhousestolargeVictorianpropertiesandnew—buildswhichattractallkindsofbuyers’，saysRichardChiti，salesmanageratestateagentsEllisandCo．”可以看出Wille
