15.C

16.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他们不认为自己比别的不重要的人更好、更优秀。”这里比较的是down—to—earthpersons和别人。故答案为those。

17.gripgrip解析：显然，此空应填一个动词“握，拿”，英语中握笔用动词grip。

18.toto解析：“attributeto”意为“把某事归因于”，为固定搭配，所以此处应填“to”。

19.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。

20.rationalrational解析：从文章的后面可以知道，顾客们已经要结算了，认为都买了该买的商品。但是售货员在他们等着付账的过程中巧妙的利用顾客们的购物冲动向他们推销，而不是理性购物。故答案为rational。

21.SometimeSometime解析：通过对后面句子的分析，我们可以知道那些想入非非、飘飘欲仙的人有朝一日也是可以“双脚落地的”，那就是“sharpwordsfromteacher”，所以这里表示的是“有朝一日”，故答案为sometime。

22.waswas解析：此空显然应是句子的谓语成分，应填动词的过去式。

23.stillstill解析：本句意为“但是空气污染，尽管它…是最危险的，但也只是几种攻击最基本生活功能的污染方式之一。”显然，可知此空应填“仍然”。

24.FortunatelyFortunately解析：由本句句意“…可以看到有解决办法的希望了。”可知，此空应填“幸运的是”。

25.pollpoll解析：此句意为“Synovate市场研发公司的调查显示”，poll的意思为“民意调查”。因此答案为“poll”。

26.C解析：由全文可以推断，要指出犯罪率下降的确切原因是很困难的。

27.D解析：由D中的最后一段“andsoistodescribeitsimplyasamovieaboutgangsters．”可知。

28.B解析：由B中的第三段第二句话“NewYorkhasbecomeoneoftheworld'sbusiestportsandalsothefinancial，manufacturing，andtravelcenterofthecountry．”可知答案为B。

29.A解析：文章的主要目的是什么?短文介绍科学家在有关大脑结构方面的研究成果。B、C、D只是片面上的。所以本题应选A。

30.BB解析：该空缺下面的段落都是对每一个“myth”的揭示。谁来揭示呢?B项中提到牛津大学老龄化研究中心成立各个问题研究组。

31.C解析：由短文倒数第二段可知美国只有四个州没有importtaxes。美国一共50个州，所以应该有46个有importtaxes。

32.A解析：由A中最后一句“TheCollegehasanationalreputationforthequalityofitsdyslexiaprovision．”可知。
