12.Teachersnursessecretaries

13.A

14.B

15.Manyweeks．

16.againstagainst解析：guardagainst意为“防止，防范，警惕”，为固定短语，against也可以省略。

17.readyready解析：顾客来到结算处，说明他们准备好了要付账。bereadyto的意思是“准备好了做某事”。故答案为ready。

18.whosewhose解析：这是一个后置定语从句，用whose来引导，表示mind与dreamer的所属关系。故答案为whose。

19.killingkilling解析：本句意为“通过无控制地使用杀虫剂，人类已经污染了土地，…野生动物。”显然，此空处应填“杀害”，但不能填kill，因为英语中无连词时不可能有两个谓语，故应填killing，killingthewildlife是现在分词做伴随状语。

20.accordingaccording解析：此句意为“…一项个性与社会心理学的六月杂志的研究。”显然，空处应填“根据”。

21.dividedivide解析：根据上下文语境，这里是“分为”，divide…upinto意为“把…划分为”。所以此处应填动词“divide”。

22.lessless解析：由此空前面的“deterioratedsharply”可知此空应填“更少的”，而不是“更多的”。

23.asas解析：此处为因果关系，意为“因为许多人没有…”，因此此处应填填连词“as”。

24.boughtbought解析：本句的前一句话说“顾客认为他们需要一些他们其实不需要的商品。”这就是广告的作用。但是买完之后，“他们却不知道当时为什么买了这种商品。”这里是被动的句式。故答案为bought。

25.whatwhat解析：这句话的意思是“这就是商家和卖者希望顾客们做的事情”，what引导的是一个表语从句，故答案为what。

26.D解析：由短文第二段中的“…showedthatthosewithnormalbloodpressureunderwentnochangeatallwhenplacedonanextremelylow-saltdiet，…”可知。

27.D解析：选项A意思不准确，文中提到公立大学和私立大学的学费问题，但并没有表明家长的态度和倾向；选项B意思不对，文中对应信息是第二段；申请贷款并不是无条件的，这是选项C的错误所在。综观全文，可以看出传统意义上的奖学金还是很有吸引力的。所以本题应选D。

28.A解析：由短文最后一段中的“Andthattransitioncouldprovedifficult，forswitchingrequireslengthyresearchandinvestment．”。

29.C解析：从第一段最后一句话“Botticelli'sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste,pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs.”可知，作者讲述了那些评论家，不管是业余的还是职业的，他们都不满意它的作品风格。所以这个词的意思可能是“对作品做出评论的那些业余人士”。故应选C。

30.B解析：由B中的第三段第二句话“NewYorkhasbecomeoneoftheworld's
