15.(In)Asia．

16.whichwhich解析：由此句句子成分分析，此空以后的应为定语从句，修饰characteristics，所以此空应填which，引导定语从句。

17.afterafter解析：此句意为“…他注意到了那些拼写有问题的学生也有一个坏的握笔习惯，他受到鼓舞调查这个领域。”

18.dailydaily解析：此句意为“但是不要使他们的…工作仅仅成为一长串令人心烦的差使。”显然，此空应填“每日的，日常的”。

19.surveysurvey解析：根据后面的数据，空缺处指的是1993年的一项调查问卷，所以此处应填“survey”。

20.oppositeopposite解析：从文章第二段的内容可以看出，Adown-to-earthperson和那些表面上装的很重要的人物正好相反。所以这里应填“相反的”，故答案为opposite。

21.normalnormal解析：根据上下文可以判断此处句意为“很正常的事情”，因此此处应填“normal”。

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

23.whichwhich解析：由37题解析可知此空应为一个引导定语从句的词，即which，其后的定语修饰“several(typesofcontamination)”。

24.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。

25.lookinglooking解析：与介词for的固定搭配，意为“寻求…”，这里指的是寻求新的价值观。所以此处应填“looking”。

26.D解析：文章最后一段指出，“Congressshouldpasslegislation…，allowcustomerstooptoutofsuchdatacollection，and…”，意思就是说国会应该要求网站公示收集用户隐私信息的政策，通过何种方式收集的，告诉用户怎么才能避开这些信息收集以及怎么查阅所收集的信息等等内容。optout的意思是“避开、避免”。故应选D。

27.FF解析：第一个“myth”认为随着人口老龄化的增长，西方国家的医疗体系会瘫痪。研究中的一位人口统计学家指出问题的关键是要建成灵活自由的医疗服务结构。

28.A解析：由文章第四段中的“Anotherfamousexampleistheelectriceel．Thisfishgivesanevenmorepowerfulshock．”可知。

29.CC解析：接下来讲的是人体的免疫系统与毒藤之间的关系。毒藤会使人产生什么样的反应，该空紧接的就是毒藤过敏反应时如何产生的。“Here'showthepoisonivyresponseoccurs．”一句承上启下。所以本题应选C。

30.D解析：第四段提到基因疗法遭受的一起挫折——一个病人因接受基因疗法而死亡；接着讲专家担心运动员利用基因在比赛中作弊会进一步tarnish这一领域，从上下文逻辑推理，应该是“有损，玷污”这一类的意思，因此正确答案为D。

31.D解析：fib意为“撒小谎”。

32.A解析：书评一中“Stiglitzargues，what’sneededtomakeglobalizationworkbetterismoreandsmartergovernmentintervention．”这句话我们可以看出。所以本题应选A。

33.C解析：本文第二段中提到“…becausealltheastronautshavecontractswithanAmericanmagazineunderconditionsforbiddinganyunauthorizeddisclosuresabouttheirprivatelives．”

34.A解析：由全文看，作者支持的一种观点是“为所有人创造工作机会是不可能的”。

35.C解析：由文中可知全球技术支持中心跟当地修理店的区别在于，当地修理店效率高，地点近，态度好。题目问的是除了哪个选项以外，其他都是二者的不同。所以本题应选C。

36.C解析：由C中的第二段“Onthesouthwall，visitorswillseealledictsignedwiththeGreatFifth’shandprint．”可知。

37.B解析：文章的第三段指出“…providedprivacyprotectionsforcertainsectorsthroughlegislationsuchastheFinancialServicesModernizationAct．”意思就是“象FinancialServicesModernizationAct这样的法案就是国会为了保护别人隐私而设定的。”故应选B。

38.D解析：由D中“TheprojectincludesanewEurostarterminalopeningthisyearandaspruced—upTubestation，alongsidehundredsofnewhomes，officesandleisurefacilitiessettobecompletedin2015．”可以看出将在King’sCross投资建立许多基础设施。所以此处答案为D。

39.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。

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

41.C由C中的第二段“…asubstantialagriculturesector，whichcontributestodeforestation，theerosionofthetopsoilanddesertification．hasledtoextremepressuresontheenvironmentand．．．．”可知。

42.D由短文第六段可知答案为D。

43.B对于妇女的惯常思维没有因为法律而变化，所以A项不正确。根据第二段第一句话可知B项正确。从常识判断，雇主是不会主动提出提高妇女权益保护的，所以他们的保护不会比立法前多，故C项是不正确的。D项从文中不能推断出。

44.C由第三段最后一句“Lifeinsuranceisan．．．isnotsubjecttotaxes．incontrasttootherpersonalinvestments．”可知。

45.B由B中的第一段“Globalenvironmentalproblemsariseoutoftheaccumulatedimpactsfrommanyyears’andmanycountries’economicdevelopment．”可知。2021年陕西省榆林市公共英语五级(笔试)模拟考试(含答案)学校:________班级:________姓名:________考号:________
