15.Thecompleteanswers

16.proportionproportion解析：此处意为很大比例的学生仍然喜欢简单的工作，所以此处应填“proportion”。

17.betweenbetween解析：此句意为“Thomas先生尽管不能在握笔方式和拼写准确性之间建立重要的统计学联系，…”所以答案为介词between。

18.referencereference解析：这三个分词短语意为“执行日常运算、挖掘…材料、操作再生产设备”。显然，“参考材料”最合适。

19.farfar解析：可用于修饰“toolittle”的只能是far，意为“太少，特别少”。

20.areare解析：分析句子结构，这里缺少系动词be来构成动词的被动形式。故答案为are。

21.withwith解析：根据对等关系，这里应该与后面的部分“apersonwithagoodunderstanding”相对应。意思是“那些脚踏实地的人往往是那些很了解现实的人。”故答案为with。

22.unlikeunlike解析：根据下文，以日本学生与美国和韩国的作对比，日本的学生不像韩国和美国的学生一样。所以此处应填“unlike”。

23.promisingpromising解析：此句意为“一家大制造公司最近采访了许多…的工程师，这些工程师都已离开这家公司。”由上下句判断，此空处填“有希望的，有前景的”最合句意。

24.farfar解析：能修饰too的副词只有far或much。

25.dodo解析：解析见上题，为了避免与前面的know重复，这里可以换做do。故答案为do。

26.EE解析：由上下两段可知，只有E放在此处可使上下文衔接。

27.D解析：由D中的advantage内容最后一条“Agoodmethodofsupplyingenergytoremoteareas.”可知答案为D。

28.A解析：由A中的disadvantage中最后一条内容“Waterqualityandquantitydownstreamcanbeaffected，whichcanhaveanimpactonplantlife．”可知答案为A。

29.D解析：由本文第二段可知A、B、C均正确，只有D不对。

30.D解析：由D中的第二段最后一句话“Morethan90percentoftheUniversity'sfull-timefacultymembersholdaPh．D.orterminaldegreeintheirfield”可知。

31.A解析：第二段中指出“…whenbrainandbodyareactive”，大脑积极运转是眼珠快速转动的主要特征，且在第三、四段又再次说明。选项B“被研究者很快的反应速度”，选项C“复杂的记忆模式”和选项D“前一天事件的重现”都不是眼球快速运动的主要特征。故应选A。

32.B解析：此题是有关作者态度的问题。由第5、6段可以看出女客服的回答两人很不满，很沮丧。所以本题应选B。

33.A解析：由A中第二段第一句“Intheseniorschool，two-thirdsofthepupilsareboarders，andboardingisavailablefromtheageof11．”可知。

34.A解析：文中提到“…urgedcautioninensuringthateffortstoprotectournationdonotresultinbroadgovernmentauthoritytoerodeprivacyrightsofU．S．citizens．”其意思是“保护国家的利益也不应该伤害美国居民的个人隐私权利”，可知作者认为这项提议是不公正的。故应选A。

35.DD解析：此处的前一段说明的是一些特殊情况，例如“Thesameistrueofthecrippledorphysicallyhandicapped．”而后面的一段指出“Ofcourse，theoppositeisalsotrue．”也就是说在空白的地方，作者依然在说明这些不寻常的情况，故应选D。

36.C解析：由C中的第一段“Themonastery—likepalace
