16.thatthat解析：此空后的内容为maintain的内容，即此空后的句子为maintain的宾语，应填一个可引导宾语从句的词。

17.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”。

18.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”。

19.suchsuch解析：“poorposture，leaningtoo…tothedesk，using…”均是对characteristics的举例说明，而举例用英语说应为“suchas”。

20.thethe解析：此处缺冠词，在年轻人之间，用the表示特指。所以此处应填“the”。

21.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)”。

22.drinkingdrinking解析：由本句句意“通过将污水和化学物质倒入河流和湖泊，我们已经污染了我们的…水。”显然，此空处应为“饮用”。

23.thatthat解析：参见32题解析，idea与bigachievementsrarelycomeeasilyandquickly是同位语，故此空应填that，引导同位语从句。

24.andand解析：“both…and…”为固定搭配，“两者都”。所以此处应填“and”。

25.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。

26.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。

27.D解析：文章的第一段最后一句话“Evenwhenanti-academicarthistorians．．．，Botticelli’sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste…．”，就算当时很多正统的艺术风格被批判，波提切利的作品也没有引起重视，认为他的作品不随人们的口味，既满足不了专业人士的品位，也不能满足业余人士的欣赏要求。这里的undervalue的意思是“低估，没有重视”，故应选D。

28.A解析：由A中的第一段“Thepopulationofthecityisabout800，000anditcoversanareaofover69squaremiles．”可知答案为A。

29.AA解析：第二个“myth”是担心人口老龄化会使工作人员越来越少。研究中心人员提出应该给年长的人提供各种培训机会。A中“Ourstudiesshowthattherearebenefitsfromhavinganage-integratedworkforce．”说“研究表明不同年龄段的劳动力的融合也会有许多好处”。

30.A解析：第二段中女主人写了一封漂亮的假期贺词给这个她从来没看到或遇到过的人。这个人在她的想象里就是像射击一样把《纽约时报》发射到她家门前，制造的噪声要大于人们从黑市购得的鞭炮的声响。所以她确实不喜欢拉乌尔投递报纸的这种方式。因此正确答案为A。

31.AA解析：由此空上下文可以看出，A填入使上下两段意思衔接。

32.B解析：文章的第三段指出“…providedprivacypro
