15.C
16.ratherrather解析:此空所在句意为“用四个手指握笔而不是三个。”ratherthan表示“而不是”。
17.farfar解析:可用于修饰“toolittle”的只能是far,意为“太少,特别少”。
18.someonesomeone解析:由本文的第一句话“‘Down-to-earth’meanssomeoneorsomethingthatishonest,realisticandeasytodealwith.”可知“Down-to-earth”指的是诚实,现实、平易近人的那些人。这里的someone和后面是相对应的。故答案为someone。
19.alsoalso解析:由35题解析,拼写有问题的学生必定握笔习惯不好。
20.offoff解析:turnoff是“关掉”的意思,此题考查动词短语的用法,根据上下文语境,这里意思是“关掉你的手机”。所以用副词“off”。
21.airair解析:由前面的smog可知,此空处应填与smog相应的物质,又由后面的“hoversovercities”可知,此物质只能是“脏空气”。
22.closeclose解析:显然,不好的习惯是“太靠近桌子”,故应填“近”。
23.whatwhat解析:此题考查what引导的宾语从句。要注意分析句子中的成分,此空为listento后的宾语。所以此处应填引导词“what”。
24.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。
25.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”。
26.C解析:Stiglitz在经济学领域享有的盛誉,C中“themostprominentandhisemergence”,“acelebratedtheoristwhowasawardedthe2001NobelPrize…”等词都可以看出他的杰出贡献。所以本题应选C。
27.A解析:由整篇文章可知,本文主要传达的信息为“食盐致病理论没有道理”。
28.C解析:由第二段中的“Second,theyhavetoadoptacomputersystemcalled…”可知。
29.B解析:由B中的第二段最后几句话“Millerisorderedtotakehissquadbehindenemylinesonadangerousmissiontofindandretrieveoneman:PrivateJamesRyan.”可知。
30.DD解析:此处的上面提到了两个问题,而选项D中也对两个问题做出了相应的解释。故应选D。
31.D解析:在第三段中女主人公意识到也许在四点的服务的原因是经过精心策划的而不是随意粗鲁的习惯,假期小费从随意的一句谢谢发展成为黑社会的保护勒索,所以作者是被迫的给假期小费的。因此正确答案为D。
32.A解析:由A中advantage第一句话“Hydro-electricpowersta
