16.gripgrip解析:显然,此空应填一个动词“握,拿”,英语中握笔用动词grip。
17.whatwhat解析:显然,此空后的句子应为"obscure”的宾语从句,而“isbeingwritten”中缺主语,可做主句的宾语、从句的主语的只有what。
18.whowho解析:此空后的句子显然为定语从句,修饰“Behaviorists”,所以应填一个who,引导修饰人的定语从句。
19.thatthat解析:此空之后的内容为suggests的内容,即此处应填that,引导宾语从句。
20.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”。
21.WhenWhen解析:这里的一句话其实与下一半“whenwearedown-to-earth….”所起到的作用是一样的,同时两者也是并列的,when表达了“当…”,所以这里填when。故答案为when。
22.outout解析:handout意为“分发,施舍”,为固定短语。
23.asas解析:such…as意为“这样的…如”。此空后为并列的三个分词短语,即“如”后跟的例举事项。
24.andand解析:这三个分词短语是并列的,故中间的连词只能用and。
25.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”。
26.B解析:由短文第一段中的“Andaccordingtolegend,therewasaTurkishrulerwho…Topayfortheweal"andtearonhisteeth.”。
27.C解析:C中提到“Theschoolcatersforgirlsofaverageabilityandabovebutitisnotnarrowlyacademic.”。
28.A解析:由A中第三段中“TheunpopulararchitecturehasledtotheareabeingcalledtheMiltonKeynesofLondon”,A中多处提到Rotherhithe的建筑风格很老套。所以此处答案为A。
29.C解析:这个题考察的是对后面几段的归纳。首先在第三段开始“Dr.MaquetusedanelectronicdevicecalledPET…theypracticedataskduringtheday,andastheysleptduringthefollowingnight.”这是一种对比性的研究方法。后来的第四段最后“…theirresponsetimeswhentheywokeupwereevenquickerthanwhentheywe
30.AA解析:由上下两段可知,只有A放在此
