16.knowledgeknowledge解析：前面讲商家正确的分析市场的供需信息，知道是什么因素影响顾客的购买欲望。这就是他们利用的信息知识。故答案为knowledge。

17.bringbring解析：根据上下文，此处意思为给他们带来快乐。带来用动词“bring”。所以此处应填“bring”。

18.ofof解析：“对现实的了解”的英文表达是“theunderstandingofreality”，这里的介词用of。故答案为of。

19.losinglosing解析：根据上下文的意思，很多年轻一代的日本人已经不再尊重父母，不再对家庭有责任感，所以这里用。losing表示“渐渐失去了”。所以此处应填“losing”。

20.ofof解析：deprivesb．ofsth．为固定短语，意为“剥夺某人的某东西(或某权利)”。

21.withwith解析：endupwith意为“以…结束，以…告终”，为固定短语。

22.productionproduction解析：从前一句话“Themanufacturersgobeyondonlytellingconsumersabouttheirproducts.”可以看出，一方面广告要介绍自己的产品，而第二个目的就是卖掉自己的产品。所以这里作者想要表达的意思是“广告要使得顾客有一种购买的欲望去购买自己的产品。”故答案为production。

23.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。

24.SometimeSometime解析：通过对后面句子的分析，我们可以知道那些想入非非、飘飘欲仙的人有朝一日也是可以“双脚落地的”，那就是“sharpwordsfromteacher”，所以这里表示的是“有朝一日”，故答案为sometime。

25.nono解析：本句话的意思是“那些趾高气扬的人不可能是那些平易近人的人”。这是否定的意思，故答案为no。

2
