16.butbut解析：这里表达的前后句意是一种转折关系。前面说“hemayhavedreams，”而后面“hedoesnotallowthemtoblockhisknowledge…”的意思却是“但是他也不会让这些梦想阻挡自己对什么是现实的理解。”故答案为but。

17.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。
