16.somesome解析：关键是注意and前后一致。“somerationaland…emotional”，前面说促使顾客购买的动机有很多，有的是理性的，有的却是冲动。所以这里应该是some。故答案为some。

17.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他们不认为自己比别的不重要的人更好、更优秀。”这里比较的是down—to—earthpersons和别人。故答案为those。

18.onon解析：dependenceon意为“依赖，依靠”，是固定短语。

19.amongamong解析：此句意为“后一种观点得到了许多支持者，尤其…教育家。”显然，空处应填“在…中”，介词among即有此意。

20.takestakes解析：要注意时态，这里意为“占据”，所以所以此处应填“takes”。

21.firstfirst解析：根据题意，作者想在这里做一个比较，而比较的对象是目的。这里作者仅仅给出了两个目的，所以这里是和第一个目的进行比较。故答案为first。

22.happinesshappiness解析：根据上下文，日本年轻人更看重追求个人的幸福。所以此处应填“happiness”。

23.dodo解析：解析见上题，为了避免与前面的know重复，这里可以换做do。故答案为do。

24.farfar解析：能修饰too的副词只有far或much。

25.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。

26.D解析：由D中的最后一段“Considerations…,onhowviolencecandestroyahumansoul，…”可知。

27.A解析：由短文最后一段中的“Andthattransitioncouldprovedifficult，forswitchingrequireslengthyresearchandinvestment．”。

28.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。

29.A解析：由A中的第一段最后一句话“Atpresent,thePalaceisanelaboratemuseumthatpresentsthelargestandmostcompleteensemble
