14.B

15.C

16.foundfound解析：此句意为“1，000名受访者中有70％的发现，相对于其他设备来说，在使用手机时人们表现出最差的礼仪”，所以答案为“found”。

17.towardtoward解析：作者要表达的意思是“我怎么才能对别人诚实。”英语中表达“对某人…”一般是用介词toward。故答案为toward。

18.whichwhich解析：“声誉建立的基础”英语表达为“thefoundationonwhichreputationsarebuilt”，which指代foundations。

19.displaydisplay解析：这里要回应本段第一句话中的“displayed”。在出口结算处展示的这些小商品无疑是一种诱惑。这里需要用名词形式。故答案为display。

20.customercustomer解析：从这个句子的宾语“…thatheorshehasdoneagoodjobofchoosingtheitems．”可以看出，这里说的是顾客的行为，他们认为自己买这些商品是很理性的。故答案为customer。

21.normalnormal解析：根据上下文可以判断此处句意为“很正常的事情”，因此此处应填“normal”。

22.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”。

23.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”。

24.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”。

25.toto解析：talkto的意思是“和某人聊天”，talk这里不及物动词，后面需要接一个介词。在从句中介词不能省略。作者这里要表达的意思是“和那些诚实的平易近人的人聊天是很惬意的。”故答案为to。

26.B解析：文章第二段一开头就说：“It'snotentirelyclearwhymedicinehasbeensoslowtobuildonAnderson’searlysuccess．”从时间上来看，Anderson采用基因疗法的成功尝试已经是1990年的事情了，两相对照，可见他的成功没有让医学加速发展。因此正确答案为B。

27.C解析：由第三段中的“Forthosecompaniesusingtechnology，theperdocumentcostofinformationprocessingisonlyafractionofwhatitwasafewyearsago．”可知。

28.B解析：书评二中最后几句话提到了Stiglitz对RubinandSummers，Fischer，theNO．2officialanddefactochiefexecutiveoftheIMF的批评，“…theyhadtoomuchfaiththatmarketscouldtransform.poorcountriesovernight．Helabelsthesethreemenmarketfundamentalists”都可以看出题目中包含的信息。所以本题应选B。

29.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。

30.D解析：由D中Smithadds，“Investment-wise，King’sCrossisagoodbet．Thereisabigrentalmarkethereandpriceswillgoup．Therearestillcheaperpropertiesavailable，onetotwobedroomflatsinVictorianconversions，orex—councilproperties．Butpeopleareholdingontothemfordearfifeinthehopetheywillg
