16.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。

17.pollpoll解析：此句意为“Synovate市场研发公司的调查显示”，poll的意思为“民意调查”。因此答案为“poll”。

18.whosewhose解析：这是一个后置定语从句，用whose来引导，表示mind与dreamer的所属关系。故答案为whose。

19.whichwhich解析：由37题解析可知此空应为一个引导定语从句的词，即which，其后的定语修饰“several(typesofcontamination)”。

20.fastfast解析：由上一句句意“不耐心代表了年轻的脑力工作者们的特点。”可知，本句“他们想…成名”中的空处应填“快速地”。

21.werewere解析：考查被动语态的用法，注意分析句子成分。所以此处应填“were”。

22.gogo解析：gotoone'sheads的意思是“展现、表现”，俗语。用在文中表示“把…写在脸上”，生怕别人不知道的显摆。故答案为go。

23.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”。

24.gripgrip解析：显然，此空应填一个动词“握，拿”，英语中握笔用动词grip。

25.promisingpromising解析：此句意为“一家大制造公司最近采访了许多…的工程师，这些工程师都已离开这家公司。”由上下句判断，此空处填“有希望的，有前景的”最合句意。

26.B解析：文中提到，在一家企业中，最昂贵的资源是人力资源。

27.D解析：由第一段中的“Forsomeyears，startinginNewYork…”可知。

28.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。

29.C解析：选项A即心理学家已经放弃，而生物学家正在展开研究工作。而文中第三句话说“Psychologistsviewthesubjecteitherasamatteroffrustrationorajoke．”即心理学家认为这个研究不是一件沮丧的事，就是一个笑话，此句和选项A含义不一样。选项B即大脑区别显示出一个性别优于另外一个性别。而文中第一段最后一句话说“Butbeingdifferent，theypointouthurriedly，isnotthesameasbei

30.D解析：由D中的第三段“Theauthorarguesthatpollutioniscontrolledbyincreasingtherelativepriceofthepollutinggoodsintheproductionprocess”可知。

31.C解析：从第一段最后一句话“Botticelli'sw
