15.Wheat

16.beingbeing解析：avoiddoingsth．意为“避免…”，avoid后必须跟名词或动名词。beovercritical意为“过分挑剔的”。

17.killingkilling解析：本句意为“通过无控制地使用杀虫剂，人类已经污染了土地，…野生动物。”显然，此空处应填“杀害”，但不能填kill，因为英语中无连词时不可能有两个谓语，故应填killing，killingthewildlife是现在分词做伴随状语。

18.whatwhat解析：这句话的意思是“这就是商家和卖者希望顾客们做的事情”，what引导的是一个表语从句，故答案为what。

19.offoff解析：turnoff是“关掉”的意思，此题考查动词短语的用法，根据上下文语境，这里意思是“关掉你的手机”。所以用副词“off”。

20.outout解析：handout意为“分发，施舍”，为固定短语。

21.diddid解析：据38题解析，由于while意为“尽管”，才有后面起强调作用的did，意为“确实”，言下之意有转折之意。

22.InsteadInstead解析：由本句句意“…修一台烤箱或一台收音机，买一台新的、扔掉旧的更容易、更便宜…”可知，肯定是“不修”，又因为有介词of，所以应填intead。insteadof意为“不做某事”，是固定短语。

23.fromfrom解析：keepsth．fromdoingsth：意为“防止某事…”，为固定短语。

24.waswas解析：此空显然应是句子的谓语成分，应填动词的过去式。

25.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。

26.D解析：由D中的advantage中的第四句话“Windfarmscanbetouristattractions．”可知答案为D。

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

28.A解析：由第四段最后两句话可知，基因并不能决定一切，因此减肥不会因为肥胖基因的干扰而没有任何作用，故A项正确。B项和作者的观点是相反的。D项文中未提到。

29.A解析：由第二段最后一句话可知A项正确。B项不能从文中推知。C项文中没有提及。男性工人的健康在法律中是得到考虑了的，故D项不正确。

30.B解析：由B中“BarnessitsjustacrosstheriverfromHammersmithinsouthwestLondon，butitcouldnotbemoredifferentfromthenoiseandbustleoftheoppositebank．”可以看出Barnes与其对岸喧嚣吵闹的城市完全不同。所以此处答案为B。

31.DD解析：由上一段中的“Edwina…andcalledhimontheintercom．”可知D中的“．．．closertotheintercom…”与之呼应。

32.C解析：由短文倒数第二段可知美国只有四个州没有importtaxes。美国一共50个州，所以应该有46个有importtaxes。

33.A解析：由A中“TheunpopulararchitecturehasledtotheareabeingcalledmeMiltonKeynesofLondonbutpropertiesarespaciousandunfashionablestyle.haskeptpricesdown”可以看出房屋样式古板，但是价位令人比较容易接受。所以此处答案为A。

34.EE解析：由此空上段的最后一句话“Eachwillveerslightlyandthepassingisdonesmoothly.”可知，当两人接近时应该慢慢的把目光转向别的地方。而后面的一段接着说“thissignal”，也就是选项中的“Itrustyou.Iamnotafraidofyou.”故此处应选E。

35.D解析：由文章第四段可知本题答案为D。

36.D解析：在第三段中女主人公意识到也许在四点的服务的原因是经过精心策划的而不是随意粗鲁的习惯，假期小费从随意的一句谢谢发展成为黑社会的保护勒索，所以作者是被迫的给假期小费的。因此正确答案为D。

37.A解析：从文章最后一段“Potentialhomebuyerswouldcheerforlowerinterestrates.Employerswouldn'tmindalittlefewerbubblesinthe{obmarket…”可以看出，尽管经济形势不好，但是还是有人能够受益的，比如说，想买房子的人认为这种低利息，就业市场等等。故应选A。

38.C解析：由C中的第一段最后一句话“Thissourcebook…andprovidespolicyadvice，includingt
