16.whichwhich解析：由此句句子成分分析，此空以后的应为定语从句，修饰characteristics，所以此空应填which，引导定语从句。

17.afterafter解析：此句意为“…他注意到了那些拼写有问题的学生也有一个坏的握笔习惯，他受到鼓舞调查这个领域。”

18.withwith解析：endupwith意为“以…结束，以…告终”，为固定短语。

19.onon解析：此题也考查介词的用法，在电话中交谈，一般用onthephone。所以此处应填介词“on”。

20.disposedispose解析：由前一句“但是这个问题因为我们的“一次性”技术而加剧了。”可知，此处应为“丢掉，扔掉”之意，即disposeof。

21.stillstill解析：本句意为“但是空气污染，尽管它…是
