B.few;Sucha

C.afew;Onesuch

D.some;Asuch参考答案：C试题分析：考查形容词

句意上：只有很少的滑稽喜剧演员能后来成为有名的电视或电影明星，BillyCrystal就是这样的一个人。第一空表示“为数不多的”要用“afew”一词；第二空出表示“一位这样的…”修饰后面的person一词，且表示“其中之一的”故词序应该为“Onesuchpersonis…”,故C项正确。16.Thatisa(n)________conduct.Ifeel________ofwhathe'sdone.A.shameful;ashamed

B.shameless;shamingC.ashamed;shameless

D.shamed;shameful参考答案：A本题考查shame(n.遗憾；耻辱)的派生词用法。第一空表示“令人羞愧的行为”，第二空表示“我感到羞愧”。故第一空是shameful，指行为，第二空是ashamed，仅作表语，无shamed与shaming形式的词。17.Withtheavailabilityofmodernmedia,conversation_______theface-to-faceexchangeofthoughtsexistsisdisappearing.A.when B.which C.inwhich D.fromwhich参考答案：C【详解】考查定语从句连词。句意：随着现代媒体的出现，面对面交流思想的对话正在消失。分析句子结构可知，conversation是先行词，在theface-to-faceexchangeofthoughtsexists从句中作地点状语，根据句意可知，从句部分完整的表达是theface-to-faceexchangeofthoughtsexistsintheconversation，故此处应用inwhich，故选C。二、新的题型18.（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。JustbeyourselfHowtobecomeonewithyourselfManyofusliveourlivesbutonlyafewofushavefoundourtrueinnerself.Why?Isitbecausewehaven’tlookeddeepwithinourselves?Thesetipswillhelponyourwaytobecomingonewithyourself.
