正确答案：unveiled从全句来看，诸如found,discovered和unveiled都说得通，但第三个词更贴近该句的语境。

2.

正确答案：difficulty本文一直谈的主题就是difficulty，所以此空一般不会填错。

3.

正确答案：have从上文提到的difficulty来判断，这里应该是表示“不得不”之概念的haveto。

4.

正确答案：waited跟随名词之后的有三种可能：一是介词，二是动词的过去分词，三是现在分词。根据空后的45minutes基本可判断出该空应为waiting。

5.

正确答案：fetch这里填fetch或get均可。

6.

正确答案：hidden此空丢掉的明显是形容词，而常用来修饰purpose的形容词有三个：一是obvious，二是hidden，三是some。

7.

正确答案：promote此空是个动宾搭配问题：用于socialbility之前的动词有三个选择：一是promote，二是strengthen，三是enhance。但从定义的角度看，promote更为准确。

8.

正确答案：barbar是该文的主题词。

9.

正确答案：waiting空后的tobeserved表明此空丢掉的是waiting。

10.

正确答案：site根据该空的语境，site是唯一的选择。

11.

正确答案：strangers按常理，跟随conversationwith的或是friends或是strangers，该句的上下文分明暗示谈话的对象是strangers。

12.

正确答案：behavior和normal或abnormal常搭配的一般是behavior。

13.

正确答案：haven't从句法角度(ifonehasn't...onehasn't...)来判断，确定此空答案一般不会出错。

14.

正确答案：booklet根据此空之后的句子，该空应为booklet。

15.

正确答案：customers这里能和code搭配的也只能是customers或clients。

16.

正确答案：BritishBritish也是该文的主题词之一。

17.

正确答案：follow该空有两个选择：一是follow，二是observe。

18.

正确答案：example根据空后的内容，这里丢掉的无疑是example。

19.

正确答案：oroneortwo是个常见的搭配。

20.

正确答案：regular根据全文的语境，这里丢掉的无疑是与new相对的regular。
