16.rewardreward解析：通篇文章均是在講報酬與創(chuàng)造性的關(guān)系，此句意為“如果孩子們知道他們在為…工作，…?！憋@然，此空處應(yīng)填“報酬”。

17.lookinglooking解析：與介詞for的固定搭配，意為“尋求…”，這里指的是尋求新的價值觀。所以此處應(yīng)填“l(fā)ooking”。

18.whichwhich解析：“聲譽建立的基礎(chǔ)”英語表達(dá)為“thefoundationonwhichreputationsarebuilt”，which指代foundations。

19.thosethose解析：文章中提到“16-19歲之間的日本青年跟25-29歲之間的青年對比”，這里缺少代詞，替代“Japaneseyouth”。所以此處應(yīng)填“those”

20.whowho解析：此空后的句子顯然為定語從句，修飾“Behaviorists”，所以應(yīng)填一個who，引導(dǎo)修飾人的定語從句。

21.farfar解析：能修飾too的副詞只有far或much。

22.whichwhich解析：此空后的句子應(yīng)為定語從句，修飾“tokeneconomies”，故此空應(yīng)填一個可引導(dǎo)定語從句的詞，而且前面可加介詞in。

23.withwith解析：根據(jù)對等關(guān)系，這里應(yīng)該與后面的部分“apersonwithagoodunderstanding”相對應(yīng)。意思是“那些腳踏實地的人往往是那些很了解現(xiàn)實的人?！惫蚀鸢笧閣ith。

24.whatwhat解析：此題考查what引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。要注意分析句子中的成分，此空為listento后的賓語。所以此處應(yīng)填引導(dǎo)詞“what”。

25.youngyoung解析：本文均是在講年輕的腦力工作者，故此空所應(yīng)填的用于修飾“collegegraduates”的詞也應(yīng)是“年輕的”。

26.C解析：越來越多的人贊成Stiglitz的觀點，批評自由貿(mào)易和全球化，從“Suchclaimsarenolongereredible，forStiglitzispartofasmallbutgrowinggroupofeconomists，sociologistsandpoliticalscientists…”growing一詞可以看出答案。所以本題應(yīng)選C。

27.DD解析：此處的上
