15.A

16.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”。

17.foundfound解析：此句意為“1,000名受訪者中有70%的發(fā)現(xiàn)，相對于其他設(shè)備來說，在使用手機時人們表現(xiàn)出最差的禮儀”，所以答案為“found”。

18.amongamong解析：此句意為“后一種觀點得到了許多支持者，尤其…教育家?！憋@然，空處應(yīng)填“在…中”，介詞among即有此意。

19.dividedivide解析：根據(jù)上下文語境，這里是“分為”，divide…upinto意為“把…劃分為”。所以此處應(yīng)填動詞“divide”。

20.oftenoften解析：本句話的意思是“那些自我感覺很了不起、內(nèi)心充滿驕傲的人，總是不需要理由的就被人認為是趾高氣揚的人?！惫蔬@里答案為often。

21.complycomply解析：此處句意為“他們會很懊惱的服從”，表示服從，遵從的短語是complywith。所以此處應(yīng)填“comply”。

22.referencereference解析：這三個分詞短語意為“執(zhí)行日常運算、挖掘…材料、操作再生產(chǎn)設(shè)備”。顯然，“參考材料”最合適。

23.ofof解析：“對現(xiàn)實的了解”的英文表達是“theunderstandingofreality”，這里的介詞用of。故答案為of。

24.wherewhere解析：此題考查where引導的定語從句，修飾前面提到的plane，trainorbus。所以此處應(yīng)填關(guān)系副詞“where”。

25.concernconcern解析：“concernfor”表示“對…關(guān)心”。所以此處應(yīng)填“concern”。

26.A解析：第二段中女主人寫了一封漂亮的假期賀詞給這個她從來沒看到或遇到過的人。這個人在她的想象里就是像射擊一樣把《紐約時報》發(fā)射到她家門前，制造的噪聲要大于人們從黑市購得的鞭炮的聲響。所以她確實不喜歡拉烏爾投遞報紙的這種方式。因此正確答案為A。

27.A解析：由A中的第一段“Thepopulationofthecityisabout800,000anditcoversanareaofover69squaremiles．”可知答案為A。

28.DD解析：該空承接上段，講的還是與毒藤相關(guān)的信息。毒橡樹跟毒漆樹的生長地點，環(huán)境及其形狀。還是對鑒別毒藤的支撐信息。所以本題應(yīng)選D。

29.A解析：從文章最后一段“Potentialhomebuyerswouldcheerforlowerinterestrates．Employerswouldn’tmindalittlefewerbubblesinthejobmarket…”可以看出，盡管經(jīng)濟形勢不好，但是還是有人能夠受益的，比如說，想買房子的人認為這種低利息，就業(yè)市場等等。故應(yīng)選A。

30.C解析：由全文可以推斷，要指出犯罪率下降的確切原因是很困難的。

31.B解析：由B中的第三段第二句話“NewYorkhasbecomeoneoftheworld’sbusiestportsandalsothefinancial，manufacturing，andtravelcenterofthecountry．”可知答案為B。

32.C解析：C中提到“Theschoolcatersforgirlsofaverageabilityandabovebutitisnotnarrowlyacademic．”。

33.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend，andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

34.EE解析：文章的最后一段中指出“averyfew”、“theelitefew”，而選項中的“averysmallgroupof‘scholars’”也正是指出了這種情況，故應(yīng)選E。

35.D解析：由D中的第二段第一句話“…thatelementsofitcanbefoundinvirtuallyevery‘organizedcrimefilm’nowadays；…”可知。

36.B解析：由短文第二段中的“Differentkindsoftaxeshelptospreadthetaxburden…Thatiswhythethreelevelsofgovernmentinthiscountry．．．thisspreadstheburdenoftaxesamongmorepeople．”。

37.A解析：由文章第二段“…intheThirdWorldtowardfamilysizeandadawningrealisationthatenvironmentaldegradation…”。

38.BB解析：該空缺下面的段落都是對每一個“myth”的揭示。誰來揭示呢?B項中提到牛津大學老齡化研究中心成立各個問題研究組。

39.A解析：第二段中指出“…whenbrainandbodyareactive”，大腦積極運轉(zhuǎn)是眼珠快速轉(zhuǎn)動的主要特征，且在第三、四段又再次說明。選項B“被研究者很快的反應(yīng)速度”，選項C“復雜的記憶模式”和選
