16.useuse解析：后面的一句话"Theexpressionis‘both-feet-on-the-ground．’”表示down-to-earth的另一种表达方法是both-feet-on-the-ground。而后一种说法是美国人的用法，常常被美国人使用。故答案为use。

17.bringbring解析：通过前一句话“suchadreamercanbebroughtbacktoearth．”中的brought可以知道，这里应该填bring，表示“把…带到”。故答案为bring。

18.callscalls解析：此句意为“他把这种缺乏礼节的行为称作是一种无意识的无礼”。call+双宾语结构，以为“把…称为”，所以此处填“calls”。

19.useuse解析：后面的一句话“Theexpressionis‘both-feet-on-the-ground.”表示down-to-earth的另一种表达方法是both-feet-on-the-ground。而后一种说法是美国人的用法，常常被美国人使用。故答案为use。

20.betweenbetween解析：此句意为“Thomas先生尽管不能在握笔方式和拼写准确性之间建立重要的统计学联系，…”所以答案为介词between。

21.surveysurvey解析：根据后面的数据，空缺处指的是1993年的一项调查问卷，所以此处应填“survey”。

22.poorpoor解析：此句意为“但是很容易通过给…表现报酬或创造对报酬太…的期望而扼杀创造性。”显然，此空处应填“劣拙的，不好的”。

23.especiallyespecially解析：“Around1980manyJapanese，——youngpeople…”，“1980年左右许多日本人，尤其是年轻人…”，所以此处应填“especially”。

24.asas解析：such…as意为“这样的…如”。此空后为并列的三个分词短语，即“如”后跟的例举事项。

25.bringbring解析：根据上下文，此处意思为给他们带来快乐。带来用动词“bring”。所以此处应填“bring”。

26.C解析：本文第二段中提到“…becausealltheastronautshavecontractswithanAmericanmagazineunderconditionsforbiddinganyunauthorizeddisclosuresabouttheirprivatelives.”

27.C解析：原文对应信息是：“Traditionalscholarships，academicorathletic,arestillapartofmanyfamilies'planning．”意为“许多家庭还在依赖传统的奖学金，不管是学习上的还是体育上的。”所以本题应
