16.whowho解析：此空后的句子应为teacher的定语从句，故此空处应填who，引导修饰人的定语从句。

17.rewardreward解析：通篇文章均是在讲报酬与创造性的关系，此句意为“如果孩子们知道他们在为…工作，…。”显然，此空处应填“报酬”。

18.farfar解析：能修饰too的副词只有far或much。

19.itit解析：本句意为“‘污染’意思是弄脏——表层土或什么东西，通过引进杂质，这使…不健康或不干净。”显然，此空处应指topsoilorsomething，因为前面已出现，所以用it来代替。

20.threatenthreaten解析：由33题解析可以知道此空一定为“威胁”之意。

21.airair解析：由前面的smog可知，此空处应填与smog相应的物质，又由后面的“hoversovercities”可知，此物质只能是“脏空气”。

22.itit解析：本句意为“‘污染’意思是弄脏——表层土或什么东西，通过引进杂质，这使…不健康或不干净。”显
