16.productionproduction解析：从前一句话“Themanufacturersgobeyondonlytellingconsumersabouttheirproducts.”可以看出，一方面广告要介绍自己的产品，而第二个目的就是卖掉自己的产品。所以这里作者想要表达的意思是“广告要使得顾客有一种购买的欲望去购买自己的产品。”故答案为production。

17.byby解析：此空所在短句意为“报酬经常毁掉创造性，…鼓励依赖他人的认可和礼物。”显然，空处应填“通过”，在英语中介词by即可表达此意。

18.onon解析：“…的决定”英语表达为“decisiononsth.”这里介词需要用on。故答案为on。

19.themthem解析：本题考查代词的用法，根据上下文，此处句意为“人们使用这些小玩意儿。”上文已经提到gadgets，所以这里用代词“them”代替。

20.thoughthough解析：参见47题解析，由本句句意“…更便宜，…它的95%的部件仍可以使用。”可知，此空处应填“尽管，即使”，即eventhough。

21.losinglosing解析：根据上下文的意思，很多年轻一代的日本人已经不再尊重父母，不再对家庭有责任感，所以这里用losing表示“渐渐失去了”。所以此处应填“losing”。

22.dividedivide解析：根据上下文语境，这里是“分为”，divide…upinto意为“把…划分为”。所以此处应填动词“divide”。

23.whowho解析：此空后的句子显然为定语从句，修饰“Behaviorists”，所以应填一个who，引导修饰人的定语从句。

24.ageage解析：此段话均是在比较不同年龄段的人之间写字的不同，故此空应填“年龄”。

25.customercustomer解析：从这个句子的宾语“…thatheorshehasdoneagoodjobofchoosingtheitems.”可以看出，这里说的是顾客的行为，他们认为自己买这些商品是很理性的。故答案为customer。

26.FF解析：从后面的first，second等字眼可以看出答案为F，因为选项中的“This,ofcourse,willintroducetwovitalsetsofproblem-isalreadyintroducingthem.”相对应。故应选F。

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

28.C解析：文章第三段指出“ItisfarmoredifficultforAmericanstoacceptsharedsacrificeforthecommongoodandwell—beingoftheentirecountry．”，接着作者给出一个例子，证明美国人不会为了国家的利益而放弃个人的利益。故应选C。

29.C解析：由C中的第二段“Onthesouthwall，visitorswillseealledictsignedwiththeGreatFifth’shandprint．”可知。

30.A解
