16.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。

17.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。

18.underunder解析：underguidance意为“在…指导下”，为固定短语。

19.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。

20.butbut解析：此句意为“30岁的人表现出非常不同的握笔方式，…超过40岁的人都统一用三个手指握笔。”显然，此空处表转折。

21.ofof解析：“对现实的了解”的英文表达是“theunderstandingofreality”，这里的介词用of。故答案为of。

22.lessless解析：由此空前面的“deterioratedsharply”可知此空应填“更少的”，而不是“更多的”。

23.thatthat解析：此空后面的句子为suggesting的内容，即应为其宾语从句，所以此空处应填引导宾语从句的词，即that。

24.andand解析：“both…and…”为固定搭配，“两者都”。所以此处应填“and”。

25.toto解析：besubjectedto为固定
