16.rationalrational解析：从文章的后面可以知道，顾客们已经要结算了，认为都买了该买的商品。但是售货员在他们等着付账的过程中巧妙的利用顾客们的购物冲动向他们推销，而不是理性购物。故答案为rational。

17.worseworse解析：“the+比较级，the+比较级”，意为“越…越…，”根据上下文，本句句意为“身边的小玩意儿越多，事情似乎就会变得越糟糕。”所以此处应填“worse”。

18.suchsuch解析：“poorposture，leaningtoo…tothedesk，using…”均是对characteristics的举例说明，而举例用英语说应为“suchas”。

19.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。

20.areare解析：分析句子结构，这里缺少系动词be来构成动词的被动形式。故答案为are。

21.thosethose解析：本句的意思是“他们不认为自己比别的不重要的人更好、更优秀。”这里比较的是down—to—earthpersons和别人。故答案为those。

22.fromfrom解析：“来自…的数据”，要用介词“from”。所以此处应填“from”。

23.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”。

24.unlikeunlike解析：根据下文，以日本学生与美国和韩国的作对比，日本的学生不像韩国和美国的学生一样。所以此处应填“unlike”。

25.firstfirst解析：根据题意，作者想在这里做一个比较，而比较的对象是目的。这里作者仅仅给出了两个目的，所以这里是和第一个目的进行比较。故答案为first。

26.B解析：书评二中最后几句话提到了Stiglitz对RubinandSummers，Fischer，theNO.2officialanddefactochiefexecutiveoftheIMF的批评，“…theyhadtoomuchfaiththatmarketscouldtransform.poorcountriesovernight．Helabelsthesethreemenmarketfundamentalists”都可以看出题目中包含的信息。所以本题

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

28.C解析：由C中的第二段“ThispartrepresentsthetensionsbetweenAmericaandFrance．”可知。

29.B解析：书评二中提到许多经济学家，甚至布什政府的官员都赞成Sfiglitz的论点，认为“economicchangeinthedevelopingworldmustevolvemorewithlocalconditions”。所以本题应选B。

30.D解析：根据这篇文章，普遍认为大脑的区别由什么因素引起的?短文第三段倒数第二句话说“Wetendtothinkthat，istheinfluenceofsocietythatproducesthesedifferences．”即我们认为社会的影响造成了这些区别。A、B、c均不符合题意。所以本题应选D。

31.B解析：由文章倒数第二段第一句“TheelectriccatfishoftheNileandofotherAfricanfreshwatershasadifferentsystemagainbywhichcurrentpassesoverthewholebodyfromthetailtothehead．”可知。

32.D解析：第四段提到基因疗法遭受的一起挫折——一个病人因接受基因疗法而死亡；接着讲专家担心运动员利用基因在比赛中作弊会进一步tarnish这一领域，从上下文逻辑推理，应该是“有损，玷污”这一类的意思，因此正确答案为D。
