14.C

15.Artandscience

16.whatwhat解析：显然，此空后的句子应为“obscure”的宾语从句，而“isbeingwritten”中缺主语，可做主句的宾语、从句的主语的只有what。

17.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”。

18.wherewhere解析：此题考查where引导的定语从句，修饰前面提到的plane，trainorbus。所以此处应填关系副词“where”。

19.whosewhose解析：此句意为“StephanieThomas，一位学习辅导老师，…发现已经发表了…。”由此可知，空处所填单词必为whose，引导定语从句，修饰teacher。

20.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”。

21.foundfound解析：此句意为“1，000名受访者中有70％的发现，相对于其他设备来说，在使用手机时人们表现出最差的礼仪”，所以答案为“found”。

22.suchsuch解析：“such…as”用来举例子。所以此处应填“such”。

23.tastetaste解析：本句意为“我们看得见它，闻得见它，…它，喝它，而且在它中间挣扎。”由常识可知，此空处只有一个“尝”较合适。

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

25.farfar解析：能修饰too的副词只有far或much。

26.C解析：由C中的第一段“Thecityisnowthelargestindustrialcityinthecountry．”可知答案为C。

27.A解析：pressing意为“紧迫的，急迫的”。

28.A解析：由A中的第一段“Thepopulationofthecityisabout800，000anditcoversanareaofover69squaremiles．”可知答案为A。

29.B解析：由第四段中的“Thehorsesarelessaffectedthanamanwouldbe，andwhentheelectriceelshaveexhaustedthemselves，theycallbecaughtwithoutdanger．”可知。

30.B解析：由短文第三段第一句“Incomet
