16.inin解析：inturn意为“转而，反过来”，此句意为“给他们讲明这些小成功成为建立声誉的基础，而且从这些小成功开始更重要的任务才能被完成。”。

17.gogo解析：gotoone’sheads的意思是“展现、表现”，俗语。用在文中表示“把…写在脸上”，生怕别人不知道的显摆。故答案为go。

18.dodo解析：答案为do。

19.takestakes解析：要注意时态，这里意为“占据”，所以所以此处应填“takes”。

20.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。

21.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
