15.100years．

16.betweenbetween解析：此句意为“Thomas先生尽管不能在握笔方式和拼写准确性之间建立重要的统计学联系，…”所以答案为介词between。

17.displaydisplay解析：这里要回应本段第一句话中的“displayed”。在出口结算处展示的这些小商品无疑是一种诱惑。这里需要用名词形式。放答案为display。

18.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”。

19.creativitycreativity解析：本文是在讲述报酬、表扬与创造性的关系，此句意为“但是小心地使用小量的金钱报酬能激起分级学校孩子们的…”显然，空处应填“创造性”。

20.promisingpromising解析：此句意为“一家大制造公司最近采访了许多…的工程师，这些工程师都已离开这家公司。”由上下句判断，此空处填“有希望的，有前景的”最合句意。

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.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。

23.thatthat解析：此空之后的内容为suggests的内容，即此处应填that，引导宾语从句。

24.alsoalso解析：由35题解析，拼写有问题的学生必定握笔习惯不好。

25.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”。

26.A解析：由全文看，作者在讲述一种观点：当联合国(UN)犹豫不决时，第三世界已经采取了行动。

27.D解析：A、B、C项文中均没有提到。根据第三段的论述，可知D项是惟一正确的。

28.C解析：文章第二段对于基因治疗的方式的解释是用于治疗的基因通过“virusesthatdon'tcausehumandisease”进入体内，就好像“特洛伊木马”一样，由此可见，这些病毒是无害的。因此正确答案为C。

29.A解析：由A中的第一段最后一句话“Itassessestheimpactofpotentialfeatureglobalclimatechangeonagricultureandtheneedtosustainagriculturalgrowth．．．”可知。

30.B解析：由B中的第一段最后一句话“Ithasbeencalled‘thelastgreatwar．’”可知。

31.A解析：由A中的第二段“…toillustratehowenvironmentalqualitycanbeincludedformallyinmeasuresofnationalincome，socialwelfareandsustainability．”可知。

32.C解析：文中第一段提到“Butsuchbehavioralstudiescannotdistinguish
