14.A

15.B

16.andand解析：这三个分词短语是并列的，故中间的连词只能用and。

17.callscalls解析：此句意为“他把这种缺乏礼节的行为称作是一种无意识的无礼”。call+双宾语结构，以为“把…称为”，所以此处填“calls”。

18.thethe解析：此处缺冠词，在年轻人之间，用the表示特指。所以此处应填“the”。

19.customercustomer解析：从这个句子的宾语“…thatheorshehasdoneagoodjobofchoosingtheitems．”可以看出，这里说的是顾客的行为，他们认为自己买这些商品是很理性的。故答案为customer。

20.acrossacross解析：getacross意为“使(观点等)被理解或接受，讲清自己的意思”，此句意为“给他们讲清巨大的成功不会轻易、快速地到来很重要。”

21.dailydaily解析：此句意为“但是不要使他们的…工作仅仅成为一长串令人心烦的差使。”显然，此空应填“每日的，日常的”。

22.thoughthough解析：参见47题解析，由本句句意“…更便宜，…它的95%的部件仍可以使用。”可知，此空处应填“尽管，即使”，即eventhough。

23.onon解析：focuson意为“集中于”，为固定短语。

24.sellingselling解析：关键是看and后面的buying。本句话的意思是“商家分析市场的供需情况。”故答案为selling。

25.someonesomeone解析：由本文的第一句话“‘Down-to-earth’meanssomeoneorsomethingthatishonest．realisticandeasytodealwith．”可知“Down-to-earth”指的是诚实，现实、平易近人的那些人。这里的someone和后面是相对应的。故答案为someone。

26.B解析：根据第三段和第四段的论述，我们可以得知作者的总体看法，即特别的劳工防护法并没有保护妇女的权益，故B项正确。A项与作者的观点明显相悖，所以不正确。C项从文中不能推知，故不正确。文中没有提到男性工人的保护问题，故D项也不正确。

27.A解析：在第三段最后一句“…oneculture—basedproducthasbeenclearedformarketinginEurope．”里出现了“cleared”一词。根据下文中“marketing”和读者有关药品上市前应该得到批准的常识，可以判断出，该词在本句中的意思是“得到官方的批准”。因此正确答案为A。

28.A解析：文章第一句话对用基因疗法治疗Ashanthi所患罕见疾病的成功给与了很高的评价，并在第一段未指出医生们对基因疗法寄予了极高的期望。因此正确答案为A。

29.C解析：由全文可以推断，要指出犯罪率下降的确切原因是很困难的。

30.B解析：由第一段的“Insteadofbeseechingusalltogetvaccinated，they'renowurgin
