8.B

9.D

10.A

13.B

14.A

15.C

16.onon解析：dependenceon意为“依赖，依靠”，是固定短语。

17.ofof解析：beofthesame…意为“是一样…”，此句意为“…在正确的指导下，他们能继续学习，继续通过干许多一样复杂的工作而获得多样性。”

18.andand解析：这三个分词短语是并列的，故中间的连词只能用and。

19.knowledgeknowledge解析：前面讲商家正确的分析市场的供需信息，知道是什么因素影响顾客的购买欲望。这就是他们利用的信息知识。故答案为knowledge。

20.asas解析：此处为因果关系，意为“因为许多人没有…”，因此此处应填填连词“as”。

21.populationpopulation解析：由下一句“越来越多的人正在制造更多的垃圾。”可知，此处应指“膨胀的人口”，即explodingpopulation。

22.useuse解析：后面的一句话"Theexpressionis‘both-feet-on-the-ground．’”表示down-to-earth的另一种表达方法是both-feet-on-the-ground。而后一种说法是美国人的用法，常常被美国人使用。故答案为use。

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.werewere解析：考查被动语态的用法，注意分析句子成分。所以此处应填“were”。

25.amongamong解析：此句意为“后一种观点得到了许多支持者，尤其…教育家。”显然，空处应填“在…中”，介词among即有此意。

26.D解析：由D中的advantage中的第四句话“Windfarmscanbetouristattractions．”可知答案为D。

27.DD解析：由上下两段综合分析，只有D放在此处符合逻辑。

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

29.EE解析：由上下两段可知，只有E放在此处可使上下文衔接。

30.C解析：从第一段最后一句话“Botticelli’sworkremainedoutsideofacceptedtaste，pleasingneitheramateurobserversnorconnoisseurs．”可知，作者讲述了那些评论家，不管是业余的还是职业的，他们都不满意它的作品风格。所以这个词的意思可能是“对作品做出评论的那些业余人士”。故应选C。

31.A解析：由本文倒数第二段可知，B、C、D均正确，只有A不对。

32.C解析：由短文第三段中“Theindustrialagemaynowbecomingtoanend，andsomeofthechangesinworkpatternswhichitbroughtmayhavetobereversed．”可知。

33.B解析：文章第二段一开头就说：“It'snotentirelyclearwhymedicinehasbeensoslowtobuildonAnderson'searlysuccess．”从时间上来看，Anderson采用基因疗法的成功尝试已经是1990年的事情了，两相对照，可见他的成功没有让医学加速发展。因此正确答案为B。

34.B解析：对于妇女的惯常思维没有因为法律而变化，所以A项不正确。根据第二段第一句话可知B项正确。从常识判断，雇主是不会主动提出提高妇女权益保护的，所以他们的保护不会比立法前多，故C项是不正确的。D项从文中不能推断出。

35.D解析：此题问技术员的回答如何。文章中“ButIdoneedit．”“Yes．butyoudon’thaveit．”Wewentonlikethisforawhile．Finally，heofferedtowalk
