29、00）解析：J解析 此处应为名词，可与介词 in 构成词组作 watch 的状语。结合下一句的 Other fans watch the games at home. 可以推断空白处应为 person。watch.play in person 意为“亲眼目睹打比赛”。解析：G解析 此处应为形容词，修饰 fans。从本句中提到的 never miss a game 可以推断只有最热衷的球迷才会这样做，因此 devoted 一词最符合本句句意。解析：A解析 此处应为形容词，修饰 people。下一句表明本句中提到的职业运动员年薪很高，由此可推断这些运动员很富有，因此 wealthy 为本题答案。解

30、析：L解析 此处应为名词。结合本句说到的 big money, appearing, for soft drinks 等词可以推断空白处最合适的词是 advertisements，因为现在明星拍广告能赚大钱。解析：I解析 此处应为及物动词，且为动词原形。从本句中 but 可以推断句中第一个分句表明“虽然不是所有人都崇尚/喜欢运动”，空白处应表明“崇尚”、“喜欢”等意思，由此可见，worship 是最适合的词。解析：B解析 此处应为及物动词，且为动词原形。从本段对运动的描述可以推断空白处的动词应具积极意义，benefit 最合适，表明运动可以造福社区。解析：F解析 此处应为名词，且为复数。句中的

31、 like 及其后所列举的运动项目说明了这些都属于非竞争性的活动，由此可见，本题答案为 activities。解析：M解析 此处应为名词。本句是最后一段的主题句，该段说明了各种运动的起源，由此可见，主题句应表明运动是一种国际性的遗产，因此本题答案为 heritage。解析：E解析 此处应为及物动词，而且是过去分词的形式，与 were 构成本句谓语。本句及其后两句都指出有一些美国的运动来自于其他国家，因此只有 imported 与此语义相关。解析：O解析 此处应为副词，修饰 foreign。根据上下文的句意，可以推断词库中只有 formerly 适当，表明原本外来的运动现在也受欢迎。For so

38、s。在词库中 educational 和 online 都是可能的选择，但上下文多次提到 education 一词，由此可见，这篇文章讨论的是教育游戏，而不是在线游戏，因此educational 最适合。解析：K解析 此处应为名词，作 lead 的宾语。根据上下文，考虑到该次会议所讨论的内容及其目的，可以推断此处应为 change。lead change 意为“引导变革”。解析：N解析 此处应为名词，回指上一段提到的 conference。解析：F解析 此处应为名词，根据该句中 this 一词的提示，所需名词的意思应该与上一句 exposition同义，因此答案是 show。解析：G解析 此处

39、需要动词原形，而且是及物动词。在词库中，explore 和 change 都符合词性的要求，但上下文一直没有提到旧的方式，因此也不会涉及“改变”，由此可排除 change。因此答案为 explore。解析：B解析 此处需要名词，与 science 并列作 mix 的主语。因为该词与 science 并列，可以推断它也是一门学科，只有 mathematics 合适。解析：A解析 此处应该是动词的过去分词，与 will be 构成该句的谓语。根据 statement 和下文的 on some products 可以推断该词应该是 placed，意为“放置”。解析：D解析 此处应为单数名词，表明粘贴

40、声明的目的，因此答案就是 goal。解析：M解析 此处应为名词，从上下文可以判断该名词是某种 system，是一种设备，因此答案是devices。解析：L解析 此处需要副词作状语修饰动词 experience，表示学习经历的方式，词库中相符的词为online。experience the American Revolution online 意为“在线体验美国革命”。“It hurts me more than you“, and “This is for your own good.“ These are the 21 my mother used to make years ago whe

41、n I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.

46、. vacation L. profit M. summarized N. successive O. achieve（分数：25.00）解析：E解析 此处需要名词，而且在 are 后面，可知是可数名词的复数形式。These 是指前文提到的两句话，由此可推断空白处的词义与“话语”有关，所以答案为 statements，意思是“陈述，说法”。解析：J解析 此处需要形容词，修饰 period。其后 in which 引导的定语从句进一步说明了那时我们完全不用逼孩子，由此可知 permissive“纵容的；自由的”符合上下文的语义。解析：O解析 此处需要及物动词，因为前面有 to，所以是动词原形。词

47、库中的及物动词原形有 adopt和 achieve，合适的是 achieve。achieve their best 意为“取得最好成绩”。解析：A解析 此处需要名词，而且在 a 后面，可知是可数名词的单数形式。词库中能与 take 搭配的可数名词单数是 policy。take a let-alone policy 意为“采取放任的政策”。解析：K解析 此处需要名词或动名词，而且要和 go on 构成词组。前文指出对孩子采取放任的政策，所以自己就可以不管他们，由此可知 vacation 正确。go on vacation 意为“去度假”。解析：H解析 在此句中，with children who

48、 haye been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years 充当定语成分，所以要填的词应该是分词形式，并且该词要和 with 构成词组。再联系上下文的句意，可得出答案为 faced。be faced with 意为“面对”。解析：I解析 此处是在 are 后面和宾语从句的前面，由此可知是及物动词的现在分词。词库中符合条件的只有 realizing，该词也符合上下文语义，意思是“认识到”。解析：D解析 此处需要填一个不及物动词，和介词 to 连用，由主语 television 可知该动词为第三人称单数形式。上文提到 Klompus

49、说她的学生“很被动”，由此可知她认为电视是造成学生被动的一个原因。综上所述，可知答案为 contributes。contribute to 意为“促成”。解析：G解析 此处需要及物动词，而且在 have 后面，所以需要动词的过去分词。词库中的 learned 和summarized 符合要求，但根据上下文，learned 更合适，意为“得知，了解”。解析：B解析 此处需填一个名词。文章最后一段与第 1 段开头呼应，根据开头母亲的话语“This is for your own good. ”可知 good 正确。for sb.“s good 意为“为了某人好”。Children model themselves largely on their parents. They do so 31 through identification. Children identify with a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are 32 of that parent. The things parents do and sayand the way th
