36.J)。詳解 空格位于定冠詞the和名詞paper之間，推斷此處應填入形容詞。由上文可知Kavita Shukla在17歲時發明了保鮮紙，10年后，這一產品已被35個國家采用。因而此處應填入一個積極意義的形容詞來修飾這種紙，故填入J)miracle神奇的。備選形容詞中，average平均的和bacterial細菌的均不符合句意，故排除。

39.H)。詳解 空格所在句為同位語，解釋說明Rula Jebreal，故應填入表示職業的單數名詞，意思上與expert相近。因此H)host主持人符合題意。備選名詞中，innovators改革者為復數形式，故排除;access途徑和guarantee保證人與上下文意思不符，故排除。
40.A)。詳解 空格所在成分living without to refrigeration為后置定語，修飾主語people。空格位于介詞without和to之間，應填入可以與to搭配的名詞。備選名詞中只有access與to搭配，故A)access途徑為答案。其他均不符合句意，故排除。
41.M)。詳解 空格所在句缺少謂語，主語是Siuklas company，因此應填入第三人稱單數形式的動詞，并且與company相關。因此M)targets這里意為以為目標 符合題意，故為答案。備選動詞中，triggers也是動詞第三人稱單數形式，但書符合句意，故排除;其他動詞形式均不符，故排除。
42.I)。詳解 參空格位于形容詞many與謂語動詞are之間，應填入復數形式的可數名詞作主語。備選詞E，只有innovators為復數形式的可數名詞，因此I)innovators改革者為答案。
