40、ntoearth means some-one or something that is honest，realistic and easy to deal with”可知“Downto-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some one。(2) :to 【解析】talk to的意思是“和某人聊天”，talk这里为不及物动词，后面需要接一个介词。在从句中介词不能省略。作者这里要表达的意思是“和那些诚实、平易近人的人聊天是很惬意的。”故答案为to。(3) :opposite 【解析】从文章第二段的内容可以看出，A down-to-ear
41、th person和那些表面上装得很重要的人物正好相反。所以这里应填“相反的”，故答案为opposite。(4) :important 【解析】从本句后面的一句话可以看出，A down-to-earth person就算是重要的人物，他们也不会把这种显赫写在脸上。所以前面应填important。故答案为important。(5) :go 【解析】go to ones heads的意思是“展现、表现”，俗语。用在文中表示“把写在脸上”，生怕别人不知道的显摆。故答案为go。(6) :those 【解析】本句的意思是“他们不认为自己比别的不重要的人更好、更优秀。”这里比较的是down-to-eart
42、h persons和别人。故答案为those。(7) :often 【解析】本句话的意思是“那些自我感觉很了不起、内心充满骄傲的人，总是不需要理由的就被人认为是趾高气扬的人。”故这里答案为often。(8) :no 【解析】本句话的意思是“那些趾高气扬的人不可能是那些平易近人的人”。这是否定的意思，故答案为no。(9) :use 【解析】后面的一句话“The expression is 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。(
43、10) :with 【解析】根据对等关系，这里应该与后面的部分“a person with a good understanding”相对应。意思是“那些脚踏实地的人往往是那些很了解现实的人。”故答案为with。(11) :of 【解析】“对现实的了解”的英文表达是“the understanding of reality”，这里的介词用of。故答案为of。(12) :but 【解析】这里表达的前后句意是一种转折关系。前面说“he may have dreams，”而后面“he does not allow them to block his knowledge”的意思却是“但是他也不会让这些
44、梦想阻挡自己对什么是现实的理解。”故答案为but。(13) :what 【解析】解析同上。这里是一个名词性从句，what在句中做主语。故答案为what。(14) :person 【解析】本句话的意思是“与此相反的一类人是那些想入非非的人。”根据上下文的要求这里应该填入mall的同义词。故答案为person。(15) :whose 【解析】这是一个后置定语从句，用whose来引导，表示mind与dreamer的所属关系。故答案为whose。(16) :Sometime【解析】通过对后面句子的分析，我们可以知道那些想入非非、飘飘欲仙的人有朝一日也是可以“双脚落地的”，那就是“sharp words from teacher”，所以这里表示的是“有朝一日”，故答案为sometime。(17) :bring 【解析】通过前一句话“such a dreamer Can be brought back to earth”中的brought可以知道，这里应该填bring，表示“把带到”。故答案为bring。(18) :1ikely 【解析】前面所说的the person who is down-to-earth与the person whose both feet on the ground大体是一类人，所以这里表达的意思
