　　二、完形填空（共20小题；共30分）
　　Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced     16     naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought     17     in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon gave up their pressed flowers (压花) and insects.     18     them, I had no ear     19     music and languages: I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.
　　Before World WarⅠ, we     20     our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived     21    , of my room and my toys.     22     do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered     23     door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm     24    , the local birds and,     25     all, the insects.
　　I am a     26     not a scientist. I have a strong     27     of the natural world, and my enthusiasm(热情) has led me into varied investigation. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy     28     the midnight oil     29     reading about other people's observations and discoveries. Then     30     happens that brings these observations together     31     my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy(想象), you see the answer     32     the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.
　　But curiosity, a keen(锐利的) eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential     33     required is self-discipline(自律), a quality that I lack. A scientist requires not only     34     but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to point, can be made. A naturalist is     35    . If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.
　　16. A. it B. that C. what D. of
　　17. A. out B. about C. up D. back
　　18. A. Unlike B. Like C. With D. Against
　　19. A. of B. at C. to D. for
　　20. A. spent B. purchased C. wounded D. burnt
