41．B名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据逻辑关系可判断出，日本附近水域含的鱼的数量不多，所以waters"水域"正确．
42．D 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据逻辑关系可判断出，为了让日本的人口有足够的鱼吃，大渔船要到更远的地方捕鱼，所以feed"给…食物"正确．
43．A 副词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据常识可判断出，捕鱼的人的船离日本越远，回来时花得时间越多，所以farther"更远"正确．
44．C 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．句意：如果返回的行程花的时间越多，鱼就不新鲜了．因为从句的主语是the return trip，所以此处应用take"花（时间）"．
45．D 名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．因为"If the return trip      （took） more time，the fish were not fresh"是一个问题，所以此处应用problem"问题"．
46．B动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据逻辑关系可判断出，渔船上安装冷库能使捕到的鱼保存的时间更长一些，进而使渔船行驶得更远，所以allow"允许"正确．
47．A词的辨析为本题主要考查点．句意：但是，日本人能品尝出新鲜与和冷冻鱼的不同之处．根据句意可判断出，此处应用however"然而，但是"．
48．A介词的辨析为本题主要考查点．因为此处指的是the fresh和the frozen fish两者之间的比较，所以此处应用between．
49．C名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据常识可判断出，冷冻鱼的价格较低，所以price"价格"正确．
50．D形容词辨析为本题主要考查点．根据常识可判断出，那些装在鱼缸里的鱼挣扎一段时间后，因感到累而停止移动，所以tired"累的"正确．
51．A 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．句意：渔业面临着一场即将来临的经济危机．根据句意可判断出，face"面临"正确．
52．C 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．语境表示，现在他们能将新鲜的鱼运到日本，他们是怎么解决这个问题呢？manage意为"解决；应付"，符合语境．
53．B 副词的辨析为本题主要考查点．语境表示，捕鱼公司还是将捕来的鱼放进鱼缸，但是里面还放了一条小鲨鱼，所以still"仍然"正确．
54．D 名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据常识可判断出，鱼缸里的鱼为了活命会不停地游动．move意为"移动"，on the move是固定短语，意为"在活动中"，符合语境．
55．A形容词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据常识可判断出，鱼缸里的鲨鱼使那些鱼活了下来，保持新鲜．所以alive"活的"正确．
56．C 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．句意：你是否意识到我们有些人也是生活在一个池塘中，但是在很多时候都处于不活跃或未清醒的状态？根据句意可判断出，realize"意识到"正确．
57．B 名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．此处应用sharks"鲨鱼"，与上文提到的捕鱼公司的做法一致，喻指那些能让我们保持活力的挑战．
58．D 动词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据后面的"you are happy"可判断出，此处应用overcome"克服"．
59．A 形容词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据那些捕鱼公司的做法可判断出，挑战能让一个人保持精力充沛和充满活力，所以energetic"精力充沛的"正确．
60．C名词的辨析为本题主要考查点．根据那些捕鱼公司的做法的改进可判断出，作者认为，一个人不要处于静止不动的状态，因为这最终会导致失败，所以stillness"静止不动"正确．
