A.the; /　B.the; the

C.a; the D./; the

答案：B　考查冠词。第一空考查“the+adj.”表示一类人;第二空本来出现可数名词的复数直接表示类别种类来泛指，但由于后面有of结构来作后置定语，所以在fruits前要加上the，表示社会发展的特定的成果。

7.________ smooth and soft, this kind of cloth made of silk ________ well.

A.Felt; sells B.Feeling; is sold

C.Felt; is sold D.Feeling; sells

答案：D　考查非谓语动词和主动表被动。第一空考查非谓语动词作状语，cloth与feel构成逻辑上的主谓关系，所以选feeling形式;第二空考查主动表被动，某些可以和well，easily，smoothly等副词连用的不及物动词如read，write，wash，clean，draw，burn，cook，sell，lock，open，shut，且主语是非生命的名词或代词，用主动结构表被动意思，再如：The pen writes smoothly.这支钢笔很好用。
