29、when。选 C 【小题 7】参照上文， “周刊 ”最可能发出的动作应该是 “出版 ”。故选 published。选 D 【小题 8】本题要表达 “带着兴趣 ”，伴随用 with。选 C 【小题 9】此处考查上下文理解。作者查出了美国平均每天机上突发医疗事件的次数，而数据统计一般都会用平均数字来说明问题。所以，这里选 average。其他选项， a sum of、 an amount of、 a number of分别表示 “一笔 ”、 “一些 ”(后加不可数名词 )、 “一些 ”(后加可数名词 )。选 B 【小题 10】病痛严重与否用 serious表达。所以 ，这里选 serious。 D
