　　答案及解析

　　46.A。文章第一段提到，我们都曾感觉过疼痛。从空格前一句的内容，即“有些人很少遭受疼痛之苦”，可以推断空格处句子的内容应当与这一句的内容相反，即“另外一些人却总是遭受疼痛的袭击”。

　　47.C。空格前的句子讲到，疼痛是我们身体的警报系统。因此接下来的句子应该说明这样说的原因。

　　48.D。空格后一句讲到，然而，有关疼痛过程的新知识使医生得以更好地控制疼痛。由此可见，空格处句子的内容应与此句内容相反，即医生对疼痛过程了解得很少。

　　49.B。空格前一句中的“chemical and electrical signals”等词语是对空格处句子的好提示。

　　50.E。文章第四段最后一句提到了“two different kinds ofpain messages”，而文章最后一段第一句中又用了“The first message”，显然，空格处的句子应以“The other message”开始。
