46. quality “quality”作名词时，意为“质量；品质”时是不可数名词。意为“品格，品质”时是可数名词。此处“good quality”表示“良好的质量”，符合“这些种子有良好的质量，但也带来了问题”的语境，所以此处填quality。
47. safety safety problems“安全问题”，此处应用名词safety作定语修饰名词problems。故填safety。

50. ninetieth 根据“its”可知，后接ninety的序数词ninetieth表示顺序。故填ninetieth。
51. failed 根据“at first”可知，句子应用一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式。故填failed。
