【分析】本题为英语词汇运用题，需结合固定搭配、词性转换、冠词用法、比较级最高级、被动语态等知识点解题。每道题的思考逻辑：1. 依据固定搭配be responsible for确定介词；2. 根据engine的元音音素开头选不定冠词；3. 由固定短语speed up得出答案；4. 句中than提示用副词比较级；5. its后需接名词，转换produce的词性；6. 需副词作状语，转换形容词为副词；7. 副词修饰动词，转换形容词为副词；8. two后接可数名词复数，转换名词复数；9. among all提示用形容词最高级；10. 固定搭配afford to do；11. 根据语境判断用certain的反义词；12. too后接形容词，转换词性；13. 主语是动作承受者，用情态动词的被动语态；14. 一般过去时的被动语态；15. many后接名词复数，转换词性；16. 固定搭配look to do。
【解析】1. 固定搭配be responsible for意为“对……负责”，故填for；2. engine是可数名词单数，且以元音音素开头，表泛指用不定冠词an；3. 固定短语speed up意为“加速”，故填up；4. 句中出现than，需用副词rapidly的比较级more rapidly修饰动词changing；5. its为形容词性物主代词，后接名词，produce的名词形式为production；6. 此处需副词修饰整个句子，gradual的副词形式为Gradually；7. 此处修饰动词used，需用副词，wide的副词形式为widely；8. 数词two后接可数名词复数，company的复数形式为companies；9. among all the clothes提示用形容词最高级，expensive的最高级为the most expensive；10. 固定搭配afford to do sth意为“负担得起做某事”，故填to waste；11. 根据后半句“asked me again”可知是“不确定”，certain的反义词为uncertain；12. too后接形容词，stick的形容词形式为sticky；13. 主语old clothes是动作reuse的承受者，需用情态动词的被动语态，结构为can be + 过去分词，故填be reused；14. 主语the broken window是动作think的承受者，时间状语last night提示用一般过去时的被动语态，单数主语用was，故填was thought；15. many后接可数名词复数，invent的名词形式为inventions；16. 固定搭配look to do sth意为“期望做某事”，故填to start。
