36.seeking 考查非谓语动词。此处需要一个后置定语来修饰本空前的名词短语overseas returnees，由于overseas returnees与seek之间是主动关系，因此用动词-ing形式。
37.an 考查冠词。名词education前面通常加不定冠词，如get/receive an education。
38.were attracted 考查时态和语态。本句时间状语为last year，且表示被动概念，因此用一般过去时的被动语态。
39.stronger 考查形容词的比较级。本空后面的greater opportunities暗示这里应用形容词的比较级。
40.for 考查介词。be/remain thirsty for是固定搭配，表示“渴望……”。
41.though/although/while 考查状语从句。本句中said后面是一个由that引导的宾语从句，在该宾语从句中又包含一个由though/although/while引导的让步状语从句。
42.performance 考查词形转换。本空前面的两个形容词stable economic暗示这里应用名词形式。
43.to take 考查非谓语动词。be willing to do sth是固定表达，表示“愿意做某事”。
44.who/that 考查定语从句。本空前面的returnees是一个先行词，这里由关系代词who/that引导一个定语从句来修饰它。关系代词who/that在从句中作主语。
