41. 考查动词不定式。the ability to do sth.做某事的能力。此处用动词不定式做后置定语，故答案为to change。

42. 考查副词。副词修饰动词，故答案为simply。

43. 考查反身代词。自行车本身并不是新鲜的。此处用反身代词做主语的同位语，故答案为themselves。

48. 考查表语从句。这在一定程度上是因为中国跳过了PC市场，直接进入了移动领域。此处是because引导的表语从句，故答案为because。

49. 考查固定搭配。越来越多的外国人希望通过强调像中国这样的技术成就来促进本国的经济发展。a number of大量的，故答案为A。

动词不定式作后置定语时，与被修饰的名词有逻辑上的动宾关系。若动词不定式是不及物动词时，则要带上与之搭配的介词，构成及物动词短语。动词不定式作后置定语，常用于“have+某事+to do”或“enough+名词+to do”结构中。再如：She has no paper to write on. (write on意为“写”)另外，the ability/the way/the chance后面通常用动词不定式做后置定语。
