11.1.6percent1.6percent解析：第2段第2句，每年的净增长率为1.6%。

12.C解析：由题干关键词Attendingschoolatanearlyage无法定位到文章中的具体部分。整篇文章未涉及孩子早上学所引发的问题。

13.A解析：本题的关键词可定为toomanycarpenters和somecarpenters。从文中第六段倒数第二句“Theanswerwasthat…totraincarpenterstogotootherpartsofthecountry．”看来，与题干中的“bemovingsomecarpenterstootherpartsofthecountry．”意思一致，所以本题答案为Y。

14.C解析：题干出自第三段中SunilBhartiMittal的一句话。原文中说it会给money-transfer行业带来革命性影响。代词it指代的是前文中提到的19家电话运营商与万事达合作推出的用手机短信汇款的方法(usetheirhandsetstosendmoneyabroad…remittanceswillbesentastextmessages)。[C]与原文意思相符。

17.B解析：该句提到，即使石油不会夺去这些生物的生命，也会带来慢性的、长期的影响，比如，破坏其生长和繁殖。该句中的这些生物(theseorganisms)指代的是首句提到的fish,deep-seacorals…andothercritters。由此可知，石油也会破坏fish和deep—seacorals等生物的生长和繁殖。题干中的exposedtooil对应原文的oilexposure，[B]couldhavetheirgrowthdamaged是对impairedgrowth的同义转述，故为答案。

18.mentionsmentions解析：文章第一段最后—句可以看出该书虽然没有专门章节谈论这一问题,但还是有所涉及的。
