11.NorthernEurope/NorthAmerica

12.Detective

13.Manyweeks

14.C

15.A

16.displaydisplay解析：这里要回应本段第一句话中的“displayed”。在出口结算处展示的这些小商品无疑是一种诱惑。这里需要用名词形式。放答案为display。

17.customercustomer解析：从这个句子的宾语“…thatheorshehasdoneagoodjobofchoosingtheitems.”可以看出，这里说的是顾客的行为，他们认为自己买这些商品是很理性的。故答案为customer。

18.notnot解析：此空前半句意为“我们真地生活在污染中，呼吸着它”，而后半句意为“它开始…我们的健康、幸福和文明。”显然，这是因果关系，故中间的surprisingly前只能加个否定词not。

19.whichwhich解析：“声誉建立的基础”英语表达为“thefoundationonwhichreputationsarebuilt”，which指代foundations。

20.thosethose解析：文章中提到“16-19岁之间的日本青年跟25-29岁之间的青年对比”，这里缺少代词，替代“Japaneseyouth”。所以此处应填“those”

21.fastfast解析：由上一句句意“不耐心代表了年轻的脑力工作者们的特点。”可知，本句“他们想…成名”中的空处应填“快速地”。

22.farfar解析：可用于修饰“toolittle”的只能是far，意为“太少，特别少”。

23.underunder解析：underguidance意为“在…指导下”，为固定短语。

24.themthem解析：本题考查代词的用法，根据上下文，此处句意为“人们使用这些小玩意儿。”上文已经提到gadgets，所以这里用代词“them”代替。

25.towardtoward解析：作者要表达的意思是“我怎么才能对别人诚实。”英语中表达“对某人…”一般是用介词toward。故答案为toward。

26.C解析：由第一段可知，这张卡片是送报人的，我们被暗示：要填好卡片投递，当你的服务在凌晨四点就被奉上时，你不能若无其事，你必须要直接点，他想要的是假期小费。因此正确答案为C。

27.C解析：由C中第三段第一句“Regularhighstandardperformancesinmusicanddrama，publicspeakinganddebatingareimportantpreparationforadultlife．”可知，该学校很重视培养学生的语言天赋。

28.D解析：由D中Smithadds，“Investment-wise，King’sCrossisagoodbet．Thereisabigrentalmarkethereandpriceswillgoup．Therearestillcheaperpropertiesavailable，onetotwobedroomflatsinVictorianconversions，orex—councilproperties．Butpeopleareholdingontothemfordearfifeinthehopetheywillgoupinvalue．Ifyoufindone，itisworthinvestingin．”可以看出在King’sCross投资将会物有所值。所以此处答案为D。

29.BB解析：该空缺下面的段落都是对每一个“myth”的揭示。谁来揭示呢?B项中提到牛津大学老龄化研究中心成立各个问题研究组。

30.C解析：由C中的第一段第一句话“Chicago，thesecondlargestcityinpopulationintheUnitedStates，”可知答案为C。

31.B解析：由B中的后面部分“Themostimportantconstructions…HeavenKitchen,…othersofhistoricinterestandscenicbeauty.”可知。

32.A解析：“Comparisonofthesignificanceoftwoeconomicbooks”含有对两本经济书的对比信息的，我们可以看出四个书评中只有A中提到了两本书之间的关系。所以本题应选A。

33.B解析：对
