本文介绍了发源于美国并流行于欧洲各国的电话购物法，说明了电话购物法的发展情况以及受大众欢迎的原因，同时也指出了这种购物法存在的问题，并提出了解决这些问题的途径。
答案简析
1. A。上文讲到电话购物法在欧洲也开始起步，本句承接上文，对欧洲的情况作进一步介绍，因此，应选European。
2. D。电话购物法,应通过看电视选择物品，然后电话订购, 故应选TVs。
3. D。else为副词不用来修饰名词作定语。the other things意为“别的所有商品”不合文意，选项many other things意为“别的许多商品”为正确选项。
4. B。such as中的as为介词，因此该词组用于列举时，后面常直接接名词或名词性短语。而for example用于列举时与后面例子常用逗号隔开。因此B为正确选项。
5. D。分析句子，不难发现本句使用了“spend money in dong something”这一结构，且主语the French为第三人称复数，故应用spend的原形。
6. B。该句子表示“在德国，每天电话购物法仅在一个频道播放一个小时，这种情况一直持续到去年”，表示某状态一直持续到某个点时间，应用“until + 点时间”。
7. C。这里open表示“开放，开张，营业”，本句表示电影频道对电话购物实行了开放政策，可用来进行电话购物。
8. C。很明显，电话购物法为商人销售产品提供了一个极佳的渠道。因此本句表达了商人的愿望。
9. B。without为介词。后面应跟动词的-ing形式。根据文意，going out应为正确选项。
10. B。根据本句开头的But以及下文内容，这里提到的是对电话购物持反对态度的人。故选don’t。
11. A。一些人不喜欢电话购物法，称其为“垃圾”。故应选teleshopping。
12. C。人们担心的是电视上正在销售的产品的质量。A，B意思不对。for sale表示“待售”，为正确选项。
13. B。电话购物法令人们担心的是电视上展销的商品的质量，而不是商店里的商品，也不是已经买到手的商品。故选on TV。
14. B。根据上文，欧洲人的购物观念与美国人有所不同。因此电话购物公司也得采取不同的措施。固定结构be different form意为“不同于……”为正确答案。
15. B。根据上文，消费者关心的是质量。因此电话购物公司必须对质量倍加小心。故选择quality。

答案简析
1.A。one of 后要用可数名词的复数形式，根据文章意思，可知答案是A。

名师点评
本文讲述了一个聪明的小男孩的故事。他要求加入一位富人的旅行，在得到同意后选择担子时，看似愚蠢地选择了最大、最重的担子。而这恰恰就是他的聪明之处，因为他所挑的面包在途中是被边走边吃的，到达目的地时已所剩无几。阅读这故选foolish。篇文章时要注意句子的整体理解，如第8、9、10这三题。
答案简析
1. B。这位富人不仅带了东西去卖，而且带钱去“买”东西。解这道题时要注意将句中and前后的内容进行比较。
2. A。根据他的想法，他“决定”要带十个仆人。这件事完全可以由他自己决定，所以没有必要“希望带……”或“努力带……”，故C、D不合题意。
3. C。carry在句中意为“携带、运送”;take 意为“带走”;bring意为“带来”。本句意为“他们将运送要卖的东西和在路上要吃的食物”。下文的第10、11两题所在的句子也有提示。
4. B。参照第3题。
5. D。一个小男孩来找这位富人，要求和他们一起走，故选 the rich man。
6. C。参照第5题。
7. A。富人同意小男孩随行。
8. D。此句和上文是转折关系,意为“但是你是我的仆人中最小的、最瘦的、最弱的一个，你不能挑重担”，故选but。
9. C。参照第8题。
10. A。参照第8题。
11. B。此句意为“你要选择挑最轻的担子”，“pick up”意为“捡起”，不合文意，故选choose。
12. D。主人看到这个小仆人选择了最重的担子，感到他很“愚蠢”，故选foolish。。
13. B。听了主人的话，小男孩“什么也没说”，而是高兴地挑起了担
子。

名师点评
这篇完型填空讲述了身为边防检查员的彼得明知一个工厂工人在走私货物却无法抓住对方的把柄。在退休的前一天，彼得恳请其说出真相，结果令彼得恍然大悟。
答案简析
1.D。根据下文这个工人越过边界后，走下山坡，所以到达边界之前应在朝山上走。故选up。
2.C。这名工人是在推着一辆装有稻草的自行车，故选动词pushing。
3.D。这里表达的是到达边界之意arrive, come为不及物动词不可直接接 the frontier，故选reached。
4.C。ask与order后接不定式的复合结构时，动词前应有to, make后接不定式的复合结构时，动词前to要省去。根据下文应选make。
5.A。彼得想发现这个工人在走私什么，所以应仔细地检查。故选carefully。
6.D。这里根据文意，应选择表示“是否”之意的whether作宾语从句的引导词。
7.A。根据常理，彼得应先检查这个工人的口袋才能让他捆起稻草走人，故选before。
8.B.根据文意，彼得心中一直怀着查获走私物品的希望，故选hoping。
9.B。这里things和hide之间是被动关系,现在分词hiding作定语时表示主动，所以应用过去分词hidden作后置定语表被动。
10.D。本句中否定词never及文意决定了这里应选 anything。
11.B。四个选项从语法上讲都可以，只能从文意上进行区分，smuggling意为“走私”，是正确选项。
12.C。固定结构be able to do sth. 意为“能够干某事”。
13.A。习惯用语look through 意为“彻底检查”。
14.D。“as usual”为固定短语，意为“象平常一样”。
15.D。tell, order后面应直接接人作宾语表示告诉某人和命令某人，而用say应为say to sb. 故said为正确选项。
16.C.这里应选择一个介词构成介词短语在句中做状语。介词past 表“经过”;across 强调“从一边到另一边”;而into 表示“进入到……里面”。根据文意across应为正确选项。
17.C。“on the job”为一常用短语。意为“执行公务”。
18.C。因为今天是彼得最后一天上班说明明天他就要退休retire。
19.B。根据句中否定词not 及文意应选anyone。
20.D。本句说明这个工人回答彼得的问题之前沉默了一会儿。A选项应用a moment;C选项表示某一点时间;D选项表示一段时间或一会儿，为正确选项。
