li参考答案1a2d3d4b5d6b7c8c9b10b11a12c13b14a15b【解析】试题分析：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。1a。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。2d。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。3d。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。4b。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。5d。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。6b。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”。7c。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。8c。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。9b。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。10b。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dont。11a。一些人不喜欢电话购物法，称其为“垃圾”。故应选teleshopping。12c。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。13b。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。14a。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。15b。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。考点：考查日常生活类短文点评：本文主要是测试学生综合运用语言的能力，即从语篇的角度综合测试阅读理解能力、词汇的掌握和对英语习惯用语的熟悉程度、以及语法规则的灵活运用。考生做题时必须时刻从上下文考虑，不应该只看到所添的词在短语或句子内是否可行。因此，在做题时最好将全文通读一下，了解了全文的意思以后再作答。16a17b18a19b20d21b22b23c24d25c26c27c28c29a30d31a32a33d34b35d【解析】试题分析：本文通过举了音乐家和朋友的故事，说明我们要珍惜现在，不要等到以后后悔。16考查介词：a.
