入的是A。29Eplace提示了后面很有可能是一个用where引导的定语从句，在六个选项中有两个用where开始的从句，但B的意义显然不符，故应用E。30C句中的moreattractive提示了后面很可能有用than引导的从句。第四部分：31B第一段提供了答案。32A第二段第一句中的句型wouldratherdosomethingthandosomethingelse，也可以用preferdoingsomethingtodoingsomethingelse的句型来表达。所以，A是正确答案。33C第四段告诉我们，HuguesRichard蹬车上塔，打破世界纪录。C不是正确选项，因为他cyclinguptothetower’ssecondfloor，而不是climbingupthetower。34B选项A不是正确选项，因为GustaveEiffel没有也不可能使用该塔向全世界发射电视信号。第五段的最后一句提供了答案。35C第六段的大意是：对不同的人，埃菲尔铁塔有不同的象征意义。36C从本篇文章可以得知：A人们支出大于收入；B人们比以前更节约用钱了；C人们的投资和消费在加速增长；D人们花钱更精明了。
