【回答】
1. A。上文講到電話購物法在歐洲也開始起步，本句承接上文，對歐洲的情況作進一步介紹，因此，應選European。 2. D。電話購物法,應通過看電視選擇物品，然後電話訂購, 故應選TVs。 3. D。else為副詞不用來修飾名詞作定語。the other things意為“別的所有商品”不合文意，選項many other things意為“別的許多商品”為正確選項。 4. B。such as中的as為介詞，因此該詞組用於列舉時，後面常直接接名詞或名詞*短語。而for example用於列舉時與後面例子常用逗號隔開。因此B為正確選項。 5. D。分析句子，不難發現本句使用了“spend money in dong something”這一結構，且主語the French為第三人稱複數，故應用spend的原形。 6. B。該句子表示“在德國，每天電話購物法僅在一個頻道播放一個小時，這種情況一直持續到去年”，表示某狀態一直持續到某個點時間，應用“until + 點時間”。 7. C。這裏open表示“開放，開張，營業”，本句表示電影頻道對電話購物實行了開放政策，可用來進行電話購物。 8. C。很明顯，電話購物法為商人銷售產品提供了一個極佳的渠道。因此本句表達了商人的願望。 9. B。without為介詞。後面應跟動詞的-ing形式。根據文意，going out應為正確選項。 10. B。根據本句開頭的But以及下文內容，這裏提到的是對電話購物持反對態度的人。故選don’t。 11. A。一些人不喜歡電話購物法，稱其為“垃圾”。故應選teleshopping。 12. C。人們擔心的是電視上正在銷售的產品的質量。A，B意思不對。for sale表示“待售”，為正確選項。 13. B。電話購物法令人們擔心的是電視上展銷的商品的質量，而不是商店裏的商品，也不是已經買到手的商品。故選on TV。 14. B。根據上文，歐洲人的購物觀念與美國人有所不同。因此電話購物公司也得采取不同的措施。固定結構be different form意為“不同於……”為正確*。 15. B。根據上文，消費者關心的是質量。因此電話購物公司必須對質量倍加小心。故選擇quality。
