【答案与解析】
1. B 根据首句“时髦意味着衣服”，很容易推测出要问的是“衣服”。
2. D 根据上文“用同样的方法使用形容词 fashionable”，下文自然是含有 fashionable 的句子。
3. C 根据下文中的 in holidays，in restaurants 等，运用语感感知法立刻就能锁定正确选项。
4. A 上句“假期时髦，餐馆时髦……”和本句的“学科时髦，工作时髦……”之间是进一步说明的关系，因此，要选表示递进关系的副词。这四个副词中只有 even 表示递进关系。
5. A “时髦随着时间的推移发生变化”，属于客观事实和普遍真理，因此，要用一般现在时。
6. C “看过去的像片或物品”和“看到时髦总是在变化”是条件与结果的关系，因此，本句应选引导条件状语从句的连词。
7. D 表示“与……不同”，要用固定词组 be different from。根据下句中的 different from，运用就地发现法，也能立马锁定选项。
8. B 从句子结构方面来看，这是一个表示两者进行比较的句型。根据语法规则“修饰比较级时要用程度副词 much”，就可以排除其他选项。
9. C 此处是指“从一个国家，到另一个国家”。表达这一意思时，要用连词词组 from… to…
10. A 根据后半句“明白钱的时髦”，运用科学推理法可知“只有买东西才能知道”，因此，应是“买新东西”。
