【解析】

试题分析：这篇小短文主要讲“我”在去邮局寄信时看到的一幕：人们在储存窗口取钱时总是相互之间保持着一定的距离。他们都相互尊重个人隐私，别人在打电话时也不会靠近。他们从不过问别人的隐私问题。从而说明西方国家对人们的隐私权保护的非常好。

1.考查固定搭配。to one's surprise：令某人感到惊讶的是。句意：令我感到惊讶的是，我看到一些人在离储蓄窗口办业务的人几步远的地方排队。故选D

2.考查名词辨析。A男子；B人；C信；D文件。因为是在办理业务的窗口，所以这里是有人，因为不确定性别，所以应该填person。句意：令我感到惊讶的是，我看到一些人在离储蓄窗口办业务的人几步远的地方排队。故选B

3.考查动词辨析。A站立；B破坏；C移动；D滑落。因为“我”对此表示奇怪，说明是因为办理业务的人办完业务了，但是队伍却没有移动，所以我感到奇怪，所以选moved。句意：每个人都办完了业务，但是队伍却没有移动一步。故选C。

4.考查名词辨析。A查明；B依赖；C申请；D到来。由前文可知，我对这一现象感到奇怪，所以“我”想到窗口查明清楚。句意：因为我感到很奇怪，所以我想到窗口查明原因。故选A。

5.考查名词辨析。A画；B任务；C话语；D公告。由后面的提示“ Thank you for your respect for other's privacy”可知，这是一句标识语，所以此项应该选notice。句意：这里的公告上写着：感谢大家尊重他人的隐私。故选D。

6.考查名词辨析。A声音；B提供，供给；C监督，警示；D句子，判刑。由后面括号里面的内容可知，在西方国家涉及钱的问题时就属于个人隐私了，加之上文的标语，所以在储蓄窗口应该是有警察在做警示。句意：一个警察正在监督防止其他人干扰其他人取钱。故选C。

7.考查形容词辨析。A令人失望的；B令人印象深刻的，吸引人的；C 受影响的；D支持的。这里是指“我”被自己看的场景所吸引，所以“我”才会多呆了一会。故选B。

8.考查动词辨析。 A消失；B等待；C表现；D看。由下文 Those waiting for their always kept their distance可知，他们是站在一定的距离处在等待上一个办理业务的人。句意：他们平静的站在规定的地方等着，好像常常这样做。故选B。

9.考查固定搭配。A常常；B相似的；C舒服的；D有礼貌的。used to 后跟强调动作的动词时表示“过去常常”；后面接的表示状态的词时，表示“曾经，一度”。这里的practice表示动作。句意：他们平静的站在规定的地方等着，好像常常这样做。故选A

10.考查形容词辨析。A有趣的；B奇怪的；C同样的；D不同的。因为后文中说的也是站在一定的距离之外，排着长队。所以此处是指在电话亭里看到了同样的场景。句意：在一个公用电话亭里发生了同样的事。故选C。

11.考查名词辨析。 A钱；B安排；C挑战；D轮换，轮流。“Those waiting for their always kept their distance”根据句中的意思，这些正在等待轮到自己的人也与上一个人保持着一定的距离。故选D。

12.考查固定搭配。A困难；B视线；C触摸；D问题。上文中提到他们相互之间保持着一定的距离，所以这里应该是看不见别人的钱。Be out of sight：看不见。故选B。

13.考查短语辨析。A留意，观察；B继续；C注意；D执行。From then on I to watch their ways of doing things, manners, treatment shown towards . 句意：从那时起，我就开始留心观察他们所做的事、他们的行为以及对待其他人的方式。Pay attention to表示“对、、、引起注意”，含有别人的请求之意，此处不适合，排除。故选A。

14.考查代词辨析。A我自己；B他们；C其他人；D另一个。 这里是指泛指“其他人”，句意：从那时起，我就开始留心观察他们所做的事、他们的行为以及对待其他人的方式。故选C。

15.考查动词辨析。A支持；B命令；C告诉；D尽力。 由前文I found the Germans always mindful of other's privacy（隐私）可知，德国人是比较注意尊重他人的隐私，换句话说就是他们尽力不让他人处于窘迫的处境，不让别人难看。故选D。

16. about age, incomes or the place to buy such a coat。这里是说他们不会询问别人的年龄、收入或是在哪里买的一件外套。故选A。

17.考查名词辨析。A笑容；B布料；C珠宝、项链；D长袜、丝袜。For instance, they never about age, incomes or the place to buy such a coat, nor would they talk about the others or others wore on their necks.由此空后面的内容可知，是戴在脖子上的物件，所以应该是珠宝，项链。故选C。

18.考查动词辨析。A感激、赞赏；B停止；C讨厌；D禁止。Their laws reading diaries or opening letters without 。句意：他们的法律规定禁止读他人的日记或者是私自打开别人的信件。所以选D。

19.考查名词辨析。A允许；B眼睛；C帮助；D警告。因为这里是涉及个人隐私问题，这里是说没有获得别人的允许就打开别人的信件。故选A。

20.考查名词辨析。A公共的；B私人的，个人的；C小的；D重要的。It’s obvious that it shows matters are not allowed to be disturbed.本文讲的是个人隐私问题，属于私人问题这里是说很显然，这些个人隐私都是不能被透露的。
