试题分析：这篇短文给我们介绍了平遥古城，这是一座有两千多年历史的古城，位于山西省太原市附近。这座城里的建筑大多是两层，路两边有中国古式的建筑。这里还有美味的食品，值得人们来参观。

【1】根据短文的开头The old city is not far from Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province 可知，平遥古城着落在离山西省省会太原不远的地方，也就是在太原附近，故填near，在……的附近。

【2】根据短文第一段中It's a town with a long history of more than two thousand years.可知，这句话说的是这座城市的历史，故这里应填History，注意第一个字母大写。

【3】根据短文第一段中It's a town with a long history of more than two thousand years.可知，平遥古城有两千多年的历史。原句中more than是超过，比……更多，跟这里的over同义。

【4】根据短文第二段中It is only 2.25 square kilometers in size可知，这句话说的是平遥古城的面积是2.25平方公里。size尺寸，大写，根据原文可以填size；area面积，根据文意，这个词也可以。

【5】根据短文第二段中Most of the buildings have only two floors.可知，平遥古城里的建筑大多数有两层。由此可知，这句话说的是这座古城里的建筑物，故应填Buildings。

【6】根据短文第二段中Most of the buildings have only two floors.可知，平遥古城里的建筑大多数都有两层。floor楼层，根据句意可知，这里填复数形式。

【7】根据短文第二段中There are many Chinese-style shops on each side of the street.可知，古城里街道的两边都有中国式的商店。文中on each side of the street表示街道两边，这里空前是both，故应填复数sides。

【8】根据短文第三段中Pingyao is a square city. The city has a wall around it. It's about 6 km long and 12 m high可知，平遥古城是一座方城，四周都有墙围绕。square 方的。

【9】根据短文第三段中Try Pingyao beef and you are sure to fall in love with it.可知，平遥的牛肉非常好吃，你一定会喜欢的。beef牛肉，名词。

【10】根据短文的最后一段Pingyao is a place worth a visit. You can take buses or trains here可知，平遥是一个很值得参观的地方，你可以做公交车或火车去。由此可知这里填train。
