【解析】文章大意：本文介绍了英国的慈善商店。

【1】根据后面的时间状语in 1947可知，用一般过去时。

【2】这里用的是from…to…结构，而to后面有冠词a，from后面也应该用不定冠词，因为from和to后面的内容是并列的。

【3】much修饰形容词的比较级，而且后面有than，肯定这里用cheap的比较级cheaper。

【4】for free是固定词组，表示“免费的”。

【5】句意：大部分的东西都被使用过，但它们被清理和修理的很好。根据句意，用转折连词but。

【6】句意见上一句，是被动语态，故用被动形式。

【7】of是介词，后面要用动名词形式。

【8】用it，这里it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面由that引导的从句。

【9】修饰整个句子用副词。

【10】表示“其他的地方”，地方不只一处，所以要用复数形式。
