【解析】本题有两段短文，第一段短文为孩子们介绍遛狗挣钱的方法。第二段短文介绍西方文明的发源地Athens。

【1】固定搭配：make money挣钱，此处money是先行词，在后面的定语从句中做主语，第三人称单数形式，和定语从句的谓语动词之间是被动关系，所以用一般现在时态的被动语态，故答案为is made。

【2】根据than可知，句子用比较级，故答案为easier。

【3】句意：如果你和狗在一起不舒服，不要试着去遛狗。be 动词后面用形容词做表语，故答案为comfortable（舒适的）。

【4】句意：这可能是一个好的选择。choose（动词）选择，根据前面有a good修饰，故此处用名词形式choice（名词）选择。

【5】固定搭配：ask sb. to do sth.请求某人做某事，故答案为to tell。

【6】句意：让狗主人尽可能多地告诉你关于他们的狗和他们的习惯。故此处用about。

【7】句意：给狗狗带点吃的可以帮助与它们建立友谊。此处用动名词做主语，故答案为Bringing。

【8】句意：如果步行30分钟，你可以收取5美元。此处是if引导的条件状语从句。

【9】此处是形容词性物主代词修饰名词，故答案为his。

【10】句意：一定要带一个袋子清理狗的粪便。此空填a。

【11】固定搭配：be known as以---著称，被认为是---。Athens是句子主语，句子用一般现在时态的被动语态，故答案为is known。

【12】形容词修饰名词，答案为western（西方的）。

【13】形容词修饰名词，答案为powerful（强大的）。

【14】根据谓语动词的were，可知主语用名词的复数形式，答案为Buildings（注意开头大写）。

【15】句意：从那时起，他们的作品影响了其他作家。ever since（从那时到现在），和现在完成时态连用，故答案为since。
