【解析】
试题分析：这是一篇关于美国邮局分布范围、大小、营业时间及营业内容的说明文。
1.小题1】考查动词辨析。句意：有些邮局很小并且你可能会发现它们在商店旁边。Say说；find发现；hear听说；根据句意判断应该选B
2.小题2】考查代词辨析。句意：…其他邮局设在高楼里。Others其他的；all所有，全部；both两个都；根据句意可知：美国的邮局有的很小，设在商店旁边，还有一些很大设在大楼内。上文已知，美国几乎每个乡镇都有邮局，所以不可能用both代替，而且邮局根据大小可分为两类，一些小的设在商店旁边，一些大的设在大楼内。所以用all 代替也不合理。所以用others其他的，指除那些小的以外，剩下的那些，故排除BC选A
3.小题3】考查形容词辨析。句意：从星期一到星期五，他通常的营业时间是从上午8：30到下午3：30。Closed停业的；free免费的； open营业的，根据句意选C
4.小题4】考查动词辨析。句意：如果你不知道该为你的信付多少钱的话，你可以咨询工作人员。cost ，花费，主语为物；spend花费时间或金钱，主语为人；pay支付，付出，pay…for为…付出钱。根据句意选C
5.小题5】考查形容词辨析。句意：邮票的价格是不同的，从一分到几美元。A. same相同的；B. different不同的；C. easy容易的。根据句意判断，选B
6.小题6】考查副词辨析。句意：如果你想让信件邮寄的快一些，……A. carefully小心地；B. slowly慢慢地，缓慢地；C. fast迅速地，快速地。根据句意及后半句“or use an air-mail envelope.或者使用空运信封”判断句意为：如果你想让信件寄的快一些，因此选C
7.小题7】考查名词辨析。句意：……，在信封上写上你想用汽车运送或者……A. air空气；B. bike自行车；C. car汽车。根据后半句“or use an air-mail envelope.或者使用空运信封”，可知本题是快速寄出信件的一种方式，后面提到了空运，这里肯定是另外一种运输方式，通过比较三个选项可知，应该选C
8.小题8】形容词辨析。句意：但是这种价格会高一些。A. low低的；B. small小的；C. high高的。价格用高低形容，故排除B，A postcard is cheaper than a letter.从这句话判断明信片比信件成本低廉，由此可知，此题应该选C.high高的。
9.小题9】考查副词辨析。句意：在邮局你还可以购买明信片。A. never从不，决不；B. also 也，还，同样；C. only仅仅，只。从上文可知邮寄信件可以选择信件的方式，这里又介绍了明信片的方式，所以这里应该选B.also,还，也。
10.小题10】考查动词辨析。句意：这是一种给异地的朋友寄信的容易的方法。A. send发送，寄出；B. show说明，展示；C. make布置，制造。根据句意判断，应该是寄出名信片，所以选择A。
