重点解析：

1. B。fun为不可数名词。这是感叹句作宾语从句的情况。

2. B。第一句话的主语是the salesman (售货员)，所以应该是“要价”（charge）而不是“付钱”（pay）。cost指“花费”，主语是物；order指“定货；订购”，不合题意。

3. C。test表示“测试；测验”，以确认是否合格。prove意为“证明”；boil意为“煮沸”；exchange 意为“交流；交换”。

4. C。without permission意思是“未经允许”。

5. C。a variety of意思是“各种各样的”，表示复数概念，题中所介绍的是现在的一种情况，所以谓语动词用are。

8. B。fantasy意思是“虚构；虚幻”，和fact相对。

9. C。brand name意思是“品牌名称”。

10. B。表示“大量”的时候用most of…或the majority of…。

11. D。上句的share指“股票”，下句自然要谈到“红利(pr ofit)”。

13. C。clothes可以做名词也可以做动词，意思是“穿衣服”。
