【解析】

試題分析：這篇文章講的是在西方國家女性在很多方面被尊敬。如：在餐桌旁，街道上等，處處體現(xiàn)了女士優(yōu)先的原則。

1.are respected 考查被動語態(tài)。本句是一個被動語態(tài)。句義：在很多方面在西方國家里女性都受到尊敬。根據句義說明表示的是被動的含義。

2. as 考查連詞 本句是一個省略句，在as后面省略了it is；as引導的是一個方式狀語，意為“正如”；在美國，正如在歐洲一樣，你會看見男性為女性開門。

3.unless 考查連詞 在歐洲女性通常都走在男性的前面，除非男性不得不為女性選擇桌子，開門或者提供其他服務。根據句義本句中的unless表示“除非，如果…不…”，引導的是一個條件句

4.which / that 考查定語從句 本句是一個定語從句，先行詞是the side，which指代先行詞在句中做主語。指男性在和女性走路的時候，總是走在靠近汽車的一邊。

5.them 考查代詞 本句中的them指代上句出現(xiàn)的可數(shù)名詞復數(shù)形式two ladies。指男性和兩個女性在一起的時候，要走在兩人之間。

6. the 考查冠詞 本句中的the特指說話雙方都知道的那個司機，也就是來接客人的男女主人。

7.seated 考查非謂語動詞。本句中的seated是過去分詞轉換的形容詞，seat使…就坐；與前面的名詞most men構成被動關系，使用過去分詞轉換的形容詞作為后置定語。

8.whether 考查連詞 本句whether… or ….無論…還是…；引導的是一個讓步狀語從句。無論新來的人是男的還是女的，房間里的女性都不需要站起來。

9.fewer 考查比較級 本句后面的than說明應該使用比較級的形式，指現(xiàn)在與過去相比較，遵守風俗習慣的人更少了。

10.it 考查固定句式 It is believed that…人們認為….；句中的it是一個形式主語，真正的主語是后面的that引導的主語從句
