【小题1】C
【小题2】A
【小题3】A
【小题4】D
解析：
【小题1】本题考查根据短文相关内容对词语含义进行简单推断的能力。联系后一句“英语学习有助于将来的事业，使将来的生活更加富裕”可以推断life-long benefit 意思是“终身受益的”。其他选项缺乏原文的信息支持。
【小题2】本题考查理解文章细节信息的能力。由第二、三段可知，伦敦的确是学习英语的好地方。其他三项与题干不构成因果关系。
【小题3】本题考查归纳文章主旨要义的能力。全文论述了伦敦不仅是商业中心，而且是学习英语的好地方。B，C脱离了文章的中心话题；D与原文信息不符。
【小题4】本题考查根据短文内容判断文章题材的能力。作者从头到尾在向大家推荐一个学习英语的好地方——伦敦，由此可推断这是一篇广告。其他三项与文章的题材相悖。
