答案

【文章大意】本文是一个网页，主要讨论了英国房屋面积小但价格高的原因，并对比了其他国家的情况。
11. B 细节理解题。根据“We are a small country ... Also, in Britain, most houses are built of brick, so labour costs are high.”可知，英国土地有限，适合建筑的土地价格高，且劳动力成本高。因此导致英国房屋面积小但价格高的原因是有限的土地、高劳动力成本和适合建筑的土地价格高。故选 B。
12. D 推理判断题。根据“Because of the housing market and prices, I am back for good in France, after 10 years of working in the UK. For £130,000, you can at least get a three- to four-bedroom cottage and lots of land in France.”可知，由于房地产市场和房价的原因，在英国工作了 10 年之后，Sue 永远地回到了法国。在法国，花 13 万英镑，至少可以买到一套三到四居室的别墅和大片土地。因此，Sue 回到法国是因为英国的住房价格太高。故选 D。
13. B 细节理解题。根据“And it's cheaper when you have less space to heat. Remember that it's not a warm country.”和“What's more, energy is very expensive in the UK and it is cold in winter, so a large house costs a lot of money to heat.”可知，Kim 和 Chris 都提到了小房子在能源成本上的优势。故选 B。
