解析：

文章大意：

多年来，航空公司费用高、优惠少。最近航空公司为旅客推出许多优惠政策，包括订票优惠等，同时使乘客保持贵宾身份更加容易。这些优惠政策对顾客更加友好，为顾客提供多种途径赚取飞行里程数，而财政规则要求航空公司把乘客未使用的里程数看成责任来对待，所以就使顾客能够更容易地获取优惠。

第11题：选H。语法结构和语义逻辑题。根据语法，本句中American Airlines是主语，new awards是宾语，此处缺少谓语动词，前面有时间点，用一般过去时。结合语义，此句是说美国航空公司推出了新的优惠政策，选项中只有introduced符合句意，所以此处填入introduced。

第12题：选E。语义逻辑题。此句中缺少补语。前面提到航空公司给予订票优惠，按照此逻辑后面应该是对于常客，航空公司使他们能够更加容易地保持贵宾身份，所以此处填入easier。

第13题：选G。语法结构题。根据语义，offers包括double-mile promotions，前者与后者是主动进行关系，用现在分词，所以此处填入including。

第14题：选C。语义逻辑和固定搭配题。根据语法，此句中those是主语，who引导定语从句修饰those，the changes是宾语，主句缺少谓语动词，后面还有介词as与之搭配。此句是说那些人把这些变化描述为更加方便顾客， describe ... as意思是“描述成”，所以此处填入describe。

第15题：选D。语义逻辑题。此句是说此项目变得更加方便顾客，为顾客提供多种途径来赚取飞行里程数，ways to后面用动词原形，所以此处填入earn。

第16题：选B。语义逻辑题。冠词a后面需要接名词。此句意思是大多数人想通过免票来赚取里数，这本来就很困难，后面进一步说特别是满员飞行时就更难了，此处用“挑战”一词符合语义，所以此处填入challenge。

第17题：选A。语义逻辑和固定搭配题。which引导定语从句，从句中缺少谓语动词，而且为一般过去时，后面有to，而且to后面是名词成分travelers using miles，attributed ... to意思是“归结于、归因于”，所以此处填入attributed。

第18题：选F。语义逻辑题。根据语法，空格处应为一个名词。而且，由转折连词But可以判断前后两句意思相对，后面用recession一词，意思是“当经济不景气时”，前面应该用In a good economy意思是“在经济状况良好时”，所以此处填入economy。

第19题：选L。语义逻辑题。前面说当经济状况良好时，人们会去夏威夷、伦敦和旧金山，但是当经济不景气时人们就不随便出行，而是必要时才乘坐飞机，所以此处填入necessary。

第20题：选K。语义逻辑题。本句意思是财政政策要求航空公司把乘客未使用的里数看成责任来对待，所以就使顾客能够更容易地得到优惠。此句是由which引导的非限制性定语从句，空格处为从句中的谓语，前面已经有助动词has，此处应为动词的分词形式，所以此处填入motivated。
