Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．B;3．A;4．D;5．C;
解析：

(1)	細(xì)讀第二段，再聯(lián)系父女倆的談話即可得出答案．
(2)	根據(jù)“but I didn’t think I was clear．”以及“I took one and then I took another…I know one and one was two, but don’t ask me what it is now．”可知B項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的．
(3)	根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，那位老師所說(shuō)的她的意思是說(shuō)“個(gè)位上的數(shù)字是幾就表示幾個(gè)一”，當(dāng)然應(yīng)是小于1的數(shù)．
(4)	由“My head was now hurting．”這句話，可知“父親”聽(tīng)了老師的解釋后沒(méi)有生氣、焦慮或悲傷，而是頭昏腦脹，疲憊之至．
(5)	選項(xiàng)A是不現(xiàn)實(shí)的，而選項(xiàng)C、D更是荒誕離奇．體會(huì)一下文末一段“父親”的舉動(dòng)，就可以想起他是一種什么樣的心情． 　　作者向我們講述了很多人都可能遇到的一個(gè)問(wèn)題：父母往往回答不上來(lái)小孩子問(wèn)的一些非常簡(jiǎn)單的數(shù)學(xué)問(wèn)題．文中作者的女兒向他詢問(wèn)怎樣計(jì)算二百零二減去一百七十九這道題．結(jié)果，他的女兒不但弄不懂他的解釋?zhuān)�而且他還無(wú)法解釋清楚女兒提出的問(wèn)題．他只好向女兒的老師求助，而自己被老師的解釋搞得天昏腦脹……
