B
　　　Mr and Mrs Smith had always spent their summer holidays in New Jersey in the past, staying in a small inn (旅店) at the foot of a hill.
One year, however, Mr Smith made a lot of money in his business, so they decided to go to London and stay at a really good hotel while they went touring around that famous city.
　　　They flew to London and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They had expected that they would have to go to bed hungrily, because in that small inn in New Jersey, no meals were served after seven. They were surprised when the waiter asked whether they would take dinner there that night. “Are you still serving dinner？” asked Mr Smith. “Yes, certainly, sir，” answered the waiter, “we serve it until half past nine.”
　　　“What are the times of meals then？” asked Mr Smith. “Well, sir，” answered the waiter，“we serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five, and dinner from six to half past nine.”
　　　“But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of London，” said Mr Smith.

【解析】斯密斯夫婦平時只在新澤西度假，今年因為生意好賺了錢，他們飛往倫敦度假，倫敦的旅館的吃飯時間讓斯密斯夫婦感到很困惑。
（１）細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段可知斯密斯夫婦過去總在新澤西過夏天。故選Ｃ。
（２）推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段可知他們賺了錢，準備去倫敦——英國的首都度假。故選Ｂ。
（３）推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段第一句他們飛去倫敦。flew是fly的過去式，故選B。
（4）推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段，他們原以為到了倫敦會吃不到飯，就像在新澤西7點以后沒有飯了一樣。當聽到服務員說晚飯一直到9點半后感到很吃驚，說明他們對倫敦不熟悉，所以推斷他們是第一次去倫敦。故選Ａ。
（５）句意理解。句意：但是那樣（指吃飯時間）讓我們幾乎沒有時間看倫敦的風景了。Ａ是我們隨時去看倫敦的風景；B是我們有足夠的時間去看倫敦的風景；C是我們能看更多的風景；D我們幾乎沒有時間看倫敦的風景，little很少，幾乎沒有，與hardly幾乎不，意思相近。故選D、
