試題分析：通過閱讀短文我們可以知道史密斯先生是個(gè)愛喝酒的人，因?yàn)楹染茊栴}差點(diǎn)被解雇。在承諾不喝酒后，又因?yàn)楹染茽C傷了耳朵，很能被老板推斷出他又喝了酒的事實(shí)。所以他可能面臨被解雇的結(jié)局。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文“But he couldn’t work when he drank too much.And once he almost fell into the river”的描述可知，因?yàn)槭访芩瓜壬�喝得太多了，差點(diǎn)開車掉進(jìn)河里。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文“I went to watch a football match yesterday”和上文“One Monday morning Mr Smith came into the office”的描述可知，時(shí)間是星期日，故選D。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通過短文后半部分對(duì)史密斯兩只耳朵受傷原因的表述，可知他肯定是又喝了酒，正常人是不會(huì)犯下那樣的錯(cuò)誤的，故選A。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通過閱讀短文我們可以知道史密斯先生把烙鐵當(dāng)作了電話，雖然燙傷了兩只耳朵，但是只有一個(gè)烙鐵，故選C。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。通過閱讀短文我們知道前面史密斯已經(jīng)承諾不再喝酒，從他耳朵燙傷這件事，布萊克先生很容易推斷出他又喝了酒。從四個(gè)選項(xiàng)的描述上來看，他被解雇的可能性最大，故選D。
