【解析】

短文主要介紹通過聽“播客”來學習英語的方法。

【1】句意：（短文）介紹了通過聽力學習英語（的方法）。

細節(jié)理解題。A.聽，B.說，C.寫，D.讀。短文首段第二句說：“there is a good way for you to learn English: listening to podcasts.”（有一種好方法給你學英語：聽“播客”。）由此可知，短文介紹了通過聽力學習英語的方法。故選A。

【2】句意：我們可以在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)找到“播客”。

細節(jié)理解題。A.在教師辦公室，B.在學校圖書館，C.在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)，D.在街道商店。短文第二段第二句說：“You can find them easily on the Internet.”（你可以在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)輕松地找到它們。）“them”指上文的“播客”。故選C。

【3】句意：當我們騎自行車的時候不應該聽“播客”，因為那是不安全的。

細節(jié)理解題。A.它會讓你變聾。B.那是不安全的。C.對電話機有害。D.那是無趣的。短文第三段第三句說：“That’s too dangerous!”（那是危險的!）“危險的”即是“不安全的”。故選B。

【4】句意：根據(jù)短文描述，以下哪項是正確的？

細節(jié)理解題。A.大多數(shù)的“播客”是關于音樂和故事的。B.你可以選擇有趣的“播客”來聽。C.你應該在特定的時間聽“播客”。D.互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上所有的“播客”都不是免費的。短文第二段第四、五、六句說：“Some are about music. Some are about interesting stories. Some are about language learning.”（一些是關于音樂的。一些是關于故事的。一些是關于語言學習的。）短文第二段第七句后半句說：“so you can choose what you are interested in and keep listening. ”（你可以選擇你感興趣的內(nèi)容來聽。） 短文第二段第八句說：“The other advantage of listening to podcasts is that you can do it almost at any time. ”（聽“播客”的另一個優(yōu)點是你幾乎可以在任何時候聽。）短文第二段第七句前半句說：“Fortunately, the podcasts are free...”（幸運地是，“播客”是免費的……）綜上所述，B項正確，而A、C、D三項描述與原文不符，可排除。故選B。

【5】句意：我們可以從短文了解什么？

細節(jié)理解題。A.只有英語學習者才能下載“播客”。B.一些“播客”是很貴的。C.人們很難制作“播客”。D.每個人都有機會制作“播客”。由短文第一段可知，聽“播客”或下載“播客”的前提條件是擁有智能手機或電腦，并非只有英語學習者才能下載“播客”。所以，A項錯誤。短文第二段第七句前半句說：“Fortunately, the podcasts are free...”（幸運地是，“播客”是免費的……）據(jù)此可知，B項錯誤。短文第二段第一句說：“Podcasts are made by people all over the world.”（“播客”是世界各地的人們制作的。）據(jù)此可判斷，C項錯誤而D項正確。故選D。
