小題1:B
小題2:D
小題3:D
小題4:A
小題5:C

試題分析：文章是關(guān)于參觀狄更斯博物館的展品及其開放時間、門票、使用、租用、交通等有關(guān)信息。
小題1:B推理（文章出處）題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第三段最后一句“Click here to visit all the rooms in the Museum online”和文章倒數(shù)第一段“For a map, please click here”中的“click（點(diǎn)擊）, online（在線的）”可推斷出此文章來自網(wǎng)址，故B正確。
小題2:D 細(xì)節(jié)題。由題干關(guān)鍵詞“save”定位把答案定位于文章“Admission Charges”部分，由“ Adults: ￡5．00;…Children: ￡3．00; Families:￡14．00（ 2 adults & up to five children）”可知“這一家各自去參觀，要花費(fèi)：2*5+5*3=25英鎊；買家庭票只要14英鎊”，所以買家庭票可節(jié)約11英鎊，故D正確。
小題3:D細(xì)節(jié)題。故D正確。由題干關(guān)鍵詞“the Museum, find”定位把答案定位于文章第一段，該段第三句明確指出“…visitors can see paintings, rare editions, manuscripts,…”，即“…游客可以看繪畫，珍本，手稿…”，由此可知，答案A、B、C都有，D項(xiàng)在文中未講到，故選D。
小題4:A細(xì)節(jié)題。故A正確。做此類正誤判斷細(xì)節(jié)題的技巧是把選項(xiàng)與原文一一比較。A“這博物館與大英博物館不遠(yuǎn)”在文章最后一段“The British Museum and the Foundling Museum are within walking distance”提到，A項(xiàng)是此句原文的同義轉(zhuǎn)述，故為正確答案。B“17:00后，在任何情況下都不能參觀博物館”與文章“Special opening times can be arranged for groups, who may wish to book a private view”不符，不正確；C“視力差的游客不能享受參觀博物館”與文章“…an audio tour for visitors with impaired (受損的） vision．Our Handling Sessions are also suitable for the visually impaired”相矛盾，故不正確；D“任何人不能雇用博物館進(jìn)行其他活動”與文章倒數(shù)第二段“The Museum can be hired for private functions, performances soirees（社交晚會）  and many other social occasions”相矛盾，故不正確。
小題5:C主旨大意（寫作目的）題。本文的主旨大意是要根據(jù)各段的主題句概括而出。首段講了“查爾斯狄更斯博物館里的展品”，接著依次講了“狄更斯博物館開放時間，門票，使用，租用，交通”，由此可知本文圍繞“狄更斯博物館有關(guān)信息”展開，故C正確。

Before using the radio, please read all directions, fill out and mail in the warranty card, and put warranty information in a safe place. Although we do not expect problems with the radio, you may need to refer to the warranty information at a later time.

This radio is warranted for a one-year period that begins on the date of purchase. If it fails to work because of a problem of materials, please return it to the following address: So Fine Radio Corp, 1279 Delta Way, Monga.
