Answer 1

答案：D;C;A;D;B
解析：

(1) 題干意為“卡爾喜歡他的工作，因?yàn)椤�…”。看原文第一個(gè)人物Carl...中的最后一句話He likes...意為“他喜歡他的工作是因?yàn)樗�可以到許多不同地方去旅游”，故選D。 (2) 題干意為“瑪麗……所以她的學(xué)生喜歡她”�？丛�文最后一個(gè)人物Mary...中的倒數(shù)第二句She is...意為“她很和藹并且非常樂于幫助他們”，故選C。 (3) 題干意為“下面哪項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的？”A項(xiàng)意為“安已經(jīng)幫助媽媽們照顧新生的寶寶4年”；根據(jù)第二個(gè)人物Ann...中的最后一句This month...意為“這個(gè)月，她正在幫媽媽們照顧新生的寶寶”，故不是4年，而是這個(gè)月，但她做了4年的護(hù)士了。故A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，B、C、D在文中都能找到相應(yīng)的依據(jù)。 (4) 題干意為“support一詞在短文中的意思是……”，support出現(xiàn)在Joe一段內(nèi)，該句意為“他生活得很好，并供養(yǎng)著一家四口人”，故support意為“供養(yǎng)”，故選D。 (5) 題干意為“從這個(gè)短文，我們可以了解到……一直喜愛他們的工作”。Carl一段在第三句用了always，Ann一段用了likes....very much，Mary一段用了is always proud of...一直以……為自豪，故是認(rèn)為“一直喜歡”，而Joe一段第三句用了most...大部分時(shí)間喜歡，并非一直。
