【解析】

你知道Give me five是什么意思嗎？它可不是給你要五塊錢(qián)的意思。短文中給我們介紹了這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的意思、用在什么時(shí)候以及它來(lái)源于哪里。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中It means the clapping (拍) of each other’s raised (舉起的) right hands together.可知，Give me five的意思是互相舉起右手擊掌，由此可知應(yīng)選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中People do it when they meet for the first time or something success happens.可知，當(dāng)人們第一次見(jiàn)面或者發(fā)生了成功的事情的時(shí)候，人們就會(huì)做擊掌這個(gè)手勢(shì)。由此可知應(yīng)選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文第二段中People do it when they meet for the first time or something success happens. For example, a student has good marks in exams or wins a lottery ticket (彩票).If a football team wins a game, the players will give high fives to everyone around to celebrate.可知，這里告訴我們?cè)谌藗兊谝淮我?jiàn)面或者發(fā)生了成功的事情的時(shí)候，就會(huì)做這個(gè)手勢(shì)，還舉例說(shuō)明，如在考試中取得了好的分?jǐn)?shù)、中了彩票、足球隊(duì)贏了比賽等等。由此可知應(yīng)選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第三段中This gesture may come from the old Roman gesture of raising the right arm for the emperor(皇帝).可知，Give me five這個(gè)手勢(shì)來(lái)源于古羅馬。故應(yīng)選A。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一句話This showed that the person raising his arm did not have a sword (刀) in his hand.可知，在古羅馬時(shí)代，人們會(huì)對(duì)皇帝舉起右胳膊，這樣表明這個(gè)人手里沒(méi)有拿刀，由此可知應(yīng)選D。

這篇短文給我們介紹了美國(guó)非常流行的一個(gè)手勢(shì)—Give me five。文章主題非常明確，重點(diǎn)突出，并且給出了一些例子來(lái)說(shuō)明，比較容易理解。后面的題目以細(xì)節(jié)理解題為主，考查我們對(duì)文章某處事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)的理解，答案�？梢栽谠�文找到。做題時(shí)，先通讀短文，掌握大意，然后根據(jù)題目所問(wèn)，定位到原文相關(guān)地方，搜索有用信息作答。為了快速定位到原文，我們可以從題干中找到關(guān)鍵詞。例如第1小題，我們可以用題干中的the clapping of…作為關(guān)鍵詞，這樣可以準(zhǔn)確定位到答案所在的第二段第二行。再如第4小題，題目問(wèn)的是這一手勢(shì)在哪里開(kāi)始的，我們要注意文章中表示地點(diǎn)的名詞，尤其是大寫(xiě)字母開(kāi)頭的專(zhuān)有名詞，這樣可以更快的找到答案。
