Answer 1

【答案】

【1】A

【2】E

【3】C

【4】D

【5】B

【解析】

主旨大意：沒有規(guī)矩不成方圓。本文介紹了英國嚴格的家規(guī)。

【1】“When I traveled in England, I got to know a little bit about this”的意思是作者在英國旅行的時候了解了一些英國父母教育孩子的方式。這即可以承接文章開頭的提問，又可以引出下文具體的描述。故選A。

【2】E選項的“After getting her mother’s permission, she came to my house. She greeted my family members one by one and asked if she could sit down”的意思是在她的媽媽許可之后，她才來我家。問過是否能落座以后才坐下，還跟主人的家庭成員一一打招呼。這與第二段的開頭“no matter how wild children are outside their home, their parents always tell them to be very polite in other people’s homes（英國父母要求孩子們不管在外面如何無法無天，但到別人的家里要禮貌）”相照應。故選E。

【3】C選項的“in addition”可以表文段內(nèi)容的遞進，使文章層次鮮明。故選C

【4】D選項的he和her與上文的人物相照應，且由“Sadly, Thalia was not allowed to go out to play for one week because of this”可知，悲哀的是，Thalia被禁足一周，正是“he was angry”的結(jié)果。故選D。

【5】最后一段作為小結(jié)段落，B選項的“家庭教育在英國家庭里的重要性”與下文的“沒有規(guī)矩不成方圓”相照應。故選B。
