1.

2.The young man（Peter） studied hard and did well in his lessons. It made them （Mr. and Mrs. Turner ）happy.可以得出，句意：彼特學(xué)習(xí)非常用功，并且成績(jī)優(yōu)異。這些讓特納夫婦很高興。故選A.

3. D. 他兒子對(duì)人很友好 這兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)。第三段第二，三，四句話(huà)的大意：在巴士上她告訴她的一個(gè)朋友，她的兒子是如何聰明，能力是多么的強(qiáng)。她說(shuō)的聲音很大，車(chē)上所有的人都開(kāi)始聽(tīng)她講。故選C.

4. ，她有一個(gè)如此出色且令人驕傲的兒子，在車(chē)上之所以講那么大聲，其實(shí)是為了炫耀。D.希望每個(gè)人都向她道賀。跟B選項(xiàng)相比，這個(gè)選項(xiàng)有點(diǎn)過(guò)于夸大了特納女士的意圖，所以B選項(xiàng)比較合理，故選B.

5. woman和Mrs Turner的對(duì)話(huà)可以排除A.C。D.特納女士旁邊的女人也想炫耀她的兒子。整篇文章都沒(méi)有給出the woman的兒子到底是不是她所說(shuō)的那個(gè)牛津大學(xué)的教授，所以D選項(xiàng)排除。C.那個(gè)女人想讓特納女士停止炫耀。比較符合常理和題意，故選C.
