Question

Answer 1

1. D細節理解題。由題目中的關鍵詞invited to dinner ,可回原文定位于第一段。Mr. Jenkins對那些商人來說有利用價值，因此他們請他吃飯。

2. C細節理解題。根據第一段可知，Mr. Jenkins 太胖導致做每件事都很困難，所以去看醫生。

3. B細節理解題。由題目中的關鍵詞At first,可回原文定位于第三段。根據"He didn't do as the doctor said."可知，一開始Mr. Jenkins沒有按醫生說的去做。

4. A推理判斷題。由題目中的關鍵詞afraid . .. went to the doctor's again,可回原文定位于第四、五段,根據"unless you want to die soon"和”Could you tell me a way to lose weight,please?"可以判斷，Mr. Jenkins怕死，所以又去看醫生。

5. C細節理解題。根據文章的最后"To move your head from side to side when you're invited to dinner!"可知，實際上醫生是在勸告Mr. Jenkins拒絕赴宴。
