【解析】

本文讲述了Jerome Johnstone是如何帮助脑瘫同学Seth的。

【1】细节理解题。根据文中“In the race，the kind boy ran back to walk with his god friend Seth Johnstone and let him cross the finishing line first”，可知，Jerome放弃比赛是为了帮助他的好朋友Seth。故选B。

【2】细节理解题。根据文中“Because of his illness…make fun of his look．Jerome often has a word with them one by one，asking them not to do that again”，可知，当别人嘲笑Seth时，Jerome会告诉他们不要这么做。故选D。

【3】细节理解题。根据文中“Together with Seth’s younger sister，the kind-hearted boy takes good care of Seth at school”，可知，Jerome和Seth的妹妹一起照顾Seth。故选C。

【4】推理判断题。根据文中“Seth’s father can’t thank Jerome enough for looking after his son and protecting Seth against bullies”，可知，Seth的爸爸是感谢Jerome对他儿子的照顾，而不是停止其他同学对Seth的嘲笑，所以B选项是错误的。根据文中“With Jerome’s help，Seth fits in well with his new school now”，在Jerome的帮助下，Seth现在适应了他的新学校，所以C选项是错误的。根据文中“The two boy’s story has spread quickly after Jerome’s mother Susan shared it on social media”，可知，是Jerome的妈妈将这两个男孩的故事分享到社会媒体上，所以D选项是错误的。根据文中“These boys are champions even though they didn’t win，”said the proud mother，可知，Jerome的妈妈是非常自豪的，所以选项A是正确的。故选A。

【5】主旨大意题。本文讲述了Jerome和Seth这两个男孩之间暖心的故事。故选D。
