Question

I think the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning. He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! It's seven o'clock! Get up!" Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for breakfast as soon as my mother calls. But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our bedroom could not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!" But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on time, but I really don't think so.

解析试题分析：这篇短文中作者通过对比的方式，主要讲述了自己和弟弟两人截然不同的作息习惯：我习惯早起，而弟弟即使妈妈再三催促也还是赖床不起。
【小题1】细节理解题。根据短文 the most terrible thing in life for my little brother is getting up in the morning.描述，可知对弟弟来说时候中最麻烦的是早上起床，而非上学。故填B。
【小题2】细节理解题。根据下文 I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't mind getting up in the morning. 描述，可知作者晚上不喜欢睡觉，但不介意早起。而没有提及喜欢早睡的问题，故填B。
【小题3】细节理解题根据下文，I usually wake up before my mother calls me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower.可知作者经常在妈妈叫之前就下床走进浴室洗澡。故填A。
【小题4】细节理解题。根据短文Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep.描述，可知弟弟回答之后依然继续睡觉。故填B。
【小题5】细节理解题。根据短文After calling a few more times my mother has to come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with my little brother. （妈妈多次叫了之后，不得不上楼掀弟弟的被子。这是每天对付弟弟的方式）故选A。
