【解析】

试题分析：爱因斯坦小的时候，连话都说不好，他的老师、同学，还有其他的人们都嘲笑他。但是他的父亲却鼓励他，让他像永远不会停止生长的冷杉一样，最终长得比其他树都要高。

【1】B细节理解题。根据短文的开头 A boy couldn't speak when he was 3 years old. A lot of people thought he was a foolish boy可知，一个小男孩到3岁的时候，还不会说话，因此很多人都认为他是一个很笨的孩子。故应选B。

【2】C 细节理解题。根据短文中When the boy was 9 years old, he could speak but he still couldn't speak well. His teacher didn't like him at all and his classmates laughed at him可知，这个男孩到了9岁的时候，会说话了，但是说不好，因此他的同学们都嘲笑他。由此可知应选C。

【3】C 推理判断题。根据短文中Sabal grows very quickly at first but a few years later, it will stop growing, so the tallest Sabal can't reach(达到）ten meters. But the fir is different, it grows very slowly at first but it never stops growing so it can grow very tall."可知，菜棕这种树一开始长得很快，但是几年后，它就不长了，所以最高的菜棕也不能达到10米；而冷杉虽然一开始长得很慢，但是它从不停止生长，所以可以长得很高。由此可见，菜棕不会长得比冷杉更高，故应选C。

【4】B推理判断题。根据文意可知，当其他人都在嘲笑这个男孩的时候，他的父亲却在鼓励他，他给他的儿子对比了两种树，菜棕和冷杉，并且告诉他的儿子，要像冷杉一样，虽然一开始长得很慢，但是却在不停地生长，长到很高。因此他是一个很伟大的父亲，故选B。

【5】C细节理解题。根据短文的最后 The boy understood his father's words. The boy became a very great scientist可知，这个男孩得到了父亲的鼓励，最后成为了一名伟大的科学家，他就是爱因斯坦。故应选C。
