答案解析

1.B-從短文第一句Mr Brown lives in a nice house in a small town with his wife.“布朗先生和他太太住在小鎮上的一座很美麗的房子里”可以得出答案。
2.B-從短文第二句From Monday to Friday he works in an office near his house.“從周一到周五，他在家附近的辦公室上班”可以得出答案。算算周一到周五是不是一共5天呀?
3.B-從短文第三句He is free on Saturdays and Sundays.“他周六、周日休息”可以得出答案。
4.A-從短文第五句He likes growing flowers and he often works in the garden on Saturdays and Sundays.“他喜歡養花，雙休日經常在花園工作。”可以得出答案。文中并未提及在花園散步(walk)，look at the garden是指“看著花園”，文中也未提及。所以B和C選項可以排除，剩下A選項啦。
5.A-從文中第六句The flowers are very beautiful and Mrs Brown likes them very much.“花兒很美，布朗太太很喜歡它們。”可以得出答案。

筆記整理

1.“妻子”是wife，“丈夫”我們用husband。他們合起來就是一對夫妻，我們用couple。記住啦，Husband+Wife=Couple, 然后他們會生一個baby,叫child，后來又生了一群娃娃叫children。
2.Mr是先生，Mrs是夫人，小姐是Miss。
3.一周有七天，分別是：Monday(周一),Tuesday(周二),Wednesday(周三),Thursday(周四),Friday(周五),Saturday(周六),Sunday(周日)。周一到周五是“工作日”,我們用weekday，周六、周日是“周末”啦，用weekend。
