解析

试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是Clock先生喜欢收集钟表，他收集了1,500个钟表。但是Clock夫人却不喜欢这个爱好，她每天都要清理几百个钟表，而且无论白天还是晚上她都能听到报点声，更气人的是，虽然她家里到处是表，但是她却不知道准确的时间。
小题1:细节理解题。根据短文第一段but do you know the collection of clocks? My friend Mr. Clock, a short man, has the hobby.你知道有收集钟表的吗？我的朋友Mr. Clock就有这个爱好。由此可知，Mr. Clock喜欢收集钟表。故选D。
小题2:细节理解题。根据短文第一段的最后一句话He has one thousand five hundred clocks.可知，他收集了1,500个钟表。故选B。
小题3:词义猜测题。根据短文中划线词所在的句子So she can hear the chimes almost any time day and night.可知，Clock先生的夫人无论在白天还是晚上任何一个时间都能听到报点声。这句话中有hear这个词，意思是听到，故这里划线的这个词应该指的是报点声。故选Ａ。
小题4:细节理解题。根据短文最后一段的内容可知，Clock夫人每天都在抱怨，因为it is not easy to clean hundreds of clocks清理几百个钟表是很不容易的，以及she can hear the chimes almost any time day and night，任何时候她都能听到报点声，和she is never able to know the correct time她总是不知道准确的时间。结合这三个地方可知，选D。
小题5:推理判断题。根据短文最后一段的第一句话Mr. Clock likes his large collection of clocks, but his wife , Mrs. Clock does not enjoy them at all.可知，Clock先生喜欢他的收集，但是Clock夫人根本就不喜欢。故选B。
