Answer 1

答案：1．C;2．A;3．B;4．D;5．A;
解析：

(1)	文章第二句：I work for Universal Telephone Company．
(2)	文中的第四句：My hours are from 9 o’clock to 5 o’clock.可以知道每周五天，每天从上午九点到下午五点。
(3)	从文章后半部分可以得知他钥匙不见了，并怀疑是孩子吞下去了。
(4)	答案在最后一段倒数第二句His wife found the keys in her bag．
(5)	文章的第三句My job at UTC is an interesting one。从第一段的第四句看，I do a lot of things.所以与B选项中的only不符，其他两个与文章不符。
