Answer 1

答案：A;B;C;A;D
解析：

(1) 解析：原文第一句提到了"印度大象"和"美洲老虎"。 (2) 解析：Mrs Green是成年人，票价是2美元，13岁的女儿属于12岁以上的儿童，票价应该是1美元，9岁的女儿在12岁以下，免票。故2美元＋1美元＝3美元。 (3) 解析：opening time一栏提到的开放时间，平时是9：00 a. m. --4：00 p. m，只有周五是10：00 a. m. --3：00 p. m. 。 (4) 解析：长颈鹿身材高大，总是低头看人，好像在轻视你。 (5) 解析：原文最后两行特别提醒大家：要保持动物园的卫生，不能触摸动物或离动物太近，不能乱给动物投食。只有D项违反了规定。
