试题分析：本文讲述了一个爱炫耀的女士，她喜欢告诉别人自己的孩子有多么出色，以致受到别人的反击。这个故事告诉人们炫耀容易引起别人的反感。

1.词义猜测题。根据短文第一段Mr and Mrs Jackson bought a big farm and they were always busy working on it .Jackson夫妻二人买了一个大农场，他们一直忙着在农场上劳作。联系下文，They had a good harvest every year.应是他们每年有一个好的收成，故答案为B。

2.推理判断题。根据短文第一段One of their sons Victor studied at a high school.The boy studied hard and did well in his lessons.

可知他们的一个儿子学习很好，联系下文It made them happy.故答案为A。

3.推理判断题。根据短文She told her friend how clever her son was.She spoke very loudly.All the people on the bus could hear her.“Oxford University,”said Mrs Jackson happily.可知，她是想让每个人知道：她儿子学习好，要去上名牌大学，故选C。

4.推理判断题。根据短文第三段She spoke very loudly.All the people on the bus could hear her.可知，她说得声音很大，车上的所有人都能听到。联系下文，别人也看出了她炫耀的意思，故选B。

5.推理判断题。根据短文第三段On the bus she met one of her friends and they hadn’t seen each other for fifteen years.可推知A不对，在车上她只遇到一个老朋友；并且从文中可知，坐在她对面的女士不是她的朋友，故B不正确；从文中那位女士的几句话“I’m sure he’ll meet Jim White.”“He’s my son,”He is one of the professors(教授）.可推知她的意图是想制止Mrs Jackson谈论她的儿子，让她知道天外有天，故正确答案应为C。

考点：故事类短文阅读。
