Answer 1

【小题1】B

【小题2】D

【小题3】C

【小题4】D

【小题5】B

解析:

【小题1】写作意图题。由最后一段提供的联系方式以及从文章开头一段看出，这是一篇广告，因此其目的应该是吸引更多学生。故选B。

【小题2】细节理解题。从文章第一段to gain work experience, to practise their English and to get a better insight into the British social and cultural life可知，到英国挣钱不是此项目所提供的，故答案为选D。

【小题3】细节理解题。根据文章中间部分的各项条件可知C项正确。

【小题4】细节理解题。文章最后一段的联系方式未提到A项，故答案为D项。

【小题5】正误判断题。根据参加此项目的条件之一“Be able to work in the UK for a period of at least two months”可判断B项正确。根据第一段began in 1991可知A项错误；根据A representative of E.W.E.P. will be available during your stay to help you and you will get a 24 hours help line service during your stay可知你可以得到24小时电话帮助，故C项错误。而D项的费用是项目所要求的，没谈到可以不交。
