细节推理题。根据“They can’t go outside if they are not allowed to. Nearly all the students in boarding schools wear a school uniform” 学生不经过允许不能外出，大多数寄宿学校都有熄灯时间，几乎所有的学生要穿校服，可以判断学校有一些严厉的制度，故答案选B。

【5】B

词义猜测题。根据该单词后的句子including music rooms，boats，swimming pools，cinemas and theatres．包括音乐教室，船，游泳池，电影院和剧场；这些都是属于设施场所，故推测其意为设施，故选B。
