【解析】

试题分析：美国是一个面积很大的国家。在冬季，北方的天气很冷，南部地区的气温可能会超过27℃。在夏季，南部的气温很高，而北方的气温很凉爽。同时降雨在全国也是不同的。在西部地区雨量少。在南部的部分地区雨量大。

1.1】细节理解题。问题：如果一个国家是非常大的，在这个国家的不同部分的天气会如何？通过阅读短文，明确提到一个国家很大，那么它的天气在全国的不同地方也是不同的。明确答案为第三项。故选C

2.2】细节理解题。问题：冬季的时候，在这个国家的南部，你不能看到什么？联系原文：In parts of the South(南部), in the winter, the temperature(气温) might be over 27℃. 句意：在冬季，南部地区的气温可能会超过27℃。结合选项，在零上27度以上的时候，不可能出现的情况是雪和冰。故选C

3.每个部分的气温都是不同的，因此第四项符合题意。故选D

4.

5. 在这个国家的哪一部分雨量很大？联系原文：The rain is also very different in the country. In parts of the West there is little rain. In parts of the South there is much rain. 句意：降雨在全国也是不同的。在西部地区雨量少。在南部的部分地区雨量大。 故选B
