答案及解析：

1. B

分析：该题考察考生推理判断的能力。原文中有种种迹象表明World Book是一个邮购书的俱乐部。如：第二段提到了…plus a total of $1.95 towards postage and packing…我们知道postage(邮资)和packing(包裹)都是邮寄物品时才用到的词。从第三段的第二句话也可以看出来。

2. D

分析：此题考察的是细节。答案就在上题中提到的第三段第二句话。另外也可以用排除法：A提到了折扣，课文提到的是never less than 25 per cent,并不是选项中的often 80%. B, C都没有在文中提及，注意识别这类干扰项。

3. A

分析：此题考察考生判断推理的能力。大家可以看第五段第三句，这句话中提到：the lasted on cookery, gardening, and other popular hobbies,从这句话可以推断一般的家庭会对这些书籍感兴趣。

4. D

分析：此题有一定的难度。我们采取排除法。A 的错误之处在于并不是每个月，而是千半年的每个月;B这种情况不一定，假设前半年每个月至少买一本书(all we ask is that you choose at least one book a month during your first six months),有可能以后每个月都不买(after, it’s up to you how many, or how few, you choose),也就是说不买也是允许的，如果是这种情况，这一年买的书就不是more than 6了;D属于典型的无中生有的干扰项，文中并未提及。所以D是正确选项。意思是：World Book的会员在第一年一定要买够最低限度的书。

5. B

分析：这又是一个细节题。从最后一段第一句可以找到答案。
