Answer 1

【小題1】B
【小題1】E
【小題1】A
【小題1】C解析:

【小題1】我們發現有關鍵詞"Born"與age、five years old相呼應。再看空格的前兩句內容提到They are all five years old. Why are they all the same age? 結合常理我們能夠得到他們應該是同時出生的。分析五個選項，排除不符合前后文意思內容的選項。再通過后文說They are septuplets!(七胞胎)第二個選項明顯符合先后文的因果關系，故選B。
【小題1】先看單詞，look after復現。看空的前后，前文說同時照顧七個寶寶是個艱辛的工作，后文說起初有很多人幫助他們。前后邏輯是相反的，所以中間應該有轉折。再看選項，把各個選項實在帶入只有E符合前后行文順序其它的內容均與該空無關，故選E。
【小題1】首先注意關鍵詞they 的指代，前文說到他們每天需要大量的尿布，而把所有選項帶入后發現只有A選項與原文空格位置邏輯順序相符。故選A。其他選項與前文所描述內容不能有效聯系，所以不選。
【小題1】關鍵詞復現：Bobbi和關鍵詞替換原文中的teach與選項中的teacher,從邏輯看，帶入C，去年Bobbi 是 Mikayla的老師，與下文現在她是所有孩子的老師成順承關系。同時注意空格后一句的內容。把選項C帶入前后文所描述的內容一致。故選C。其它選項與本題前后內容描述不一致邏輯不一致，故不選。
