  答案及解析：

  1. A。根據Shlander is a man from space. He thinks the people and things on the earth are very strange（Shlander是個太空人，他認為地球上的人和物非常奇怪）就能確定正確選項。

  2. B。根據 Now I am in a strange world. It is very nice. There are many new things here. There are many earth monsters here, too. The earth monsters look very funny（我到了一個陌生的世界中，這個世界非常優美，有許多要學的新東西，也有許多地球怪物，這些怪物看起來挺有趣）就能確定正確選項。

  3. D。根據They have just one head, two arms and two legs. They have thin black strings on their heads. Some earth monsters have brown or yellow strings. The earth monsters have a hole in their face（地球怪物只有一個頭，兩只胳膊兩條腿，頭上有又黑又細的繩子，有的是棕色，有的是黃色，臉上還有一個洞），顯然，前三個選項都是人類的特征，都不能被選。

  4. C。根據Every day, they put nice things and balls from the trees into the hole. They put water into the hole, too（每天他們把好東西和從樹上摘下來的球放進洞里，也往洞里放水）就能確定正確選項（from www.zkenglish.com）。

  5. C。根據At night, the earth monsters like to look at a square window box. This box has very small earth monsters in it（夜里，地球怪物喜歡看一個方形的窗臺上的花盆箱，這個箱子非常小，有地球怪物在里面）就能斷定文章中的方盒子就是一臺電視機。
