答案:
(答案→)A
解析:
文章主要讲的是发生在星期天的伦敦大火的情况。
1. A 细节题。根据The fire started on Sunday moring(大火开始于星期天的上午)可知发生在星期天,故选A。
2. D 此题考查分数的用法。根据文章In four days it destroyed more than three quarters of the old city可知破坏了四分之三,换成百分数为75%,故选D。
3. B 根据where most of those houses were built out of wood可知大部分是朩制的,故选B。
4. C 此题答案出自文章最后一段。根据the king finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path(路线) of the fire及With nothing left to burn可知,由于国王命令人们毁坏火源路线上的建筑物从而切断了火源,以致于没有东西可烧了,故选C。
5. C 细节题的考查。根据In four days it destroyed more than three quarters of the old city及下文可知,大火至少烧了四天,并没有说到半个月,选C。
