4.C 细节理解题。根据短文中He goes to work by car at eleven o’clock以及It takes ten minutes to get the radio station.可知，Scott每天开车去上班，需要花费10分钟，也就是Scott的家离电台是开车10分钟的路程，ten-minute-drive开车10分钟的路程，是复合形容词，minute不能用复数，故应该选C。

5.C 细节理解题。根据短文中He brushes his teeth and takes a shower at ten past eight.可知，Scott在8点过10分的时候洗澡。ten past eight 相当于eight ten 8点10分。故选C。
