【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是Sam非常喜欢吃鱼，他经常去商店买鱼回家吃。一次他的妻子看见了鱼，邀请她的朋友们来吃掉了。Sam回家后发现鱼没有了，很生气，他也不相信妻子的话，带着猫和妻子来到商店，想称一称猫的重量。

1.B推理判断题。根据One day his wife sees the fish and thinks, “Good! Now, I can ask my friends to have lunch and we can eat the fish. They like fish very much.”可知，Sam的妻子邀请她的朋友们吃了那条鱼，故B是正确的。根据文中Sam likes eating fish very much.可知A不对；C、D两个选项在文中没有提到。

2.C词义猜测题。根据文意可知，Sam买了一条鱼，想回家吃，没想到等他回家的时候，鱼没有了。她的妻子告诉他是猫吃掉了。Sam不相信妻子的话，觉得她在撒谎。tell a lie撒谎，故选C。

3.A细节理解题。根据短文的最后“My fish weighs one kilo. The cat weighs one kilo, too可知，Sam说他的猫中一公斤。由此可知选A。

4.细节理解题。根据短文中When Sam comes home from work in the evening, the fish is not there …Sam is angry.可知，Sam回家后，发现鱼没有了，他的妻子给了他一些面包吃，所以他很生气。故应选D。
