【解析】Peter16岁了，他很开心，因为他可以在一个有驾照的成年人的陪同下学习开车了。他的妈妈教他开车，学了两周之后，Peter的妈妈觉得Peter开得很好，就让他去高速公路上开，但是Peter很害怕，高速公路上车很多，速度也很快。他的妈妈鼓励他，让他相信自己能够做到。

1.细节理解题。根据短文的第一段Peter is an American. Today is his 16th birthday. He feels very happy today because he can drive with an adult (成人) if the adult has a driver’s license可知，Peter16岁了，可以在大人的陪同下开车了。由此可知应选A。

2.细节理解题。根据短文第二段中They go driving every Wednesday and Sunday.可知，Peter和他的妈妈每个周三和周日去开车。因此应选B。

3.推理判断题。根据短文第三段中Peter is afraid. Many cars are on the freeway and they are very quick. Peter doesn’t like driving on busy freeways and driving quickly. It’s never easy for him可知，Peter害怕在高速公路上开车，因为那里车很多，速度也很快，他觉得这对于他来说是不容易的。never easy不容易，也就是difficult，故选C。

4.推理判断题。根据短文最后Peter的妈妈说的话可以知道，她鼓励Peter在高速公路上开车，告诉他就像这些天他们练习的那样开车就行。所以Peter的妈妈相信他的儿子能在高速公路上开好车。故应选D。这句话中的make it意思是成功做到某事。

5.推理判断题。根据短文第三段中Peter doesn’t like driving on busy freeways and driving quickly.可知，Peter不喜欢开车速度很快，故A不对；根据短文第三段Many cars are on the freeway可知，高速公路上的车很多，故B不对；根据After about two weeks, Peter’s mom says they can go driving on the freeway可知，Peter的妈妈教他学了两周，故D不对；根据短文第一段because he can drive with an adult (成人) if the adult has a driver’s license以及第二段Peter’s mom teaches him how to drive可知，Peter可以和一个有驾照的成年人一起开车，教他开车的是他的妈妈，由此可知，他的妈妈有驾驶执照。故C是正确的。

点睛：这是一篇记叙文，短文中讲述了Peter学习开车的经历。后面的题目主要涉及了细节理解和推理判断这两个题型。细节理解题型是要求我们根据文章中的细节，完成题目，考查我们对细节的理解，做这种题型的时候，我们应在题目中先找到一个关键词，根据关键词定位到原文相对应的地方，结合选项，做出选择。例如第二题，题目中问的是when，因此我们要找出文章中有关时间的词，选项里都是表示星期的单词，第一个字母都是大写的，这样我们在文章中寻找的时候，这些单词也比较醒目，容易找。推理判断题较难一些，我们需要根据全文的主要大意和文章的一些细节，还要结合选项，进行分析、对比，从而得出正确答案。例如第5 题，我们应先读懂每一个选项的意思，然后定位到原文，逐一判断正误，直到得出正确的答案。
