1.细节题。动物园的开园时间Opening Time: 9: 00a. m. ~4: 00p. m. Except Fridays: 10: 00a. m. ~3: 00p. m.可知BC时，动物园还没有开放；A项的时间是动物园刚刚看法的时候，不如D合适。

2.计算题。一个大人1.2+1.2的百分之80=2；另外一个10岁的不需要买票。故B正确。

3.推理题。根据DO NOT FEED,TOUCH OR GO NEAR THE ANIMALS!可知ABC都是不能允许的事情。

4.推理题。根据the giraffes from Zambia are waiting to look down on you.可知长颈鹿一定比较高，才会向下看着你。

5.推测词义题。根据下文的like a wolf可知这是一种像狼一样的食肉动物。故C正确。
