試題分析：本文實(shí)際上一是一則廣告，介紹了Willa Nicoletta這個(gè)度假勝地。

1.D 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)4,5行bedrooms—$5700 /week (8 people max)和Sleep sofa can add additional 2 people $ 200/night原來有8人，加床2人，那么一共10人，故D正確。

2.A 計(jì)算題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二行★4 bedrooms—$6300/week(8 people max)可知8口之家一個(gè)星期6300。那么2個(gè)星期就是$12,600，故Ａ正確。

3.B 推理題。根據(jù)第二段1,2行Villa Nicoletta is a 4 bedroom luxury villa and an oasis(綠洲) of rest and rejuvenation（恢復(fù)活力） in a land of unspoiled peace．說明這個(gè)地方很安靜祥和，故B正確。

4.C 推斷題。根據(jù)Off Season: April 16 to December 14說明在4月到12月是不營(yíng)業(yè)的，故春天也就是1月到4月是開放季節(jié)，故C正確。

5.A 推理題。根據(jù)本句how the sky twinkles like billions of flawless diamonds at night．說明像鉆石一樣璀璨，那么該詞應(yīng)該是指A正確。
