Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．C;3．A;4．D;5．C;
解析：

(1)	細節理解題。由第三段中…I would like to wish all our radio friends a very Happy New Year!可知這是一檔廣播節目。
(2)	推測理解題。在這檔廣播節目中，主持人在向我們介紹一首名為Auld Lang Syne的歌曲。那么主持人是誰呢?由短文最后一句This is Buddy Thomas．知，Buddy Thomas就是節目主持人，故選擇C。
(3)	細節理解題。由第一段第三句It is the traditional music played during the New Year's celebration．知，應該選擇A．
(4)	推測理解題。由第二段最后兩句知，1796年蘇格蘭詩人Robert Bums出版過Auld Lang Syne的一個版本，但我們今天所知的詞曲版本出現在其三年后，即1799年的一個歌集中。
(5)	推測理解題。通讀全文可知，節目主要介紹了Auld Lang Syne這首歌曲的起源，但這首歌本身的意義在于緬懷老友。
