試題分析：這篇文章主要講述的是一個人發(fā)明了一臺可以說話的機器，它能用不同的語言告訴人們他的體重是多少。先后有三個人使用了這臺機器，而故事的結(jié)尾很搞笑。

1.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章前兩句A man made a nice talking machine .It could weigh people’s weight 可知這臺機器可以稱人們的體重，然后告訴他們。故選A。

2.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段He put the machine into the waiting room of a station 可知這個人把機器放在了車站的候車室里。故答案選A。

3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段“Good morning ,Madam .”it said in Indian . “Your weight is 72 kilograms .That’s three kilograms more 可知這位印度的女士超重了三公斤。故選B。

4.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段Your weight is 45 kilograms .It’s all right for your age 可知這位中國的女孩體重很合適，身體很健康。故選D。

5.推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段，當那位美國女士站到機器上后，機器馬上說“早上好，請你們其中一個下去好嗎”，可見機器以為站到上面的是兩個人，所以我們可以知道是這位美國女士太重了。管故選C。
