試題分析：通過閱讀短文我們可以知道史密斯先生是個愛喝酒的人，因為喝酒問題差點被解雇。在承諾不喝酒后，又因為喝酒燙傷了耳朵，很能被老板推斷出他又喝了酒的事實。所以他可能面臨被解雇的結(jié)局。
小題1:根據(jù)But he couldn’t work when he drank too much.And once he almost fell into the river可知選B。
小題2:根據(jù)I went to watch a football match yesterday和上文One Monday morning Mr Smith came into the office可知時間是星期日，故選D。
小題3:通過短文后半部分對史密斯兩只耳朵受傷原因的表述，可知他肯定是又喝了酒，正常人是不會犯下那樣的錯誤的，故選A。
小題4:通過閱讀短文我們可以知道史密斯先生把烙鐵當作了電話，雖然燙傷了兩只耳朵，但是只有一個烙鐵，故選C。
小題5:通過閱讀短文我們知道前面史密斯已經(jīng)承諾不再喝酒，從他耳朵燙傷這件事，布萊克先生很容易推斷出他又喝了酒。從四個選項的描述上來看，他被解雇的可能性最大，故選D。
點評：本文各小題出的很有針對性，答案需要根據(jù)相關(guān)信息推斷出來，故需要認真閱讀短文，在讀懂全文后在著手回答問題。
