  • 1. (2017八下·姜堰期末) 根据上面的短文,回答问题:(No more than five words)。   

        In a cold winter, a couple had to move out from the luxury (豪华的) house because of bankruptcy(破产). The husband worked day and night to support the family but with no care of his wife. So she thought, "He doesn't love me any more. He just cares about his business ...... not me".

        One day, she began to take a bath, but he stopped her at the door, "Let me take it first, okay?"

        "Why not let me shower first," she asked.

        "I was tired, sweetie! You take it later, okay?" She was totally discouraged. (泄气的)

        On a tiring day, she found nothing to do and turned on his computer, a few words blurred(使……模糊)her eyes. It was his diary:

        Today, I was quite sad. She asked me why I was always taking the bath first, and I said to her that I was tired out. She was unhappy, in her mind, to think I treated her not as well as usual. But what can I do? I was not as rich as before! We moved to the small apartment, and there was only a shower in the bathroom. It was so cold to take a shower in such a freezing winter. But I found that if one person took the shower first, the room could get warmer, so every time I rushed to the bathroom first. I was thinking that, when she took the shower, the room would get warmer, at least 1℃, 2℃ or 3℃. Now I can't give her comfortable life, bring her the luxury restaurant, buy expensive dresses for her, but at least, I can give her 1℃ love.

        After reading the diary, the wife was deeply moved.

    1. (1) When did the couple move into the small apartment?
    2. (2) Why did the husband work day and night?
    3. (3) What did the husband do one day when the wife began to take a bath?
    4. (4) Why did the husband take shower first every time?
    5. (5) How did the wife know the husband's real reason for taking shower first?
