【解析】上周日作者和爷爷去公园玩，他玩得非常开心。在回去的路上，他的爷爷给他讲了他小时候的事情，作者知道了他的生活是多么好，他要好好学习。

1.根据短文的开头Last Sunday，my grandfather took me to the park to play可知，上周日，作者的爷爷带他去公园玩，由此可知时间是Last Sunday。

2.根据短文第二段中He didn’t have time to play after school，and he always helped his parents on the farm可知，作者的爷爷给他讲了他小时候的事情，他放学后没有时间玩，他总是去农场帮助他的父母。由此可知答案。

3.根据短文第二段中He never travelled，because his family didn’t have much money可知，作者的爷爷从来没有旅行过，因为他的家庭没有太多的钱。

4.根据短文第三段中In summer，the weather was very hot and my grandfather often went to the river to play with his friends．They swam and caught(捉)fish in the river可知，在夏天的时候，作者的爷爷和他的朋友们经常去河里游泳、捉鱼。

5.根据短文第三段中At that time，my grandfather had no money to buy toys，so he made toys by himself to play，like spinning tops(陀螺)and sleds(雪橇)可知，他的爷爷没有钱去买玩具，所以他自己制作玩具，如陀螺和雪橇。

点睛：这篇短文中作者讲述了他爷爷小的时候的生活。短文的内容比较简单，有一些生词在短文中给出了汉语的提示，因此学生们在理解的时候不会有很大的困难。短文后有5个问题，我们应根据问题所问的关键词，去原文中寻找答案。例如第1小题，关键词是the time，因此我们去寻找事情发生的时间，在短文的第一句话中作者就告诉了我们；再例如第2小题，提问的是reason，原因，另一个关键词是travelled，因此我们在短文中寻找这两个关键词就可以找到对应的答案。
