本篇文章难度适中，主要介绍一个药品说明书，包括治疗的疾病、剂量以及注意事项。

1.细节理解题。根据You must obey the following dose each time“你需要遵守以下的剂量”以及下文中的剂量可知，你应该仔细阅读说明书，故选C。

2.细节理解题。根据6-10 years old 2 teaspoonfuls“6至10岁的小孩建议服用两茶匙”可知，8至9岁的小孩符合题意，故选C。

3.推理判断题。根据Repeat above dose every 1/2 hours to 1 if needed until 8 doses are taken“如果需要的话，每半个小时至一个小时重复上面的剂量直到服用8个剂量”可知，成年人4个小时可服用8个剂量，故选A。

4.推理判断题。根据Put in a cool, dry and clean place. Keep away from sunlight and the reach of children“放在阴凉、干燥、清洁的地方。避免阳光照射和避免儿童够得到的地方”可知，A项“在厨房中没有阳光的地方”孩子可能拿得到，排除A；B项“靠近窗户干净的地方”会被阳光晒到，排除B；C项“在卧室干净的抽屉里”小孩可能会拿到，所以排除C；D项“在架子顶部的一个医药箱里”符合题意，故选D。

5.细节理解题。根据If you do not get better, see a doctor please“如果你没有变好，请去看医生”可知，如果药不起作用的话，要去看医生。故选B。

6.推理判断题。on the bottles of medicine在药瓶上；on the wall in the drug store在要点的墙上；in the newspaper在报纸上；in the hospital在医院。根据Reading the instruction (说明) of the medicine before you take it“在吃这个药之前，请读药的说明”、Put in a cool, dry and clean place. Keep away from sunlight and the reach of children“放在阴凉、干燥、清洁的地方。避免阳光照射和避免儿童够得到的地方”以及全文可知，包含治疗的疾病、剂量以及注意事项，所以可以在药瓶上看到，故选A。
