【解析】

试题分析：文章是关于参观狄更斯博物馆的展品及其开放时间、门票、使用、租用、交通等有关信息。

1.B推理（文章出处）题。根据文章倒数第三段最后一句“Click here to visit all the rooms in the Museum online”和文章倒数第一段“For a map, please click here”中的“click（点击）, online（在线的）”可推断出此文章来自网址，故B正确。

2.D 细节题。由题干关键词“save”定位把答案定位于文章“Admission Charges”部分，由“ Adults: ￡5．00;…Children: ￡3．00; Families:￡14．00（ 2 adults & up to five children）”可知“这一家各自去参观，要花费：2*5+5*3=25英镑；买家庭票只要14英镑”，所以买家庭票可节约11英镑，故D正确。

3.D细节题。故D正确。由题干关键词“the Museum, find”定位把答案定位于文章第一段，该段第三句明确指出“…visitors can see paintings, rare editions, manuscripts,…”，即“…游客可以看绘画，珍本，手稿…”，由此可知，答案A、B、C都有，D项在文中未讲到，故选D。

4.A细节题。故A正确。做此类正误判断细节题的技巧是把选项与原文一一比较。A“这博物馆与大英博物馆不远”在文章最后一段“The British Museum and the Foundling Museum are within walking distance”提到，A项是此句原文的同义转述，故为正确答案。B“17:00后，在任何情况下都不能参观博物馆”与文章“Special opening times can be arranged for groups, who may wish to book a private view”不符，不正确；C“视力差的游客不能享受参观博物馆”与文章“…an audio tour for visitors with impaired (受损的） vision．Our Handling Sessions are also suitable for the visually impaired”相矛盾，故不正确；D“任何人不能雇用博物馆进行其他活动”与文章倒数第二段“The Museum can be hired for private functions, performances soirees（社交晚会）  and many other social occasions”相矛盾，故不正确。

5.C主旨大意（写作目的）题。本文的主旨大意是要根据各段的主题句概括而出。首段讲了“查尔斯狄更斯博物馆里的展品”，接着依次讲了“狄更斯博物馆开放时间，门票，使用，租用，交通”，由此可知本文围绕“狄更斯博物馆有关信息”展开，故C正确。
