试题分析：本文讲述的是在商店上班的杰克有一天在回家的路上遇到一个叫玛丽的他曾经的同学。他们相谈甚欢，一起去了杰克的家，聊天到很晚。半夜十二点，女孩提出看时间，杰克和女孩都没有手表。于是杰克想出来一个办法——用脚使劲跺地板，住在他楼下的老奶奶生气地冲他们喊：“半夜十二点，为何杰克你要在楼上跳？“他们才知道是半夜十二点。

1. is a twenty-year-old young man. Two years ago, when he finished middle school, he found work in a shop. 可以判定.句意：杰克是一个二十岁的年轻人。两年前，当他读完高中，他在商店找了份工作。故选B

2. is very tired when he gets home. After a quick supper he goes to bed and soon falls asleep. His grandma who lives downstairs is satisfied with (满意) him.可以推断。句意：当他回到家时，他感觉非常累。简单的吃过一个晚饭后，他就上床睡觉并且很快的进入梦乡。住在他楼下的奶奶对他很满意。题目问的是：杰克楼下的奶奶为什么对他很满意。据分析应该不难推出：因为杰克每天回家生活的很简单，没有一点吵闹。故选C.

3. they talked about their school, teachers, classmates and their future (未来).句意：他们谈了许多有关他们学校，老师，同学的事情，并且展望了一下他们的未来。不难分析出他们是同班同学的关系。故选A.
