Our school doesn’t have many parties, but this year Ms Cipriano said we could have one. The fourth grade wanted the theme to be “Under the Sea”, but the fifth grade wanted it to be “Outer Space”. After a long discussion, it was decided to be the former one.
Everyone had to be on a team, and everyone had to help do something. My team was in charge of special effects. Gary came up with a great idea. He got two big, old fishing nets which were once used by his father when he went fishing on the sea. Gary, Jemma, and I used ropes to tie the nets to the ceiling of the dining hall, and it looked really great. Then we cut out fish shapes from colored paper and stuck them on the nets.
Everyone seemed to go to the party in one of three costumes: some kind of fish, a mermaid, or Neptune — the “King of the Sea”.
The dining hall looked great. Jemma’s father had put up colored lights for us. We were feeling proud of our work when the disaster happened. The nets fell down. We were all caught in the fish nets. We were laughing so hard that we couldn’t stand up. We truly felt as if we were “under the sea”. This wasn’t the effect we imagined, but it was special!
根據(jù)材料內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案，并將其標(biāo)號填入題前括號內(nèi)。

解析試題分析：這篇短文主要介紹了作者的隊(duì)為晚會做特效，當(dāng)他們正在為他們所做的工作自豪時，頂上的漁網(wǎng)掉了下來，他們被罩在了網(wǎng)里。這不是他們要的特效，但是這卻使他們感到特別的高興。
【小題1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段The fourth grade wanted the theme to be “Under the Sea”,故選B
【小題2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段He got two big, old fishing nets which were once used by his father when he went fishing on the sea.他得到了兩個又大又舊的漁網(wǎng)，那是他的父親曾經(jīng)在海上去釣魚用的。由此推斷他的父親是個漁夫，故選D。
【小題3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段Then we cut out fish shapes from colored paper and stuck them on the nets.
可知them指代上句中的彩色紙剪出的魚的形狀。故選C。
【小題4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段We were laughing so hard that we couldn’t stand up.可知他們是高興的，故選A。
【小題5】歸納理解題。根據(jù)短文的主旨大意可知主要描述了他們舉行的聚會的事情，故選B.
