It began as a small village beside the River Wensum.Q: The River Wensum flows by Norwich.A、TrueB、FalseC、Not Given【正确答案】A【答案解析】答案选A。答题依据在第二句，Norwich是River Wensum旁边的一 个小村庄，就说明了 River Wensum流经Norwichhusbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A、Unawareness of energy cycles.B、Familiar monologues.C、 A change in a family member's energy cycle.D、Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.【正确答案】A【答案解析】此题的关键是看懂本段的最后一句（即："Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has."),同时联系本段的第四句和第五句(即："For some people the peak comes during the morning.
