解析

试题分析：文章讲述了一个人在等车时，由于没有地方坐，他去咖啡馆坐了一会，在这期间他从镜子里看表，最后耽误了搭车的故事。
小题1:细节理解题。根据短文第一段最后一句Tom looked around but there was no place for him to sit的描述可知，Tom进入车站咖啡厅的原因是他找不到可坐的座位。故应选B。
小题2:判断推理题。根据常识可知，（自己画个表，反过来就行，在镜子里左右反，上下不反）所以选A。
小题3:判断推理题。根据twenty to twelve和Half past twelve可以知道镜子里的时间慢，所以选C。
小题4:细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句Since then Tom has never liked mirrors的描述可知，Tom只在镜子里看过一次时钟。故应选B
小题5:细节理解题。联系上下文，本文主要讲述在镜子里看错表，从而导致耽误了搭车的故事，可知应选C。
