解析

试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是一天早上，Brown先生起床晚了，他担心上班迟到，所以路上开车很快，不小心撞到了一辆汽车。Brown先生给了那个司机一瓶酒，他想让他喝醉，这样警察来的时候，就会以为是那个汽车司机引起的事故。
小题1:细节理解题。根据短文的第一句话Mr .Brown got up late this morning.，Mr. Brown今天早上起晚了，而这件事就发生在Mr. Brown 开车上班的路上，故选A。
小题2:推理判断题。根据短文的开头Mr .Brown got up late this morning. He was going to be late for work可知，Mr. Brown 早上起床晚了，他上班也要迟到了，所以他开车很快。故选D。
小题3:细节理解题。根据短文中It was raining hard and the streets were wet. He drove so fast that he didn"t see the red lights. He couldn"t stop his car and hit a car.可知，那天雨下得很大，街道很湿滑，而且他因为快迟到了，所以开车很快以至于没有看见红灯。他不能一下把车停下来，所以撞到了一辆汽车上。故选C。
小题4:推理判断题。根据短文的第二段到第五段的内容可知，Brown 先生在撞到汽车之后，给了汽车司机一瓶酒，因为Brown先生想让他喝醉，这样在警察来的时候，就会以为是那个汽车司机因为喝醉而发生了事故。故选B。
小题5:推理判断题。根据短文的第二段到第五段的内容可知，Brown 先生在撞到汽车之后，给了汽车司机一瓶酒，因为Brown先生想让他喝醉，这样在警察来的时候，就会以为是那个汽车司机因为喝醉而发生了事故。所以是Brown先生愚弄了那个司机。故选D。A和B两个选项在短文中并没有提到；C选项与文意不符，Brown先生并没有喝酒。
