解析

试题分析：本文介绍了教师招聘广告
小题1:细节题：根据第二段最后一句中的“we need classroom teachers and subject teachers to teach Science, PE, and Music in English”可知并非只招语言老师，故A、C两项错误。根据Dates and Duration部分可知均在上海工作，故选D。
小题2:细节题：根据文章倒数第二段的“We will offer you part or full international travel allowances depending on how long you will work for us”可知C项正确，即凡是被录用人员均会根据聘期长短给予部分或全额旅游津贴。根据Working Conditions and Environment部分可知学校将提供教材，故A项错误。B项应是人民币，而非美元。根据文章倒数第二段的“ we will pay you a return ticket for one year contract”可知只要签署一年合同的就会免费获得返程机票，故D项错误。
小题3:细节题：根据Basic requirements for the Positions部分第二点可知第一和第二个职位需要应聘人有学士及以上学位，而题目中的a classroom teacher正是第一个职位，故B项正确。A、D两项文中没有提到。由于第一个职位是教小学的，故C项也不正确。故选B。
小题4:推断题： novel小说；travel guide旅游手册； news report新闻报道；Website网站。有文中内容可知是招聘广告，故选D
