先通读短文，明确每个问题的核心，再回到原文定位对应信息：问题1需找出Amy的所有家庭成员数量；问题2定位Paul的活动；问题3结合妈妈的行为（切水果）推断场所；问题4根据文中时差条件计算法国时间；问题5直接定位白猫的位置。
【解析】
1. 从第一段可知，Amy的家人有Amy、哥哥Paul、爸爸David、姐姐Lisa、妈妈，共5人，故答案为Five；
2. 第一段提到“I am watching a tennis game on the computer with my brother Paul”，说明Paul正在和Amy一起看电脑上的网球赛；
3. 文中提到妈妈在切水果，结合常识，切水果的场所是厨房，故推断妈妈在厨房；
4. 文中说明中国比法国早7小时，当前中国时间是下午3点（15:00），15-7=8，因此法国时间是早上8点；
5. 文中提到“What's this under the table? It's a white cat”，可知白猫在桌子下面。
