1. 根据短文第一段“He began to go to school when he was six,and now he is in Grade Three.”可知，Peter6岁入学，现在上三年级，所以他上学3年了，选C。
2. 由第一段“He likes watching TV in the evening and goes to bed late, so he can't get up on time in the morning.”可知，Peter经常迟到是因为他喜欢晚上看电视，睡觉晚导致早上起不来，选A。
3. 根据第二段“This term, Mrs Black, Peter's aunt, works in Peter's school. She is strict with Peter and often tells the boy to obey the school rules...”以及她在学校门口等Peter并指出他迟到的内容，可推断Mrs Black是老师，选B。
4. 从第二段“When he hurried to school, it was a quarter past eight. 'You are ten minutes late for the first class, Peter,' Mrs Black said angrily.”可知，Peter8点15分到校，迟到10分钟，所以第一节课8点05分开始，即five past eight，选C。
