【分析】
这是一道英语图表阅读理解题，解题思路如下：首先明确图表标题是“Doing household chores”，图例中灰色代表女孩、白色代表男孩，横轴为参与百分比，纵轴是家务种类。然后逐个分析题目：1题考查词义猜测，需匹配“household chores”的含义；2题找最受欢迎的家务，需对比各家务的男孩女孩参与百分比；3题数家务种类，直接数纵轴项目；4题找男孩参与超40%的家务，看男孩白色条形的百分比；5题根据Jim的目的推理他的行为。
【解析】
1. 词义猜测题：“household chores”意为“家务”，A选项homework是家庭作业，B选项housework是家务，C选项handwork是手工，D选项in the house是在房子里，故选B。
2. 细节理解题：观察图表，“Watering flowers”对应的男孩、女孩参与百分比均接近100%，是所有家务中最高的，是孩子们最喜欢的家务，故选A。
3. 细节理解题：数纵轴的家务项目，分别是整理床铺、洗衣服、扫地、擦窗户、洗碗、浇花，共6种，故选B。
4. 细节理解题：看男孩的白色条形，“Sweeping the floor”的男孩占比约50%，超过40%；其他选项中，洗衣服男孩约15%、擦窗户约15%、洗碗约25%，均未超40%，故选C。
5. 推理判断题：题干提到Jim想向同学学习在家做好，因此他会多做家务帮助父母，对应A选项，故选A。
