参考答案: P20

1. B 由海报内容可知庭院义卖是在7月10日举办，根据常识，7月属于夏季，所以选项B正确。
2. D 活动时间从上午9点到下午5点，总计8个小时。原文“July 10th, 9 a.m.—5 p.m.”明确了活动的开始和结束时间，计算可得持续8小时，所以选项D正确。
3. C 原文提到“Clothing in all sizes, guitars, computers, furniture, bird feeders, tools, toys and more!”，其中明确列举了服装、吉他、电脑等物品，所以选项C正确。选项A中的“Computer games”原文中没有提及；选项B中的“birds”也没有在原文中出现；选项D“Only furniture and bird feeders.”表述太绝对，因为原文还提到了其他很多物品。
4. A 原文最后一句“Help the poor children with our kindness.”说明举办庭院义卖的目的是帮助贫困儿童，所以选项A正确。其他选项B、C、D都与原文表述的活动目的不符。
5. B 这种社区庭院义卖的公告一般会出现在与社区生活相关、能吸引更多潜在参与者的报纸(如社区报纸等)上。根据生活常识，故事书、科学书、计算机书籍这些内容与公告主题不太相关，而报纸是比较可能发布这类社区活动信息的载体，所以选项B正确。
