阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容选择最佳答案。 Dear Sir, 　　I read your article(of the 4th of February)about the cost living in the country rather than the town, and I agree with most of the points that you made．My husband and I lived in the middle of Horlton until two years ago－a seaside town of nearly five hundred thousand people．When my husband stopped working, we moved to our present house in a small village at the foot of Roland Hill, and our costs are higher now． 　　I have to do my shopping in small shops, where the food is more expensive than in city supermarket; it costs more to travel by bus; and because the men who come to mend the TV set．or the washing machine, have to come further, we have to pay them more． 　　But it does not cost us as much to enjoy what is beautiful in the country; and peace and quiet are cheap．Many people spend a good deal of time and money driving into the country to enjoy the simple things of life; yet we can enjoy them just by going out of the front door．It costs more to live here than it did in Horlton, but now life is really worth living． Yours faithfully, Edith Randall(Mrs) (1) The article was about whether(是否)________． [　　] A． it costs more to live in one country rather than another B． it costs more to move from the town to the country than the other ground C． it's better for old people to live in the town, or the country D． it's more expensive to live in the country than in the town (2) Horlton was a ________． [　　] A． big city B． very small town beside the sea C． town of nearly half a million people D． small village until two years ago (3) Since the Randalls move to their present house ________． [　　] A． their cost of living has grown up B． life is not as expensive as it was before C． Roland Hill has grown higher D． Mr．Randall has made more money (4) It costs more to live in the country because ________． [　　] A． the men who mended the television have to come by bus B． food costs more in small shops C． the television goes wrong more often in the country D． Mrs．Randall has to travel by bus to the city market (5) To enjoy what is beauty, the Randalls ________． [　　] A． have to drive only for a short time B． simply walk out of their front door C． spend time and money D． can have none of the simple things of life
