other.

A、theyhadquarreled

B、theyhavequarreled

C、havetheyquarreled

D^hadtheyquarreled

【正確答案】c

排除D項(xiàng)。

fivecentenariansliveinaveryfriendlycommunity.

A、True

B、False

C、NotGiven

【正確答案】C

【答案解析】答案選Co題目說的是"這五位百歲老人生活在一個(gè)非常友好的社

區(qū)”，文章開頭部分提到了"community（社區(qū)）”，但該句并沒有說這五位百歲老人

生活的社區(qū)是否是一個(gè)友好的社區(qū)，因此判斷問題句的信息在文章中沒有提到。
