试题分析：这是一则笑话故事。一位平日里坏习惯缠身的公交售票员今天却给一位抱着三岁小孩的女士热情欢迎，还叫其他乘客为她母子俩腾出空间。乘客们都对售票员的行为感到奇怪，纷纷调侃他，说要让记者来采访他。最后才发现售票员是这三岁孩子的爸爸。
【小题1】D.细节推断题。定位到第一段最后一句“You know this conductor used to be very rude.Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior.”一个中年乘客说这位售票员过去很粗鲁，现在突然改变了他的坏习惯。由此可知，乘客们对售货员的友好行为感到惊讶（surprised）。故选D。
【小题2】B.细节理解题。定位到第二段第一行，根据“he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company”可知：写信到公交公司是为了表扬和感谢售票员他对乘客（the woman and a child）友好热情服务的行为。故选B（对售票员的优质服务表示感谢）。
【小题3】C.信息推断题。定位到第三段，根据定语从句“a gentleman who looked like a teacher ”看起来像个老师的gentleman，可排除A选项。结合第三段的信息我们无从推断gentleman的身份。故选C（从故事无从知晓）。
【小题4】B.信息推断题。结合第三段内容“Excuse me，but can I know your name，Please？Your excellent service must be praised…”可知是gentleman问售票员的话，定位至第四段首句“Before he could open his mouth”可知是售票员正准备张口回答gentleman的话。故he指代the conductor。因此选B。
【小题5】C.内容理解题。结合文章最后一句“I know his name.I called him Dad.”可知售票员是三岁孩子的爸爸，他之所以热情接待女士母子俩，是因为他们仨是一家人。因此平日里坏习惯缠身的售票员他不好的习惯行为并没有改变。故选C（他并没有改变对乘客粗鲁的行为）。
