【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：該文介紹了周杰倫的成長(zhǎng)故事。他在很小的時(shí)候就表現(xiàn)出了對(duì)音樂的愛好，盡管長(zhǎng)的不是很帥，但是有自己的風(fēng)格，很受歌迷的喜歡。

1.文中He grew up with his mother, and was a quiet and shy kid. He didn’t do well in study,以及As a small child, Jay took a great interest in music的描述可知他跟著他的母親長(zhǎng)大，是一個(gè)安靜的、非常害羞的孩子。他他學(xué)習(xí)成績(jī)不好，但作為一個(gè)小孩子，周杰倫對(duì)音樂很感興趣。所以該選C。

2.文中His mother sent him to learn the piano when he was only three years old.及上文Jay Chou was born on January 18,1979, in Taiwan, China.的描述可知他的媽媽送他去學(xué)鋼琴時(shí)，他只有三歲，而他出生在1979年，計(jì)算可知1979+3=1982，所以該選A。

3.文中For two years, he spent most of his time writing for singers. Some of them were very famous, like Coco Less and Jacky Cheung.描述可知兩年來(lái)，他大部分時(shí)間寫歌。他們中的一些人是很著名的，像可可少和張學(xué)友。所以該選D。

4.文中he is still shy and doesn’t speak clearly when he sings or talks,but he has a lot of fans.可知當(dāng)他唱或交談的時(shí)候他還是害羞，說(shuō)話不清楚，但是他有很多粉絲，所以該選B。

5.根據(jù)短文描述可知周杰倫有許多粉絲，說(shuō)話不太清楚，并且他的歌曲與其他人不同。聯(lián)系常識(shí)可知對(duì)于周杰倫長(zhǎng)得很好看的描述與原文不符。故選可知該選A。
