【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍美国威斯康辛州的四个景点，主要介绍景点的地址，开放时间和特点。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。文中Wisconsin Historical Museum的地址为“30 N. Carroll Street on Madison’s Capitol Square”，故选D项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章“Open: daily. 8:15 am—4:00 pm.”可知，Christopher Columbus Museum的开放时间为每天的上午8：15-下午4：00，因此只有它为周日开放，其余景点的开放时间都不包含周日，故选B项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。文中Swiss Historical Village
开放时间为Open: Tue.—Fri., May 1st—October 31st, 10:00 am-4:00 pm.，正好半年时间，A选项正确；参观Christopher Columbus Museum并未提到可以俯瞰到一条河，而“While visiting, enjoy a wonderfully prepared lunch at our café overlooking the Sugar River.” 在参观时，在我们的咖啡馆享受一个美妙的午餐，还可以俯瞰Sugar River，B选项不正确；文中在Wisconsin Historical Museum景点，“Admission is free”，门票免费，C选项不正确；Gallery open: Tue.—Sat., 10:00 am—5:00 pm. Café open: Wed.—Sat., 11:00 am—3:00 pm. Gallery的开放时间是每天7个小时，Café的开发时间是每天4个小时，D选项也不正确，因此利用排除法，应该选A。
【点睛】应用文中题目多为细节理解题，定位关键词适用于解答细节理解题。通过定位关键词解题，考生在阅读题干时，把题干中有标记意义的词或词组划记出来，或者选项中的关键词，然后用这个词回到原文当中定位。如小题1题干中的Capitol Square，再如小题2中Sunday，可以帮助快速找出答案。
