【解析】

猪是大家都很熟悉的一种动物，人们对它的印象总是又脏又笨，但是其实猪不是这样的。他们本身其实很干净、很聪明、也很友好。有些人饲养比较小的种类的猪作为宠物。

【1】细节理解题。根据短文中They are also very smart. 以及Pigs are very friendly animals可知，猪是一种很聪明而且友好的动物。故应选D。

【2】词义猜测题。根据短文中On farms, they live in dirty places, so they become very dirty. But in the wild, pigs keep themselves very clean可知，这两句话对比的是在农场里的猪和in the wild的猪，因此我们知道in the wild是和在农场意思相反的，故应选A，in nature在自然界。

【3】细节理解题。根据短文中They are also very smart. They may he smarter than clogs. So pigs can learn things from people.可知，猪是很聪明的，他们可以从人们那里学习东西。由此可知B选项是正确的。

【4】细节理解题。根据短文中Some people raise (饲养) them as pets. Of course, people raise the smart kind, not the big kind. Small pigs are very cute. And they don't break things in the house可知，有的人把猪当作宠物来喂养，但是他们养的是小的那种猪，不是大的，这样的猪很可爱，也不会破坏家里的东西。由此可知应选B。

【5】推理判断题。这个题目问的是这篇短文中没有讨论的话题是什么，根据短文第三段的内容可知，这里提到了饲养猪当宠物，故A排除；根据第一段On farms, they live in dirty places, so they become very dirty. But in the wild, pigs keep themselves very clean.可知，这里提到了农场里的猪和野外的猪，故B排除；根据短文开头Many people have the wrong ideas about pigs可以排除D。C选项是饲养狗，这一点在文章中没有涉及。故选C。
