答案：BCBCA

解析：

1. 题目问的是“又传来了一阵敲门声时，为什么牧羊人芬内尔好半天才说出了那句欢迎的话？”，根据原文，听了灰衣人的歌，人们有些恐慌，所以牧羊人芬内尔好半天才第三次说出了那句欢迎的话（对应原文：Just then, there was another knock on the door. People seemed frightened, and Shepherd Fennel was slow to call out, for the third time, the welcoming words, 'Come in!'）。故选B。

2. 题目问的是“第三个陌生人看到灰衣人作何反应？”，根据原文，第三个陌生人刚一开口，目光就落到了灰衣人身上，于是便闭上了嘴（对应原文：'Can you tell me the way to—?' he began, but stopped speaking when his eyes fell on the stranger in grey, who, at that moment, started singing again.）。故选C。

3. 题目问的是“灰衣人的工具是什么？”，根据原文，灰衣人说自己的用具是那一小截绳子（对应原文：Honest shepherds all— Working with the little piece of rope. A sheep has lost its life, and the thief must pay the price.）。故选B。

4. 题目问的是“屋内的寂静被什么打破了？”，根据原文，寂静被“砰”的一声巨响打破了，那是一声枪响，从卡斯特桥方向传来（对应原文：The stillness was broken by a bang. It was the sound of a gun, and it came from Casterbridge.）。故选C。

5. 题目问的是“当刽子手需要警察时，谁上前来了？”，根据原文，国王手下的军官被朋友们推着慢慢走上前来（对应原文：One of the men came slowly forward, pushed by his friends. 'I'm one o' the king's officers, sir,' he said.）。故选A。
