(答案→)D
解析：
【小题1】这是一道主旨大意题。文章第一段就是文章的主题句。作者说摇曳的棕榈树、湛蓝的海水、白色的沙滩确实让人心旷神怡，但并非所有的海滩都是这样的，世界上有各种各样的与众不同的沙滩。后面的段落介绍了世界各地独特的沙滩。故选D项。
【小题2】这是一道细节理解题。从文章第一段的“Swaying palm trees，turquoiseblue water and sugarwhite sand make beach lovers sigh with delight.”可知，大多数人认为棕榈树、湛蓝的海水、白色的沙滩就是美丽的海滩的样子。
【小题3】这是一道细节理解题。从第四段的“The sand on Red Beach gets its reddish color from the red volcanic rocks...”可知，红色的火山石使得这里的沙滩成为红色。
【小题4】这是一道细节理解题。从第二段的“Those who want beauty and something unique can go to the Seychells' La Digue Island. ...The pinkishgrey rocks look like sculptures that have been forgotten on the beach.”可知B项正确。
【小题5】这是一道推理判断题。从全文特别是文章最后一段可知，世界上有很多独特的海滩，不必只去有棕榈树、湛蓝的海水、白色的沙子的地方，你有更多的选择。
