1、2014高考英语二轮阅读微技能训练9广告类I. 广告类文章的特点高考广告类短文贴近学生生活,如学习、旅游、保健、购物、招生、招聘、餐饮、网络交流等。这类短文的特点有以下几点: 1篇幅短小,形式灵活,信息量大。无论整篇广告还是数则小广告,都很短小精悍,但其中的信息可能较多甚至较为纷繁。 2用词和句法简练。广告用词简单,句法以简单句为主,目的是为了让读者一目了然,很快捕捉到信息。 3专有名词和缩略词多。广告涉及的商品和活动以及人物等经常以专有名词出现,而时间、地点等经常以缩略词出现。 4生词多而且没有中文注释。广告领域众多、涉及面广,因此会有生词,但往往不影响阅读。Example 1 WELCOM

12、ing(查读)的阅读技能,即读得快、理解得准。建议如下: 1平时多注意积累分类词汇。如招聘广告中的apply(申请)以及其派生词applicant(申请者),application(申请)等,再如admission(门票),max(maximum)(最高)和min(minimum)(最低)等可用来表示薪水,工作年限等。 2注意英语中常用的缩略形式。如vs(对),eg(例如),am(上午),pm(下午),hL(小时),R(英尺),m1(英里),esp(尤其),m(男),f(女),Rd(路),Co(公司)等。 3抓关键词来掌握主要内容,对于无关紧要的生词可以掠过,尤其是那些生僻的专业词汇根本不用害
13、怕。 4对于一组同类广告,阅读时要注意进行细节对比。 5先看题目,然后从文中找答案。因为试题考查的往往只是细节信息,所以没必要将广告全部看完。Example 2 BORDERCROSSINGSWhile there are no restrictions on zhe amount of money that you can bring across the border.you must report to both the US and Canadian border services amounts equal to or greater than $10.000.PERSONAL EX

57、acancies,Kiss 100联系。2.D细节理解题。根据第二则广告可知,the Enterprise Shopping Centre招聘的是圣诞老人,工作的时间是从 11月24日开始,持续到12月24日,在这大约一个月的时间内,他都要在周六或者除了周日以外的其他时间工作。3.C细节理解题。根据第三则广告最后“This position is equally suitable for a school leaver”可知答案为C项。4.C细节理解题。根据最后一则广告第二句中的“You should be good at the computer”可知答案为C项。b答案与解析1A细节理解题。
58、根据Activities这部分内容的第二段第一句可知,为公众娱乐大兴土木是对国家公园的威胁,是该机构要阻止的行为。2.C细节理解题。根据Benefits这部分内容的第五条可知,该机构成员享有的权益之一就是参加工作组。3.B推理判断题。文章介绍了Friends这一机构的亮点、目标、活动以及该机构成员享有的权益等,显然,作者的目的是想邀请更多的有志之士加入进来,成为其中的一员。C答案与解析1.D主旨大意题。由第一段第一句可知,Homestay为学习英语的学生提供在课堂外说英语的机会和成为英国家庭成员的体验。再结合文章的内容可推知这篇文章不是为愿意接受英国学生的主人写的,也不是为那些希望建设英国文化
59、的外国人以及计划参观伦敦家庭的参观者写的。大概是为那些申请在英国人家中居住的英语学习者写的。2.A细节理解题。由第二段第二句可知A项的叙述符合题意。主人能够提供的东西主要在第二段进行论述,该段并没有告诉读者主人将为入住者提供医疗护理、免费交通和身体训练。3.B推理判断题。由第三段倒数第二句可知Zone 3和Zone 4不像Zone 2那么拥挤,由此排除A项;第二句只说明人们不喜欢居住在市中心,并没有说人们不去市中心,由此排除C项;本段只是提到市中心拥挤,并没有说到居住在市中心的家庭不为学生提供食宿,由此排除D项。4.C细节理解题。由第四段中的Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice,cereal,bread and tea or coffee可知,A项、B项和D项的叙述是错误,只有C项中的Bread and fruit juice是里面的内容。故选C项。5.D细节理解题。由最后一段第二句中的This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle可知Self?Catering Accommodation 能够为住宿者提供更多的自由,这与D项的叙述一致。A项、B项和C项的D-答案:6871 ABDC
