单选题 Who wants to work in the evenings?
[A] Pat. [B] Rose. [C] Mrs Kite.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】细节题。短文中含有8节简短的广告,广告内容是求职、出租、寻物、出售房子车子等等。对于这种体裁的短文,所设题目一般都是细节题,考生只需将题句中的关键信息与原文对照,找到相应广告即可得出答案。本题题句中的关键信息是work in the evenings(晚上工作),同到原文,不难发现第一节广告即用粗体标明Student needs work evenings(学生求夜间工作).对应的发广告者是Pat,故答案就是[A]。
单选题 Mrs White wants to get back______.
[A] her money
[B] her photos and credit cards
[C] everything in her handbag
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】由题句中的关键人物Mrs white即可定位到“HELP!MY HANDBAG”这节广告,由其中If found.keep money but return ghotos and credit cards(如果有人拾到,钱可以不要,但望归还照片和信用卡)可知本题应选[B]。
单选题 The word "rent" in "Rent: June, July, August—$ 2000/m" means______.
[A] the money paid for buying a house
[B] the money spent in building a house
[C] the money paid for living in a house
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】词义推测题。由选项不难看出,此处需要考生判断rent到底是买房(buying)、建房(building)还是租房(living)的费用。首先,“建房”肯定不对,该节广告中并无相关内容,也与常识不符;其次,类似的结构有三个,时间不同、价格不同,只有可能是租房,因此rent即应是“租金”的意思。
单选题 Maria wants to______.
[A] practice her English
[B] teach her own language
[C] work to make some money
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】细节题。由题目中的人名Maria找到Student from Italy needs conversation practice in English一节,由其标题即可知,她是想练习英语。
单选题 Karen wants to sell her car because
[A] she doesn't like its color
[B] she thinks it is too old
[C] she is going abroad
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】细节题。由题目中的人名Karen即可知,对应的信息位于最后一节广告。阅读该节广告,发现其中倒数第二句指出:Owner going abroad.must sell(车主出国,只好出售),即出国就是卖车的原因。
