点评 做广告类阅读的五大技巧
1.先题后文法:"先题后文"指的就是先读试题,了解试题的考查点,再根据试题的要求快速阅读短文.
2.题干定向法:如果题干的问题与原文中的相应句段基本相同,则可直接对号入座;如果题干的问题与原文中的相应句段有较大出入,则要进行一定的处理,这个"处理"是多方面的,它可能包括对原文进行同义变换、对概念进行解析、对事实进行归纳、将具体问题抽象化或将抽象问题具体化、将文中提到的原则或规则进行实际运用等等.
3.错误排除法:一般说来,对于那些与文意明显不符或与文章内容不相关的选项比较容易排除,但有些选项与文章内容相符,却与题干问题不吻合,即属答非所问的情形,也应作为错误项予以排除,尤其是那些从文章中摘录的句子,要特别小心,它们很有可能是干扰项.除了验证其是否能回答所提问题外,还要看它是否回答了问题的主要方面,也就是说看它是不是最佳答案,如果它只能回答所提问题的一个侧面或还有比它更合适的选项,都要毫不犹豫地将其排除.
4.信息补全法:前面讲到,广告类阅读材料的一大特点就是缩略词和省略句多.考生在做题时,要注意根据文章的上下文语境将省略句补充完整,以便于正确地理解和答题.

15.Modern inventions have speeded up people's lives amazingly.Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in a little more than an hour.Aircrafts cross the world a day,while computers operate at a lightning speed.Indeed,this love of speed seems never-ending.Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts (吹嘘)of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All this saves time,but at a price.When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane,our bodies tell us so.We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag(时差); our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone.Again,spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers.Mobile phones also have their dangers according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains,a consequence we do not like to think about.
However,what do we do with the time we have saved?Certainly not relax,or so it seems.We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing,or even just one thing at a time.Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio,letting imagination take us into another world.
There was a time when some people's lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle.No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace,and in a familiar pattern.There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this.Yet before we do so,we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced:they farmed with bare hands,often lived close to hunger,and had to fashion tools from wood and stone.Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.

8.The new products become more and more time-saving becauseA.
A.our love of speed seems never-ending        
B.time is limited
C.the prices are increasingly high                 
D.the manufacturers boast a lot
9.What does"the days"in Paragraph 3refer to?B
A.Imaginary life                            
B.Simple life in the past
C.Times of inventions                          
D.Time for constant activity
10.What is the author's attitude towards the modern technology?B
A.Critical            
B.Objective              
C.Optimistic           
D.Negative
11.What does the passage mainly discuss?D
A.The present and past times               
B.Machinery and human beings
C.Imaginations and inventions            
D.Modern technology and its influence.
