Question

Well，I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down,and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store，I almost changed my mind. The phones all have cameras, computers and a "global-positioning" something or other that's supposed to spot me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids！The people at the store didn, t provide much help. They couldn' t understand why some?one wouldn't want a phone with the size of a postage stamp. And the rate plans！They were con?fusing ,and expensive, and the contract(合同)lasted for two years！I'd almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone. Now，I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch with a phone I can actually use.

Affordable plans that I can understand，and no contract to sign (签订)！Unlike other cell phones， Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes T m never going to use? And if I do talk more than I plan,I won't find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all,there is no contract to sign―so I'm not locked in for years at a time. The US-based customer service is second to none,and the phone gets service anywhere in the country.

Answer 1

1. B推理判断题。根据表格中的第二列可知每个月的费用是$19.99,每个月是4周，所以19.99+4 =4.99,所以答案为B项。

2. B细节理解题。根据第二段首句"Affoixiableplans that I can understand, and no contract to sign"可知作者买下Jitterbug手机的原因。

3. D主旨大意题。根据文章最后一部分对于Jid— 手机的介绍和订购方式以及联系方法都可推知本文主要是通过作者自己买手机的经历来吸引更多的顾客购买Jitterbug手机，因此D项正确。
