解析试题分析:这篇阅读材料涉及四所学校的招生广告,都是关于英语学习的。浏览后面的题目,根据其具体要求就能选择出适合于自己的学校。
【小题1】细节理解题。既然“每天从上午9:00工作至下午4:30,连周末都工作,那么只能选择晚上有课程的学校了。那么在这四所学校中只有Global English Center和The International House设有晚间课程。不难判断B为正确答案。
【小题2】细节理解题。21世纪英语培训中心与众不同之处是需要进行Entrance exams (入学考试),这一点在其他三所学校的广告中均未谈及;而其它如“教学质量好”、“离市中心近”等,在另外三所学校的广告中也可以见到。因此D为正确答案。
【小题3】计算题。广告中说“每周12小时60元”,那么一个月四周要近千元。故D为正确答案。
考点:考查广告布告类短文

Grand Opening
Bentwood Truck Museum
Saturday, November 8, at 10:00 A. M.
After eighteen months of hard work by more than 100 volunteers, the Bentwood Truck Museum is ready to open. The old factory had been scheduled to be destroyed. When Roger Haygood heard about the plan to tear down the building, he bought it so that he could store his collection of old trucks there. Then he had the idea of turning the building into a truck museum.
During the past year and a half, the old building has been transformed into a treasure chest of memories. Instead of a dark and dull house, the building has become a cheery, bright home for all kinds of trucks from the past. The museum now houses 68 trucks, and we hope to have even more soon. There is a 1959 school bus, a 1942 bakery truck, and a 1937 fire engine. Our oldest vehicle is a 1919 milk truck. Our newest vehicle is a 1966 tow truck.
You can take a ride on a fire truck, a mail truck, or an ice-cream truck. Rides are $ 2.00, but you can get a ticket for a free ride at any grocery store in Bentwood.
Help us celebrate our grand opening by bringing your family and friends! There is something to interest everyone who attends. The Bentwood Truck Museum is a special piece of our history.
To get to Bentwood Truck Museum, take Route 29 (Kingston Highway) to Palmer Street. Go south on Palmer Street for one block and take a left onto Norman Drive. You will see the museum building and the amusement park on your left. Parking is available across the street, on your right.
【小题1】Where is Bentwood Truck Museum?
