资料正文内容开始>>专题7 阅读理解——广告应用文方法与技巧广告类阅读题内容主要涉及的是与人们生活息息相关的信息,如产品宣传、服务介绍、招生招聘等。
广告应用文的特点:标题醒目,重点突出,条理清楚。
广告类阅读材料的用词有以下“三多”特点:一是人名、地名、专有名词多;二是生词多;三是缩略词、省略句多。
命题形式:广告类阅读是近几年高考英语阅读理解最常考的题材,在阅读理解的选材中占有很大的比重命题者的目的是要考查考生提取信息和处理信息的能力,所以命题的题型多是以获取信息为主的细节理解题。
解题技巧:解答此类试题,可以从以下几个方面着手考虑:一般来说,广告信息类阅读文章的内容丰富,如产品广告、招聘广告、风景名胜介绍、房房屋出租、招生广告、演出广告、节目介绍等。
广告类阅读理解的突出特点是题干长、信息量丰富,所以该文体通常以细节理解题为主要题型;命题所涉及的信息往往具有位置分散、覆盖面广等特点。
在解决广告类阅读文章的细节解题时,考生要能迅速捕捉和解题相关的有效信息,通过分析、比较、归纳和推理等手段选出正确答案,排除不符合题意和文意的选项。
根据广告类阅读文章信息量大的特点,考生可以先浏览文章后面的问题,然后带着问题看文章,这样,在阅读过程中可以大胆忽略和解题无关的信息,快速抓住有效信息,以达到正确解题的目的。
广告应用文阅读是高考阅读理解中难度最低的一种题型,这是必须得满分的试题。
对待这种题一定要稳扎稳打,力争得满分。

Many of the adventures on the list require scuba diving, but at some locations, even non-divers with a desire to get up close and personal with the top of the food chain can jump in and face their fears.BahamasI don't want to scare the non-shark lovers away from the beauty of the Bahamas, but there are sharks out there. From least scary to the most, here's where to get your Bahamian shark fix.Compass Cay Marina is home to a large number of well-fed, friendly nurse sharks. In case you don't know it, a nurse shark is more like a giant catfish than a great white. You can walk right into the shallow water near the fish-cleaning station and pet these gentle guys.Stuart Cove's in Nassau has been doing shark dives safely for decades. Caribbean reef sharks feed on fish-on-a-stick as divers kneel in the sand in awe. Reef sharks are some of the least aggressive species of shark.As your fear subsides and you crave more sharks and more excitement, check out the folks at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures in Fort Lauderdale. They operate live-aboard dive boats with regularly scheduled shark trips in the Bahamas. Expect to see tigers and hammerheads, as well as the Caribbean reef sharks.HawaiiThere are several shark species in the Pacific waters surrounding the Hawaiian Islands. Sightings of tigers, hammerheads, blues, and even great whites are not all that uncommon.And While divers can expect to see these guys almost anywhere while diving in Hawaii, the Oahu's North Shore is the place to be for cage diving. Hawaii Shark Encounters takes shark education seriously and strives to educate customers about the need for shark conservation while providing a thrilling swim with sharks inside the safety of a cage. No diving skills are required-just bring your courage.FijiScuba diving in Fiji is a definite bucket-list adventure for many divers-and the fish many hope to see most is shark. Beqa Adventure Divers can make that happen for you. Sharks are protected in the Shark Reef Marine Reserve, so no worries about questionable practices. This is an uncaged dive, but per the company's website, it is a carefully managed feed, where participants observe, but do not interact(互动)with the sharks.Guadalupe IslandHome to a large population of great whites, the waters off the Mexico's Baja coast, attract divers willing to brave cold Pacific waters for some time in a cage watching the top fish of the oceanNautilus Live Aboards operates six-day adventures from July to November using submersible(能在水下操作的)cages that descend to about 9 meters for a better opportunity to observe the sharks. You meet the expedition in San Diego, motor to Ensenada, cruise to Guadalupe, then spend three full days in the cages watching the predators.

It’s not so glorious, apparently. At the very least, you need to be good-natured. Joseph Connolly, a guidance counselor at New Oxford High School in the United States, wanted to know the things that annoy admissions officers the most. He sent out a request to members of the National Association for College Admissions Counselors and received hundreds of responses. Apparently, college admissions officers were waiting for an opportunity to unload their frustrations.

热点练01 阅读理解之应用文现在是信息爆炸时代,报纸、电视、互连网等媒体上的广告铺天盖地,我们在日常生活中随处可以见到形形色色的广告。
我们面临升学、就业、旅游、购房等问题时都会想到广告,希望能从各种广告中获取有用信息,实现我们的愿望,解决实际的生活、工作等问题。
因此,高考命题人十分注重考查考生对广告等应用文体的阅读能力,这也是一种运用所学语言知识解决实际问题的能力。
1. 先看问题,再读文章做阅读理解是先看问题,还是先看文章,这是很多同学经常问的问题。
我觉得这两种方法各有利弊,应视具体情况而定。
就阅读广告而言,还是先看问题比较好,因为广告类的试题绝大部分是寻找信息的题目,大可不必从头读到尾,带着问题有针对性地去跳读、略读,这样就可以节约不少时间。
2. 抓住广告的标题如果广告有标题,大标题下又有小标题,那么,快速寻找原文信息时,这些标题就成了很重要的线索,可以帮助我们快速准确地找到答案。
有些题目考查的就是对广告标题的理解。
3. 逐项比较,得出最佳做阅读理解题,切不可凭主观印象,想当然地确定答案。
任何一道题目,均可以在原文中找到相关线索,这就如同破译密码一样。
做题人的思维过程和编题人的思维过程恰好相反,编题人先找好线索,然后设计问题和选项,解题人根据问题,再去文中找相关线索。
因此,我们做题时要逐项比较,排除错误选项,得出最佳答案。
应用文的类型主要有:广告,规则、通知、咨询问答、注意事项等,指南,书评、问卷调查、告示、参观须知、申请书、个人简介等。

It’s expected to be the model for offshore wind farms around the UK. A journalist is interviewing her.Journalist: You’ve had great career development. How did that happen?Ana: My excellent female engineer manager taught me to be disciplined(训练有素的) and organised at work. I’m proud of being one of the few female electrical engineers on the project but all the women are from Spain. Scottish Power found it difficult to acquire female electrical engineers from the UK. In Spain, the industry is more equal because the numbers of boys and girls who study engineering are the same.Journalist: What do the pupils ask when you visit them?Ana: The schoolchildren ask me about my salary, because most of them want to be lawyers or doctors or do economics for banking. Girls in the UK don’t regard engineering as an opportunity. I tell them that I enjoy what I’m doing and that we provide and generate electricity(发电) for everybody.Journalist: What’s the worst thing that has gone wrong?Ana: For a tight programme, the worst thing is when we lose time. That can be the most stressful. My responsibility is about making sure it’ll be on time and is ready.Journalist: How do you feel at weekends?Ana: Tired! This project is a full marathon. You cannot work every day at 100pc but you need to try to be at 80pc. The weekend is all about rest and filling myself with new energy.Journalist: What is the most satisfying thing about your work?Ana: To know that you are creating a project that can generate electricity just by using wind. You are working on something great and being useful, and sharing knowledge with colleagues.21. What can we learn about the East Anglia ONE project?A. It contains more than 102 turbines.B. It’s the largest wind farm in Europe.C. It provides electricity for 500,000 people.D. It’s likely to set an example to British offshore wind farms.22.

online lives.The device looked like a hightech cruet set (调味瓶), and allowed a friend with an iPhone app to send you scent messages alongside photos.Send a picture of your dinner, tag it with four different tones, and whoever is on the receiving end can sniff it from the vaselike tubes of the oPhone.The oPhone didn’t take off, and the company has now shifted focus to a “scent speaker”called the Cyrano, which similarly uses a range of scent capsules to emit“play lists”of smells.Compared to our real world interaction s, our online lives are lacking in scent.Our digital culture, so soak ed in visual and aural stimuli,is odorless (没有气味的).So why didn’t his marriage of smell and picture messaging excite more interest?From a technical point of view, smell is simply harder to mass communicate than sounds and pictures.“There are two main technological obstacle s to making smell transmissible by digital means,”explains biophysicist and author of Perfumes: The AZ guide, Dr Luca Turin.“First, there are no odor‘primaries’like RGB or CMYK.Second, it has proved impossible to stimulate the olfactory epithelium (上皮组织) directly by any means tried so far.This means that it is currently impossible to induce a sensation of smell without there being an actual chemical in the inhaled air (吸入的空气).”“The more we’re plugged into the virtual world, the more we deeply appreciate the contrastmoments in our human, experience,”says designer and olfactory artist Mindy Yang.“Intuitively, we realize that we are starved of certain sensations.With the rise of digital culture, society has become more interested in the missing sense —what we smell.”This interest in scent isn’t only happening within the worlds of perfume and fashion.Over the past few years a number of cultural projects have set out to focus on the power of sensory experiences, from the use of a smell map, to the Tate Sensorium, which in 2015 let users experience visual art alongside smells, tastes and sounds.Whether it’s devices like the oPhone that try to introduce scent into digital messaging, organizations are growingly aware of our culture’s desire for sensory experiences.In a time of virtual reality and scentless social networks, it’s perhaps no wonder that we as a culture have such a desire for something that instinctively feels real and authentic—even if it was made in a lab.5.What can we learn about the

Here are two of our favorites:Green MapsGreen Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly plaees and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons (图标), making it easy to read any map, whatever thenationalities of those who produce it.

It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place, ranning from community gardens to good places of birdwatching.Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the Green Maps website.Maps MashupsMany people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Maps Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to exsiting maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World.

Not long ago, the Information Highway was a new road, with not many users. Now, everyone seems to want to take a drive, with over 30 million families connected worldwide.

The Rant anal Opting .He views mankind as grand enterprise that .on the whole .has done little but progress for 100.000 years. He backed his finding with hard gathered though years of research.Here’s how he explains his views.1)Shopping fuels inventionIt is reported that there are more than ten billion different producers for sale in London alone. Even allowing for the many people who still live in poverty .our own generation has access to more nutritious food .more convenient transport .bigger houses, better ears .and of course, more pounds and dollars than any who lived before us .This will continue as long as we there things to make other things, This more we specialize and exchange, the better off we’ll be.2) Brilliant advancesOne reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ener before is that the four most basie human needs -food, clothing, fuel and shelter- have grown a lot cheaper.

Today it’s half second.3) Let’s not kill ourselves for climate changeMitigating(减轻) climate change could prove just as damaging to human welface as climate change itself. A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village, where the use of fassil-fuel(化石燃料) electrieity is forhidden by well meaming members of green polucal movements trying to save the world, is just as great a tragedy as a child that mes in a flood caused by climate change.
