【名师点拨】

关于广告布告类阅读

1、在平时学习中，关注生活，阅读新闻报道和广告类文章、把阅读时事文章作为学习英语的重要途径。

2、了解新的词汇和表达方式。如：tsunami海啸，MP3players(MP3)播放器，well_offsociety小康社会等。

3、抓住文章主题，准确捕捉细节和内涵，进行合理的推理。 比如第61小题，推理判断题。纵观全文,尤其是文章的第一段可以看出,这是一则广告,其目的就是向社会公开招聘English-language senior business editors,senior copy editors,copy editors and graphic designers 4个岗位上的员工。由此可以判断答案为D。

4、要注意文中以黑体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是材料的核心或至少是一部分内容的概括。比如第63小题，细节理解题。根据Copy Editor 的第二条-----Be able to work on shifts for different pages, and usually have the last word before the page is sent to print。能够转变为不同的页面上，并且页面在发送给打印前通常有最后一句话。也就是说高级文字编辑可以决定发送打印的页面。故选D。
