全國英語等級考試三級閱讀理解基礎(chǔ)練習(xí)題
Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of her Senate campaign this morning, a 30-second commercial that will begin airing statewide on Thursday. The spot, titled "First," uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs. Clinton's career, while the voiceover says she is "more than a fist lady."
There is no mention of Mrs. Clinton's rival for New York's Senate seat, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.
Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said the ad was "positive" and "biographical," instead of focusing on the first lady's opponent.
Mrs. Clinton has previously aired radio ads, but has generally stayed with a strategy of making extensive campaign appearances instead of using television spots, while Giuliani has already run statewide TV ads.
Text of Hillary Commercial:
First she became a lawyer, named one of the top hundred in America.
Her first cause was children, fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children's Defense Fund.
Her first priority was public schools, helping to establish teacher testing.
More than a first lady. For 30 years, she's fought for children and families.
As New York's senator, she'll fight for better schools and heath care for children.
Hillary, Put her to work for all of us.
11. What does the word "air" in the first sentence mean?
A. dry
B. express
C. breathe
D. broadcast
參考答案：D
考點：該題是一個詞匯題
解析：本題提問的是第一段中的"air"是什么意思。由這句話我們可以得知，希拉里今天早晨發(fā)表了她競選紐約州議員的電視宣傳;為時30分鐘的電視宣傳將于星期二開始進(jìn)行全國播放。由該句的意思我們可以猜出“air”的意思為“播放”。所以，答案為D.而其他三個詞A(曬干)，B(表達(dá))和C(呼吸)均與原義不符，故不能入選。
12. What does "more than first lady" in the first paragraph suggest?
A. Hillary is not a first lady.
B. Hillary does much more than what a first lady is expected to do.
C. There are more women in America who does better than Hillary does.
D. Hillary is doing better than her husband.
參考答案：B
考點：這是一個理解判斷題。
解析：本題提問的是第一段里"more than first lady"是什么意思。在世界各地，第一夫人作為國家元首的妻子，是一國之母，她的形象一般是一個幫助總統(tǒng)處理好家務(wù)，并且進(jìn)行一些婦女活動和慈善事業(yè)，借此來提高元首的形象。但是，希拉里作為第一夫人，她所做的超出了第一夫人的職責(zé)。她不但在社會活動中經(jīng)常露臉，而且直接參與政事，開始競選起議員來了。所以，選項B應(yīng)該是該題的答案。
13.Which of the following statement is true regarding the Senator campaign according the passage?
A. Hillary has appeared on TV shot for mumerous times.
B. Hillary rarely makes her public appearance.
C. Giuliani has made TV advertisement for himself.
D. Hillary has a bigger chance to win the campaign.
參考答案：C
考點：這是一個對原文事實的理解題。
解析：本題提問的是對此次參議院競選，以下哪一個說法是正確的。文章的第四段告訴我們，希拉里以前曾經(jīng)在廣播上作過宣傳，但是她一直采取的戰(zhàn)略是頻頻在公眾場合出現(xiàn)，而不是使用電視宣傳;與她不同的.是，Giuliani已作過全國電視宣傳。由該段可知，選項C為正確答案。從文章的第一句話我們可以得知，這是希拉里第一次在電視上為自己作宣傳，所以，選項A和B不符合原文;此次議員競選，花落誰手尚未分曉，所以，選項D也不能入選。
14. Hillary's campaign focuses on all the flooowing except_____.
A. children's health care
B. school education for children
C. combating child abuse
D. family planning policy
參考答案：D
考點：這是一個對原文細(xì)節(jié)的分析判斷題。
解析：本題提問的是以下哪一下不是希拉里的競選重點。希拉里的競選廣告在文章的最后幾段里;它的重點是學(xué)校教育;作者評論道，在過去的30年里，希拉里一直都在為兒童和家庭的幸福斗爭。將來當(dāng)了紐約的參議員，她會為孩子們的良好教育和健康保險而努力;由此我們得知，選項A(兒童健康保險)B(兒童的學(xué)校教育)和C(打擊虐待兒童現(xiàn)象)都是她的競選重點，只有選項D(計劃生育政策)與原文不合，所以，D為本題答案。
15.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?
A. First Lady's Senator Campaign
B. Hillary's TV Advertisement
C. A Rivalry for New York's Senate Seat
D. The Focuses of Hillary Campaign
參考答案：A
考點：該題是一個主旨題，考的是文章的題目應(yīng)該是哪一個。
解析：本文從第一夫人希拉里-克林頓為其入選紐約參議員拉開序幕講起，對目前的競選狀況作了一個大概介紹，并且對希拉里的競選內(nèi)容作了一個介紹，同時，作者表達(dá)了他自己的觀點;整篇文章以介紹她的競選情況為主，所以，選項A(第一夫人競選參議員)用以概括全文最為全面，因此，為正確答案。
