【点睛】广告类短文基本上以细节题的考查为主，此类文章主要考查考生提取信息和处理信息的能力，既注重特定细节的筛选、类比、综合，又注重推理判断题的考查，题目设置较容易。

答题时没有必要把每一句话弄清楚，只要重点理解和题目有关的信息就可以了。

做这类题时没有必要阅读全文，宜采用“倒序法”来处理。

即先看问题，后看文章内容。

这样在阅读中可以有重点地、有针对性地去读，冗余无效信息可以略读甚至不读。

在阅读时要特殊留意文中以黑体、大写、下画线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或至少是一部分内容的概括。

如第一小题，根据小标题 The Castle Shop 下第二段 At Arundel Castle we pride ourselves on supporting local suppliers and actively encourage environmentally friendly products 可知，城堡商店以支持本地供应商为荣，积极鼓励环保产品。

由此可知，在城堡商店可以购买到环保产品。

故选D。

The Indian movie Dangal(摔跤吧！爸爸) has become a huge hit in China. It has earned almost $170 million in China since its release there on May 5.
Much has been written about why Dangal has enjoyed such big success in China. Some people say one reason is the film’s star and producer, Aamir Khan. He is famous in India’s Bollywood film industry. Two of his earlier films were also big hits in China. But he is not the only reason. Media has pointed out how it shows similarities between parental systems in China and India.
Dangal is based on the true story of a man who enjoyed the sport of wrestling(摔跤). He competedas a wrestler, but never could realize his lifelong dream: winning a gold medal. As a father, he wanted his son to win the medal. But his wife only gave birth to daughters. So he finally decided to train them to be world-class wrestlers.
The movie is more serious than most Bollywood productions, which tell happy love stories and include colorful music and dance performances.
Edward Chan, a professor, says the strict way of parenting in the film is something
people in China can easily relate to. “I think the father’s role described by the movie in India is quite similar to the culture, especially the traditional culture in China.”
The Chinese government-supported Global Times newspaper pointed that movie critics(评论家) in China did not like Dangal. Most of them agreed with the fact that the father in the film was forcing his daughters to become wrestlers. But the film Dangal is really aimed to educate children to work for their dreams.
24. What can we learn from the text?
A. Most films from Bollywood are serious.
B. Daughters perform worse in the sport than sons.
C. Indian parents’ roles are similar to those in China in some way.
D. The films produced by Aamir Khan are not popular with Chinese.
25. Wha t’s the main reason for the father teaching his daughters to wrestle?
A. He loved them very much.
B. He wanted to punish them.
C. Few women took this sport.
D. He wanted them to realize his goal.
26. What do most Chinese movie critics agree?
A. The truth of the whole story is doubtful.
B. The father’s behavior in the film Dangal is cruel.
C. Indian films often have a bad influence on Chinese parents.
D. The film Dangal is against the Indian traditional culture.
27. What does the author think of Dangal?
A. I t’s unknown.
B. It’s educational.
C. It’s unsuccessful.
D. It’s relaxing.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. B
【解析】

C
If you grow up in America, you must know this little foodie(美食家) poem, “You scream! I scream! We all scream for ice cream!” For most Americans, the phrase “ice cream” brings out memories of summer. Ice cream is the oldest fashioned treat, and it has an ancient history.
The emperors of the Tang Dynasty are believed to have been the first to eat “a frozen milk-like dessert”, which was m ade with milk that was heated with flour. Later, camphor(樟脑) was added to improve the taste.
In Medieval Times, Arabs enjoyed an icy drink called sherbet(冰冻果子露). This cold drink often went with fruits. Over time, the drink became popular with the European upper class. Italians are said to have learned this drink-making skill, with the French following soon after.
The 17th century saw ice drinks made into frozen desserts. With sugar added, sorbet(雪酪) was created. Antonio Latini is the first person to create a milk-based sorbet, which is considered as the first “official” ice cream.
It is impossible to say how exactly ice cream reached America, but it probably arrived with European settlers in the early 1700’s. In 1790, the first ice cream store opened in New York. During the summer of the same year, our first president, George Washington, is said to have spent $200 to satisfy his thirst for the lovely treat. The Lincolns had a taste for ice cream. Abraham Lincoln’s wife Mary Todd often hosted “strawberry parties” for friends. Fresh strawberries were served with cake and ice cream.
Ice cream has become one of the most popular desserts in America. Apple pie might be the most traditionally American dessert, but what is served as its most popular
close friend? Vanilla (香草) ice cream, of course! This creamy iced treat has strongly planted itself in the hearts of foodies across America.
28. Why does the writer mention the poem at the beginning of the passage?
A. To support his view.
B. To advertise ice cream.
C. To introduce the topic.
D. To explain why ice cream is popular.
29. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Camphor brought a better taste to the milk-like dessert.
B. In America, apple pies are usually served with strawberry ice cream.
C. Sugar was added to frozen desserts in the 17th century.
D. Sherbet was often mixed with fruits
30. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
A. The popularity of Ice Cream
B. Different Types of Ice Cream
C. Apple Pie’s Close Friend
D. The History of Ice Cream
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

本文讲述的是冰淇淋的起源和历史演变。

【28题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第一段中For most Americans, the phrase “ice cream” brings out memories of summer. Ice cream is the oldest fashioned treat, and it has an ancient history.（对大多数美国人来说，“冰淇淋”这个词勾起了他们对夏天的回忆。

冰淇淋是最古老的食物，它有着悠久的历史。

）结合文章内容讲述的是冰淇淋的起源，可知开头提到的诗就是为了引出主题。

故选C。

【29题详解】
细节理解题。

根据"Ice cream has become one of the most popular desserts in America. Apple pie might be the most traditionally American dessert, but what is served as its most popular close friend? Vanilla ice cream, of course!（冰淇淋已经成为美国最受欢迎的甜点之一。

苹果派可能是最传统的美国甜点，但它最受欢迎的亲密朋友是什么呢?当然是香草冰淇淋了!）"可知，在美国苹果派通常配上香草冰淇淋。

故B选项错误，故选B。

【30题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据文章内容"It is impossible to say how exactly ice cream reached America， but it probably arrived with European settlers in the early 1700's．"可知，本文讲述的是冰淇淋的历史。

故选D。
