小題2:D 選項A與“BOOK LAUNCH FREE”中的內(nèi)容不符;Rory Carnegie和Nikki出現(xiàn)在第一則廣告,對照原文可知選項B與廣告內(nèi)容有出入,因為Nikki是一位作家,而不是攝影師。選項C與“WORKSHOP FOR PRIMARY TEACHERS”中的“Led by Judie Waldmann, artist and former primary school teacher.”內(nèi)容不符;選項D與“ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES”中的“MODERN ART TROLLEY FREE”中的“Children must be led by an adult.”一致,故D正確。
小題3:B 選項A意為“免費旅行”,與廣告內(nèi)容不符;選項C意為“周末活動”,廣告的內(nèi)容不單純是周末活動;選項D意為“教師的活動”,廣告的內(nèi)容不僅僅是教師的活動;故可用排除法,所以選項B正確。
小題4:A 選項A與廣告“BOOK LAUNCH FREE”中的內(nèi)容“Special price of£18 on copies purchased in the evening.”一致,故選項A為最佳答案。其余選項均與相應的內(nèi)容有出入。
