EP Portable Heater

We all know that the cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. Now millions of people are saving on their heating bills with the EP portable heater. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EP heats better and faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent.

The EP has no exposed heating parts that can cause a fire. The outside of the EP only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets.

The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room. With other heaters, you'll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen.

The advanced EP also heats the room evenly,_ wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It comfortably covers an area up to 350 square feet. Other heaters heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated to the center of the room. And they only heat an area a few feet around the heater. With the EP, the temperature will not vary in any part of the room.

The EP comes with a 3-year warranty(保修) and a 60-day, no questions asked, satisfaction guarantee. If you are not totally satisfied, return it at our expense and your money will be given back to you.

Now we have a special offer for 10 days, during which you can enjoy a half price discount and a free delivery. If you order after that, we reserve the right to either accept or reject order requests at the discounted price.

Answer 1

【要點綜述】 這是一篇廣告，主要宣傳的是一種新型的取暖器。這種取暖器能降低耗電量，為業(yè)主省錢；安全，不傷害兒童及寵物；不消耗房間氧氣；供暖均勻，遍及房間任何地方；三年保修，60天包換；十天內(nèi)半價，免費送貨。

60．B 　段落大意題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，主要講取暖器的安全問題。所以選B。

61．A 　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段內(nèi)容可知，這種取暖器不耗費氧氣。所以選A。選項B沒有提到；選項C、D的說法是錯誤的。

62．D 　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第四段evenly之后的解釋“wall to wall and floor to ceiling”可知，墻與墻之間，地板到屋頂是全部的空間，因此加熱是均勻的。continuously連續(xù)不斷地；separately單獨地，個別地；quickly迅速地；equally平均地，均等地。

63．A 　作者意圖題。根據(jù)文章前面介紹的內(nèi)容和最后的“Take action right now！”可知，本文是產(chǎn)品銷售的廣告，目的是吸引人們購買。
