小題1:What is ROM?
A．A piece of exercise equipment.
B．A club membership card.
C．A commercial health club.
D．An electric wheelchair.
小題2:How many people bought ROM after trying it out?
A．92%.B．88%.C．97%.D．90%.
小題3:One selling point of ROM is that _______.
A．it makes full body exercise possible in 4 minutes
B．it can kill back and shoulder pains in 10 minutes
C．it needs no repair in the first 20 years
D．it is sold on a 3-month trial basis
小題4:The advertisement is made believable by _______.
A．telling storiesB．using figures
C．making comparisonsD．a(chǎn)sking questions

小題1:A
小題2:C
小題3:A
小題3:B

小題1:這是一道細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)本文“Over 90% of ROM machines go to private homes.”可知ROM首先是個機器,而不是健身卡或者俱樂部,另外根據(jù)“The ROM balances blood sugar,and repairs bad backs and shoulders.”可知ROM可以平衡血糖,恢復損壞的背部和肩膀,可以推斷出ROM是個健身器械。
小題2:這是一道細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第四句“Over 97% of people who rent our ROM for 30 days end up buying it”,可知有97％租用了30天的人都買了這個機器。
小題3:這是一道細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)第三句“A 4-minute complete workout is no longer hard to believe for all the people who have bought our excellent Range of Motion machine(ROM) since 1990”可知ROM使得4分鐘就可以完成全身鍛煉變得可能,這是它的賣點之一。
小題4:這是一道分析歸納題。文章使用了大量數(shù)字介紹ROM的功能和優(yōu)勢。例如97％租用的人都購買了,90％的購買者是私人用戶,但是商業(yè)用戶使用了12年都不用修理等等,所以這個廣告使用數(shù)字使人信服。
