Question

7．Among various programs，TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television．And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style．But no two shows are more opposite in content，while at the same time standing out above the rest，than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows．
       Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of"rubbish talk"．The topics on his show are as surprising as can be．For example，the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love，sex，cheating，and hate，to a different level．Clearly，the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society，yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives．
       Like Jerry Springer，Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top．But Oprah goes in the opposite direction．The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life．Contents are from teaching your children lessons，managing your work week，to getting to know your neighbors．
       Compared to Oprah，the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society．Jerry ends every show with a"final word"．He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show．Hopefully，this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable．
       Clean as it is，the Oprah show is not for everyone．The show's main audience are middle-class Americans．Most of the people have the time，money and ability to deal with life's tough problems．Jerry Springer，on the other hand，has more of a connection with the young adults of society．These are 18-to 21year-olds whose main troubles in life include love，relationship，sex，money and drug．They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation．
41．Compared with other TV talk shows，both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows areB．
A．more interesting                                     
B．unusually poplar
C．more detailed

Answer 1

分析 文章介紹了兩種不同風(fēng)格的電視談話類節(jié)目．一個(gè)針對美國中產(chǎn)階級，他們大多有金錢，有能力解決生活中的問題．一個(gè)針對社會(huì)陰暗面中存在的問題，更適合社會(huì)上的年輕人．

解答 BACD
41．B細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第一段But no two shows are more opposite in content，while at the same time standing out above the rest，than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows．可知但沒有兩個(gè)節(jié)目是相反的內(nèi)容，然而在同一時(shí)間會(huì)比起其他節(jié)目更突出．由此可知，相比于其他電視談話節(jié)目，Jerry Springer 和Oprah Winfrey的節(jié)目是非常受歡迎的．故選B．
42．A細(xì)節(jié)判斷題．根據(jù)第二段yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives．可知然而，人們愿意去煩惱別人生活中的麻煩．由此可知，雖然Jerry Springer談?wù)摰纳鐣?huì)問題看起來不愉快，但觀看節(jié)目的人仍然對它們感興趣．故選A．
43．C推理判斷題．根據(jù)第三段The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life．可知Oprah Winfrey的節(jié)目的觀眾主要是美國的中產(chǎn)階級，內(nèi)容也主要是中產(chǎn)階級所關(guān)注的．故選C．
44．D細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一段The show's main audience are middle-class Americans．和Jerry Springer，on the other hand，has more of a connection with the young adults of society．可知該節(jié)目的主要觀眾是美國的中產(chǎn)階級，而Jerry Springer的節(jié)目跟社會(huì)上的年輕人有關(guān)．由此可知，這兩個(gè)談話節(jié)目吸引了不同的人．故選D．

點(diǎn)評 閱讀這類文章時(shí)，也應(yīng)該在整體把握文章結(jié)構(gòu)的前提下，主要注意細(xì)節(jié)信息．細(xì)節(jié)題題干都是相應(yīng)原文的變形（如同義改寫、詞性轉(zhuǎn)換等），因此要找到答案一定要找到題干在原文中的出處，再把原文和選項(xiàng)相比較．做題時(shí)，根據(jù)所提問題用尋讀、跳讀的方法可達(dá)到事半功倍的效果．
