Question

【題目】 Teenagers have their own TV channels， websites and magazines. So what about books？

Last year one publisher， Martins， started publishing a series called Waves. We spoke to the director Julia Smith. She explained， "Teenage fiction has been published since the 1970s but publishers have never been very successful in getting teenagers to buy and read books. Now they're realizing that teenagers are just older children， but are not adults either. They are often not interested in adult fiction. For this series we are looking for new writers who write especially for teenagers.

Athene Gorr's novel was published in the series last year and is selling well. Its title is The Purple Ring. She says， "The important thing is to encourage teenagers to pick up your book. I'm a new writer. Although I've got an unusual name which people might remember， nobody knows it yet! But my book has a fantastic cover which makes people want to look inside. Then they realize what an excellent story it is!"

And what do teenagers themselves think about the series？ We talked to Sophie Clarke， aged 15. She said？ "I've read a few books in the Waves series. They say they are for 14-19 year olds and I agree with that. We're not interested in the same things as people in their twenties and thirties. I like them and I think they look really good too. The only thing is that because bookshops put them in the children section， lots of teenagers won't find them so they may not do very well. And it's a shame there's no such series as I think lots of teenagers， especially boys， might buy."

【4】C

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。本文介紹現(xiàn)在青少年圖書很少，the Waves系列專注于青少年書籍，受到青少年喜愛。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段For this series we are looking for new writers who write especially for teenagers.“對于這個系列，我們正在尋找新的作家誰寫特別為青少年。”可知，有必要出版一些適合青少年看的書。故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的my book has a fantastic cover which makes people want to look inside. “我的書有一個很好的封面，讓人想往里面看。”可知， The Purple Ring 的封面吸引人們的眼球。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的The only thing is that because bookshops put them in the children section，lots of teenagers won't find them so they may not do very well.“唯一的問題是，因為書店把它們放在兒童區(qū)，很多青少年找不到它們，所以他們可能做得不好。”可知，the Waves被錯誤地放到兒童書籍中。故選D。

【4】寫作意圖題。根據(jù)全文和第一段的Teenagers have their own TV channels， websites and magazines. So what about books？可知，這篇文章主要是鼓勵更多作家為青少年創(chuàng)作小說。故選C。

推理判斷題要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基礎(chǔ)上，做出一定的推理判斷，從而得到文章的隱含意義和深層意義。推理判斷題所涉及的內(nèi)容可能是文中的某一句話，也可能是某幾句話，所以，推理題的答案只能是根據(jù)原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即對原文某一句話或某幾句話所作的同義改寫或綜合。推理判斷題的題干中通常含infer,suggest,imply,conclude indicate等標(biāo)志性詞語。 這種題型主要包括細(xì)節(jié)判斷題、態(tài)度觀點推斷題、寫作意圖推斷題、文章出處判斷題和猜測想象推斷題。本題第4小題，根據(jù)全文和第一段的Teenagers have their own TV channels， websites and magazines. So what about books？可知，這篇文章主要是鼓勵更多作家為青少年創(chuàng)作小說。故選C。
