become so perfectly inescapable that, at the end of the day, you just have to sit back and admire it — or at least accept it. It used to be that embedded advertisements were harmless.They were obvious, but priceless too.These days, however, people have to draw the line when Tom Hanks makes best friends with a brand-name volleyball on the screen.Pretty soon may come the day when we can't sit through a Renaissance-set show without local servants sporting the latest mobile phone! Many people have just grown indifferent to the brand promotion.It's sad that we sometimes have to judge the worth of movies and shows based on how perfectly they're able to include brands into a storyline. We can look at The Social Network as an example of how embedded marketing can be destructive or made more pleasant.What could have been a two-hour ad for a famous social media site was instead fashioned into a thematic exploration of the network's impact on its users.The film examines the network's expansion and makes us question how it has changed the concept of “connectedness” in the so-called information era.We really have to give credit for this. In such cases the attempt is being made to introduce a certain amount of artfulness where there could have easily been none.Such examples are thought of as “progressive product placement”， which could serve as a model.If today's embedded advertising can be dealt with in the clever and attractive way, people won't remain either indifferent to or calm about it. 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了随处可见的广告植入现象。 1．What is the feature of embedded advertising according to the first paragraph? A．Costly.　　　　　　 B．Meaningful. C．Appealing. D．Widespread. 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段可知，本段内容介绍了植入式广告无处不在这一特点。 √ 2．Why does the author mention Tom Hanks and servants in Paragraph 2? A．To compare two different kinds of ads. B．To show effect of present embedded advertising. C．To indicate the necessity of ads for products. D．To explain the development of embedded advertising. √ 解析：推理判断题。第二段首先说明过去的植入式广告是无害的，接着通过转折提到如今的植入式广告，然后举例说明，最后两句作出评论。故举例的目的在于说明作者的观点，表明了如今的植入式广告产生的影响。 3．What does the author think of The Social Network? A．It is impractical. B．It is questionable. C．It is praiseworthy. D．It is complicated. 解析：观点态度题。根据第三段中的“We really have to give credit for this.”可知，作者对这部电影持赞许态度。 √ 4．What can be inferred about progressive product placement? A．It deals with the ads skillfully. B．It explores artistic themes in films. C．It increases the brand exposure. D．It introduces the products in detail. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In such cases the attempt is ... clever and attractive way”可知，在一些案例中，人们试图引入一些本来很可能没有的巧妙手法，作者认为这样的例子是“进步的植入式广告”，值得如今的植入式广告学习。由此可推知，进步的植入式广告巧妙地处理了广告。 B (2024·朔州模拟)A Dutch city will become the first in the world to ban meat adverts from public spaces in an effort to reduce consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (排放)．Haarlem, which lies to the west of Amsterdam and has a population of about 160,000, will enact the prohibition from 2024 after meat was added to a list of products thought to contribute to the climate crisis. Adverts will not be allowed on Haarlem's buses, shelters and screens in public spaces, causing complaints from the meat sector that the city government is “going too far in telling people what's best for them”． Recent studies suggest global food production is responsible for one-third of all planet-heating emissions, with the use of animals for meat accounting for twice the pollution of producing plant-based foods.Forests that absorb carbon dioxide are cut down for the grazing (放牧) of animals while fertilisers used for growing their feed are rich in nitrogen (氮), which can contribute to air and water pollution and climate change.Livestock also produces large quantities of methane (甲烷), a powerful greenhouse gas. Ziggy Klazes, a councillor from the GroenLinks party, who drafted the law banning meat advertising, said she had not known the city would be the world's first to enforce (执行) such a policy when she proposed it.She told the Haarlem105 radio channel，“We are not about what people are baking and roasting in their own kitchen; if people wanted to continue eating meat, fine ...Of course, there are a lot of people who find the decision unacceptable, but there are also a lot of people who think it's fine.” The ban also covers holiday flights, fossil fuels and cars that run on fossil fuels.The ban is delayed until 2024 due to existing contracts with companies that sell the products. Research suggests that to meet the EU target of net zero emissions by 2050, meat consumption must be reduced to 24 kg per person per year, compared with the current average of 82 kg, or 75.8 kg in the Netherlands, which is the EU's biggest meat exporter. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是为了减少碳排放，一个荷兰城市Haarlem在全球首禁肉食广告。 5．What does the underlined word “enact” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Lift.　　　　　　　　 B．Keep. C．Draft. D．Pass. √ 解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“she had not known the city would be the world's first to enforce such a policy when she proposed it”可知，画线词所在句的意思是“Haarlem将从2024年开始通过这一禁令”，enact的含义是“通过(法律)”，与pass意思相近。 6．What's the attitude of people from the meat sector to the new law? A．Acceptable. B．Dissatisfied. C．Uncared. D．Supportive. 解析：观点态度题。根据第二段可以推测出，肉类行业对于这项新法律是不满意的。 √ 7．What's the main idea of the third paragraph? A．The seriousness of air pollution. B．The benefits of eating plant-based foods. C．The reasons for banning meat adverts in public. D．The importance of protecting the environment. √ 解析：段落大意题。根据第三段可知，本段主要讲的是生产肉类对环境的不良影响，即主要介绍了禁止在公共场合做肉类广告的原因。 8．What's the maximum meat consumption for Dutch people annually to meet the EU 2050 target of net zero emissions? A．24 kg per person. B．82 kg per person. C．75.8 kg per person. D．105 kg per person. 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，研究表明，要实现欧盟2050年净零排放的目标，肉类消费必须减少到每人每年24公斤，荷兰人同样如此。 √ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 After determining the target audience for a product or service, advertising agencies must select the appropriate media for the advertisement.We discuss here the major types of media used in advertising. 9 Television is an attractive medium for advertising because it delivers mass audiences to advertisers.When you consider that nearly three out of four Americans have seen the game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? you can understand the power of television to communicate with a large audience.When advertisers create a brand, for example, they want to impress consumers with the brand and its image. 10 But television is an expensive medium, and not all advertisers can afford to use it. 11 The New York Times, which reaches a national audience, accounts for $1 billion in ad revenue annually. It has increased its national circulation (发行量) by 40% and is now available for home delivery. 12 Newspapers are often the most important form of news for a local community, and they develop a high degree of loyalty from local readers. As consumers become more comfortable with online shopping, advertisers will seek to reach this market. As consumers get more of their news and information from the Internet, the ability of television and radio to get the word out to consumers will decrease. 13 Many think Internet advertising will play a more prominent role in organizations' advertising in the near future. A．Advertising is becoming more popular. B．Locally, newspapers are the largest advertising medium. C．Television provides an ideal vehicle for this type of communication. D．Magazines are popular with advertisers because of the market that they deliver. E．The challenge to Internet advertisers is to create ads that audience members remember. F．After television, the medium attracting the next largest annual ad revenue is newspapers. G．We focus our attention on three types of advertising: television, newspapers, and the Internet. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了用于广告的三种媒体。 9．解析：选G　上文提到会讨论几种用于广告的媒体；下文主要介绍了电视、报纸和互联网三种媒体。故G项承上启下，符合语境。 10．解析：选C　本段提到电视这一媒体。空前提到当广告商创建一个品牌时，他们希望用品牌和形象来打动消费者，C项“电视为这种交流方式提供了理想的载体”承接上文，符合语境。 11．解析：选F　根据下文“The New York Times”及“Newspapers”可知，此处讲报纸这一媒体。故F项承上启下，符合语境。 12．解析：选B　空后一句提到报纸通常是当地社区最重要的新闻形式，它们培养了当地读者的高度忠诚度。故B项“在当地，报纸是最大的广告媒介”衔接下文，符合语境。 13．解析：选E　空前一句提到随着消费者从互联网上获得更多的新闻和信息，电视和广播向消费者传递消息的能力将会下降。E项“互联网广告商面临的挑战是如何创作出让观众记住的广告”承接上文，符合语境。 Ⅲ.完形填空 (2024·郴州模拟)Lenore Skenazy is a New York journalist.When she wrote about how she had left her nine-year-old son in central New York and let him take the subway home alone, she caused a(n) 14 media storm.Her son, Izzy, whose 15 the expedition (出行) had been, was happy with the experience.
