Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of herSenate campaign this morning, a 30-second commercial that will begin airingstatewide on Thursday. The spot, titled “First,” uses numerous still photos tohighlight landmarks in Mrs. Clinton's career, while the voiceover says she is“more than a fist lady.”

There is no mention of Mrs. Clinton's rivalfor New York'sSenate seat, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said the ad was “positive” and“biographical,” instead of focusing on the first lady's opponent.

[難點]

1. 今早，希拉里競選紐約州議員的電視演説拉開了序幕;Hillary Rodham Clinton：希拉里;美國現任總統克林頓夫人。Spot:(在無線電廣播、電視中播出的)短小節目;commercial:宣傳

2.這句話的意思是該電視節目特別播出了希拉里政績上的一些重要照片。Highlight:突出;landmark：(具有轉折意義的)重大事件

3. Voiceover：旁白;話外音

4. Biographical:關於一個人的材料的;美國，一般的競選廣告都包括競選雙方的資料，但是在該電視廣告裏，只播放了希拉里的資料，所以克氏競選團的發言人説，這次廣告具有肯定意義。

5. Strategy:策略6. Abuse：虐待

[答案]1.D考點：該題是一個詞彙題

解析：本題提問的是第一段中的“air”是什麼意思。由這句話我們可以得知，希拉里今天早晨發表了她競選紐約州議員的電視宣傳;為時30分鐘的電視宣傳將於星期二開始進行全國播放。由該句的意思我們可以猜出“air”的意思為“播放”。所以，答案為D.而其他三個詞A(曬乾)，B(表達)和C(呼吸)均與原義不符，故不能入選。

2.B考點：這是一個理解判斷題。

解析：本題提問的是第一段裏“morethan first lady”是什麼意思。在世界各地，夫人作為國家元首的妻子，是一國母，她的形象一般是一個幫助總統處理好家務，並且進行一些婦女活動和慈善事業，藉此來提高元首的形象。但是，希拉里作為夫人，她所做的超出了夫人的職責。她不但在社會活動中經常露臉，而且直接參與政事，開始競選起議員來了。所以，選項B應該是該題的答案。

3.C考點：這是一個對原文事實的.理解題。

解析：本題提問的是對此次參議院競選，以下哪一個説法是正確的。文章的第四段告訴我們，希拉里以前曾經在廣播上作過宣傳，但是她一直採取的戰略是頻頻在公眾場合出現，而不是使用電視宣傳;與她不同的是，Giuliani已作過全國電視宣傳。由該段可知，選項C為正確答案。從文章的第一句話我們可以得知，這是希拉里第一次在電視上為自己作宣傳，所以，選項A和B不符合原文;此次議員競選，花落誰手尚未分曉，所以，選項D也不能入選。

4.D考點：這是一個對原文細節的分析判斷題。

解析：本題提問的是以下哪一下不是希拉里的競選重點。希拉里的競選廣告在文章的最後幾段裏;它的重點是學校教育;作者評論道，在過去的30年裏，希拉里一直都在為兒童和家庭的幸福鬥爭。將來當了紐約的參議員，她會為孩子們的良好教育和健康保險而努力;由此我們得知，選項A(兒童健康保險)B(兒童的學校教育)和C(打擊虐待兒童現象)都是她的競選重點，只有選項D(計劃生育政策)與原文不合，所以，D為本題答案。

5.A考點：該題是一個主旨題，考的是文章的題目應該是哪一個。

解析：本文從夫人希拉里-克林頓為其入選紐約參議員拉開序幕講起，對目前的競選狀況作了一個大概介紹，並且對希拉里的競選內容作了一個介紹，同時，作者表達了他自己的觀點;整篇文章以介紹她的競選情況為主，所以，選項A(夫人競選參議員)用以概括全文最為全面，因此，為正確答案。
