Passage 2Questions 34-35 ● Read the extract of an article below about product promotion. ● In most of the lines 34-45 there is one extra word. It is either grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the sense of the text. Some lines, however, are correct. ● If a line is correct, write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet. ● If there is an extra word in the line, write the extra word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet. ● The exercise begins with two examples, (0) and (00). Example: Choosing the Right Promotional Product Can Attract Buzz 0. It is important to know as much as that you can about the recipient of a 00. promotional item or corporate gift. If you give one group an iPod they will 34. be motivated by it, while another group will see it as something which they 35. can use it to re-gift to someone else. And unless your product ends up in the 36. hands of the person you intended to, the influence over their behavior you 37. were hoping to leverage is completely lost. “It’s got to have lasting value 38. and that doesn’t necessarily mean a high cost,” says a client. ‘I’ve got a 39. flashlight at home that I use every time when the power goes out and it’s still 40. got the name of the company that gave it to me on it.’ Size is also a factor. If 41. most of your attendees are within their driving distance of your event then 42. you can give them something so big because it’s not going to be a problem 43. to take home. But if the majority of attendees have been flown in, then a 44. smaller, more portable item would be a better bet. High-quality T-shirts, the 45. latest high-tech mouse pad or a few high-end golf balls may be fit the bill.
正确答案:
34. WHICH (不定代词作先行词,从句用that引导。如果这个先行词在从句中作宾语时可省略that。故which多余。) 35. IT (定语从句中use的宾语是something,故it多余。) 36. To (此句完整表达为“… in the hands of the person you intended to give”,此处用省略形式 “…in the hands of the person you intended”,故to多余。) 37. CORRECT 38. A (high cost此处指“价格高昂”。当cost作“价钱;费用”讲时为不可数名词,应去掉不定冠词a。) 39. WHEN (every time就可引导时间状语从句,when多余。) 40. CORRECT 41. THEIR (within driving distance指“在驱车可及的范围”,their多余。) 42. So (此处形容词big做后置定语直接修饰不定代词something。故so多余。) 43. BEEN (此处主语是人,与谓语动词flow in之间是主动关系,故been为多余。) 44. CORRECT 45. BE (fit the bill指“符合要求”,此处应该是主动形式,be多余。)
