广告英语与普通英语存在许多差异，而又与人们日常生活密切相关，应用性很强。所以广告类阅读题可以很好地考查学生提取信息、处理信息的能力，也是历年来高考考查的一个热点。2003年高考全国卷就再次出现此类题目。但也正因为广告英语不同于学生平时所学习的普通英语，其文句精练，信息量大，表达方式千变万化，许多学生面对这种题目要么束手无策，要么需要花费大量时间才能完成，都不得要领，所以要加强针对性训练。其实，做这种题目也是有法可循的：先略读题目，再浏览题干，然后带着问题找答案。在阅读时又要特别注意文中以黑体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或至少是一部分内容的概括。下面就是几道此类题目的练习题，同学们不妨试试……

2.问以哪种方式付费必须等两天或更长时间才可以得到答复。答案是C.BYFAX项下有Please allow at least 48 hours for reply，if required.
3.问星期天上午11点可以打哪个电话号码。在第一个BOXOFFICE项下可找到答案B.0541541051（24hours，7days）。另一号码01789295623根据信息9a.m.-8p.m.（Mon-Sat），星期天不可用。而选项C和D中的号码是FAX号码。所以，正确答案为B项。
