Hillary Rodham Clinton released the first television spot of her Senate campaign this morning， a 30-second commercial that will begin airing statewide on Thursday. The spot， titled “First”， uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs. Clinton‘s career， while the voiceover says she is “more than a first lady.” There is no mention of Mrs. Clinton‘s rival for New York’s Senate 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.
Mrs. Clinton has previously aired radio ads， but has generally stayed with a strategy of making extensive campaign appearances instead of using television spots， while Giuliani has already run statewide TV ads. Text of Hillary Commercial：
First she became a lawyer， named one of the top hudred in America. Her first cause was children， fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children‘s Defense Fund.
Her first priority was public schools， helping to establish teacher testing. More than a first lady. For 30 years， she‘s fought for children and families. As New York‘s senator， she’ll fight for better schools and heath care for children.
Hillary. Put her to work for all of us.
1. What does the word “air” in the first sentence mean？ A. dry B. express. C. breathe. d. broadcast. 答案： Ｄ
考点： 该题是一个词汇题。
解析： 本题提问的是第一段中的＂air＂是什么意思。由这句话我们可以得知，希拉里今天早晨发表了她竞选纽约议员的电视宣传；为时30分钟的电视宣传将于星期二开始进行全国播放。由该句的意思我们可以猜出＂air＂的意思是＂播放＂。所以答案为Ｄ。 2. What does “more than first lady in the first paragraph suggest？ A. Hillary is not a first lady.
B. Hillary does much more than what a first lady is expected to do. C. There are more women in America who does better than Hillary does. D. Hillary is doing better than her husband. 答案： Ｂ
考点： 这是一个理解判断题。
解析： 本题提问的是第一段里＂more than first lady＂是什么意思。在世界各地，第一夫人作为国家元首的妻子，是一国之母，也的形象一般是一个帮助总统处理好家务，并且进行一些妇女活动和慈善事业，借此来提高元首的形象。但是，希拉里作为第一夫人，她所做的超出了第一夫人的职责。她不但在社会活动中经常露脸，而且直接参与政事，开始竞选起议员来了。所以，选项Ｂ应该是该题答案。
3. Which of the following statement is true regarding the Senator campaign according the passage？
A. Hillary has appeared on TV shot for numerous times. B. Hillary rarely makes her public appearance. C. Giuliani has made TV advertisement for himself. D. Hillary has a bigger chance to win the campaign. 答案： Ｃ
考点： 这是一个对原文事实的理解题。
解析： 本题提问的是对此参议院竞选，以下哪一个说法是正确的。文章的第四段告诉我们，希拉里以前曾经在广播上作过宣传；与她不同的是，giuliani已作过全国电视宣传。由该段可知，选项Ｃ是正确答案。从文章的第一句话我们可以得知。这是希拉里第上次在电视上为自己作宣传，所以，选项Ａ和Ｂ不符合原文；此次议员竞选，花落谁手尚未见分明，所以，选项Ｄ也不能入选。
4. Hillary‘s campaign focuses on all the following except ____. A. children‘s health care. B. school education for children. C. combating child abuse. D. family planning policy.
答案： Ｄ
考点： 这是一个对原文细节的分析判断题。
解析： 本题提问的是以下哪一个不是希拉里的竞选重点。希拉里的竞选广告在文章的最后几段里：它的重点是学校教育；作者评论道，在过去的30年里，希拉里一直都在为儿童和家庭幸福斗争。将来当了纽约的参议员，她会为孩子们的良好教育和健康保险而努力；由此我们可以得知，选项Ａ（儿童健康保险），Ｂ（儿童的学校教育）和Ｃ（打击虐待儿童现象）都是她的竞选重点，只有选项Ｄ（计划生育政策）与原文不合，所以Ｄ是本题答案。 5. Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage？ A. First Lady‘s Senator Campaign. B. Hillary‘s TV Advertisement.
C. A Rivalry for New York‘s Senate Seat. D. The Focuses of Hillary Campaign. 答案： Ａ
考点： 该题是一个主旨题，考的是文章的题目应该是哪一个。
解析： 本文从第一夫人希拉里克林顿为其入选纽约参议员拉开序幕讲起，对目前的竞选状况作了一个大概介绍，并且对希拉里的竞选内容作了一个介绍，同时，作者表达他自己的观点；整篇文章以介绍她的竞选情况为主，所以，选项Ａ（第一夫人竞选参议员）用以概括全文最为全面，为正确答案。 Passage 4
The latest version of the “Love Bug” computer virus failed to cause nearly as much harm as its predecessor because companies remained on alert.
The new virus， dubed “NewLove”， slowly spread across the world over the past two days， infecting thousands of computers.
But the damage caused didn‘t approach that caused by the first version， which infected millions of computers around the world two weeks ago and caused more than ＄10 billion in damages.
Because awareness was heightened by the Love Bug， network administrators responded much more quickly to NewLove and stymied it before it got out of control. “In this perspective， Love Bug was a very positive wakeup call，” said Gene Hodges at security company Network Associates Inc， in Santa Clara， Calif.
