1.B others等于other people表示“部分人”;other为形容词,其后必须跟名词;the other为两者中的另一个;the others意为“另一部分中的全部”,此句并无特指之意。故选B。
2.C 从上句的teenagers和并列连词and可以得知此处也指年轻人。故选C。
3.D 下句告诉我们“广告可使我们买到我们真正想要的东西”,说明某些广告很有用。故选D。
4.A 比较不同广告的目的是“可以买到真正想要的东西”,so that意为“以便于”;so ... that中间用形容词或副词,引导结果状语从句;in order to后跟动词原形;that引导定语从句或宾语从句。故选A。
5.D 根据下文意思可知此处意为“某些广告可以帮助你省钱。”save money 省钱。故选D。
6.C 用最少的钱即最低的价格买到最好的东西。故选C。
7.C 本句谈广告的误导作用,但还不至于有害,且下文中说到广告只用华丽的语言,而不涉及东西的质量,甚至图片内容也要比实际东西好,可以看出只是误导人们。故选C。
8.D 有的广告为了哗众取宠,不谈产品质量本身。anything用于否定句或疑问句,而nothing本身已表否定。故选D。
9.B 商家为了吸引消费者,经常使图片好于实物,所以用比较级。故选B。
10.A 广告有误导作用,有时还带有欺骗性,所以买东西应当小心。be后要跟形容词,所以选careful。careless 不小心的。故选A。
