解析
         
神往于万里长城的宏伟和壮观,醉心于平遥古城的秀美与神秘,痴迷于哈尔滨冰城的晶莹与剔透,本文中的三则广告正好可以将你的心愿一一满足,游长城,庆圣诞,吃烧烤;品古风,走旧迹;游冰城,赏冰景,迎新岁……
小题1:C 这是一道细节推理题。看平遥古城无疑有助于了解中国古代人的生活。
小题2:A 这是一道词义猜测题。第一段广告中的远足活动有三个特色:游长城,庆圣诞,吃烧烤,这应该被体现在广告的标题中。从构词形式及发音可以猜测出,“BBQ”是barbecue的简缩写法,这与用“Xmas”表示Christmas的风格相同,barbecue“烧烤”,是一种用餐方式。
小题3:C 这是一道细节理解题。根据The town is one of the best-preserved featuring courtyard buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties可知平遥古城是保存完好的古建筑,这正是它的特色,也是值得观光的主要方面。
