16、主题词会在文章中反复出现),利用问题句中的细节信息词Marriage advertisements和appearance and their skill作为答案线索, 在文章中找到答案相关句:For example, although women are still described in terms of appearance, or skill in “the wifely arts,” information about her earning power is entering more and more of the advertisements. 答案相关句说“尽管广告依然描述妇

A. 这道题是主旨题。文章第一段倒数第3句直接反映文章主题:The thousands of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social changes that coming to this traditional society. 该句说“每周公布的数以千计的广告反映出这个传统的社会正发生着变化”。3.
