“My friend, Henry Faffenburger stomped down the long lane on his short stumpy legs, moonlight glancing off his bald-spot, which was a little surprising as there was no moon that night. As he rounded the bend, he saw a pair of headlights coming toward him. They drew level, and stopped. A small man with yellow eyes emerged from the darkness behind the lights, and enquired if Faffenburger would like a lift.
"Where are you going ?" asked my friend. "Wherever you want to go", replied the owner of the yellow eyes.”

考点：考察广告类短文阅读
点评：本文讲述的是各个年龄段的孩子适合看的书，文章还详细介绍了各本书的具体内容。属于广告类短文，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。广告英语文句精练，信息量大，表达方式千变万化，做这种题目先略读题目，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。
