Question

A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months.
“Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement. But it really doesn’t have to be that way,” said Anaclerio. Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Carlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year –old, founded a home party-planning business called “A Party in a Basket.” Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.
Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created 10 ready-to-use, home party packages. Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.
“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10, ” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive （互動(dòng)） and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject. For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations.”
The standard $ 200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.

試題分析：本文介紹了一項(xiàng)與孩子過(guò)生日有關(guān)的廣告，只不過(guò)表達(dá)的方式有點(diǎn)和普通的廣告不一樣。
小題1:D 推理題。根據(jù)文章最后一段  The standard $ 200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.說(shuō)明本文實(shí)際上是一則廣告，介紹一種和孩子過(guò)生日有關(guān)的服務(wù)項(xiàng)目。故D正確。
小題2:C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段最后三行Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.說(shuō)明這樣做的目的是讓孩子和父母親在一起分享快樂(lè)，故C正確。
小題3:A 推理題。根據(jù)第二段1,2行Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement.可知這里描述的內(nèi)容就是第一段中a hassle所指的意思，故是指給家人帶來(lái)很多的麻煩的事情。故A正確。
