Reading Comprehension 12% (56-61 題,每題 2 分) <A> A tag line is the phrase that follows your brand name. Remember "N-E-S-T-L-E-S: Nestlé makes the very best chocolate?" It is a memorable tag line that differentiates itself from its competitors. Often, a good tag line is quite simple, such as Tyson's "We're chicken." Within this simplicity, however, lies their greatest strength-a narrowly defined positioning. Tag lines work especially well when a new product is introduced. They act as a quick reference system for the consumer. For example, Listerine toothpaste is "The toothpaste that kills germs for a cleaner, fresher mouth." While a slogan changes with the campaign, a tag line remains virtually static for many years. "Shouldn't your baby be a Gerber baby?" still resonates with consumers as does "Choosy Moms choose Jif." How do you carefully craft and employ a tag line? Although there's no secret formula in this highly subjective area, here are a few guidelines: 1. Ensure that it is consistent with the brand name and positioning. 2. Convey the message in consumer language. 3. Communicate one simple idea. 4. Opt for a few, short words. 5. Always use the tag line on the product, in advertising, and in any other consumer communication. Since tag lines are often at the end of a commercial or at the bottom of an ad, they act as your PS: the last best hope to propel your message. If they are employed properly, your consumers will understand your brand and its unique point of difference. 56. Which following phrase is closest to the phrase, “resonate with”? (A) be familiar to (B) be reasonable to (C) send signals to (D) send warning to 國立師大附中 95 學年度第一學期高一第二次段考英語科試卷 7-6 57. What is an important feature of a good tag line? (A) It has to be long. (B) It has to be very complicated. (C) It has to grab consumers’ attention. (D) It has to be printed on the packages of products. 58. According to the author’s guidelines, which of the following sentences is the best tag line? (A) Start the day with great taste of our brand new coffee. (Nescafé) (B) It's everywhere you want to be. Use it, PLEASE. (Visa) (C) Don't just book it. Thomas Cook it. (Thomas Cook) (D) I liked it so much I bought the company. (Remington) <B> Recently, more and more libraries and schools schedule reading hours for children and Therapy Dogs. Children and dogs bond together over a shared story. As a result, children's confidence and reading skills grow in a relaxing environment. Therapy Dogs give children the encouragement they need to read aloud. As Diane Mitchell, Branch Manager of Richland Public Library in Mississippi says, "More confidence in reading could lead to improved grades and improved grades mean happy children and parents." Vicki Hogan of Thomas C. Miller Elementary School reports that "children who once struggled to read are now improving their skills and their confidence." An added bonus, Ms, Hogan says, "Children have developed a healthy appreciation for dogs and have learned to interact with dogs in a positive supportive situation." Bernadette Duvernoy of Hayner Public Library in Alton, Illinois, who started Bow-wow, Pow-wow Reading Program, also states, "These animals have been wonderful for our children. The children learn that the library is a fun place to visit. They learn that dogs are sweet, gentle creatures that deserve respect and kindness." TDI Dogs come in all shapes and sizes; real dogs with real personalities and real love to share. TDI's Reading Program is a wonderful opportunity for children to interact with and learn about dogs in a positive manner. "Children Reading to Dogs" is one facet of the many TDI programs. Schools or libraries may submit a written request to TDI for Therapy Dog visits. Facilities and handlers can then decide the specifics of their individual reading sessions. Make a difference in a child's life. For more information or to request Therapy Dog visits to your facility, please contact us: Therapy Dogs International, Inc. 88 Bartley Road Flanders, NJ 07836 Telephone: (973) 252-9800 59.
