22、.Other systems in the tunnel will include emergency phones.,The passage is mainly about _.A.the construction of a road B.the design of a road C.the construction of two tunnels D.the design of two tunnels,体裁：说明文,没有主题句找反复出现的词语,文章标题型,文章标题就是对文章主要意思的概括，考查对全文中心思想的理解，因此，解答这类题的方法与解答主要内容题基本相同，都是寻找主题句，或归纳主要内容

27、readers（说服读者接受某种观点）：常见于广告或议论文。3)to inform readers（告知读者某些信息）：多见于新闻报道类、科普类、文化类或社会类的文章，以及劝告性或建议性的文章。,例题一：How should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation(通货膨胀)?Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value,however high the interest rate.Only a brave man,or a very rich one,dares to buy and
