guinness world records, the global authority on record-breaking achievements, presented China Central TV(CCTV) the world record for Most Watched National Network TV Broadcast for its annual Spring Festival Gala show. The program, which is produced especially to celebrate the Chinese New Year, had a reach of 498,659,000 viewers, making it the most watched national entertainment show in the world.

The official record certificate was presented by Mr. Alistair Richards, Global Managing Director of Guinness World Records, to CCTV Vice President Mr. Luo Ming during a special “China in Cannes” reception co-hosted with Reed MIDEM.

CSM Media Research, which supplied the viewing figures for Guinness World Records, considered viewers aged 4 years or above who watched at least one minute of the 2012 show on either CCTV-1, 3 or 4, the three channels which aired the show simultaneously. The figure refers to viewers on any one of the three channels, thus not including duplications(重播). This represents almost 40% of the China TV population aged 4 years or above.

Commenting on cctv’s incredible(惊人的) record achievement, Alistair Richards said, “It is fitting that we celebrate this amazing achievement at MIPTV. National networks have the power to move nations and CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala is the ultimate example. It reaches nearly half a billion people on the biggest holiday of their year.”

CCTV Vice President Luo Ming, who accepted the Guinness World Records certificate on behalf of CCTV, said, “Chinese new Year is a special time for families in China and our Spring Festival Gala has been the traditional TV entertainment highlight for three decades. Although this is a world record achieved by our viewers, it is also a record won by the staff of CCTV, who makes it possible for our television shows to reach homes right across China.”

The new record will be included in the next edition of the world famous Guinness World Records book.

【答案与解析】

1. C。细节理解题。从第三段第一句which supplied the viewing figures for Guinness World Records可知C项正确。从第二段可知A、B项不正确,从第三段the 2012 show on either CCTV-1, 3 or 4可知D项不正确。

2. D。词义猜测题。根据第三段内容提示,CSM Media Research所提供的数据是根据央视1、3或4三个频道观看春晚观众的人数为基础,并不包括重播人数,判断画线词应该表示“同时”最为合理。

3. A。推理判断题。根据第四段相关内容(如CCTV’s incredible record achievement, this amazing achievement,the ultimate example等)提示,我们可以判断Alistair Richards给予春晚高度的评价。

4. B。推理判断题。从倒数第二段it is also a record won by the staff of CCTV一句可知B正确。从最后一段可知A项不正确,其他两项在文中均找不到依据。

【词汇聚焦】

on behalf of 做……的代表或代言人;为……的利益

例如:Thank you very much on behalf of my colleagues and myself. 我代表同事和我自己向你表示谢意。

on也可用in代替。

例如:The spokesman insisted on the stand in behalf of the Chinese government. 发言人代表中国政府坚持立场。

该短语也可变换形式:on/in sb’s behalf。

例如:John is not present, so I shall accept the prize on his behalf. 约翰不在场,所以我代表他领奖。

【难句解析】

1. The program, which is produced especially to celebrate the Chinese New Year, had a reach of 498,659,000 viewers on CCTV-1, 3 and 4 in 2012, making it the most watched national entertainment show in the world. 这个节目(春节晚会)专门为庆祝中国新年而制作,于2012年通过央视一套、三套和四套播出,有498 659 000名观众收看,这使其成为全世界收看人数最多的全国性娱乐节目。

句子主语是the program,谓语部分是had a reach...。which引导的是非限制定语从句,修饰主语the program。making it the most watched national entertainment show in the world是现在分词短语作状语,表示结果。

句中reach用作名词,在这里表示“(电视节目)所覆盖的范围,覆盖面”。

2. CSM Media Research, which supplied the viewing figures for Guinness World Records, considered viewers aged 4 years or above who watched at least one minute of the 2012 show on either CCTV-1, 3 or 4, the three channels which aired the show simultaneously. 2012年的这个节目(春节晚会)通过中央一套、三套和四套同步播出,为吉尼斯世界纪录提供收看数据的CSM媒介研究统计了所有4岁及以上、通过这三个台中任一台收看了这个节目一分钟以上的观众数目。

该句包含了多个定语从句。which supplied the viewing figures for Guinness World Records为非限制性定语从句,修饰CSM Media Research。分词短语aged 4 years or above修饰viewers,后面的who watched at least one minute of the 2012 show on either CCTV-1, 3 or 4则是个定语从句,修饰前面的viewers aged 4 years or above。最后的which aired the show simultaneously也是一个定语从句,修饰the three channels,the three channels which aired the show simultaneously整体为CCTV-1, 3 or 4的同位语。

3. Although this is a world record achieved by our viewers, it is also a record won by the staff of CCTV, who makes it possible for our television shows to reach homes right across China. 虽然这项世界记录是由我们的观众获得的,但也是由央视全体人员获得的,是他们让电视节目走进中国的千家万户。

句中although引导的让步状语从句,在这个从句中,achieved by our viewers和won by the staff of CCTV作后置定语修饰a record。who引导非限制定语从句修饰the staff of CCTV,其中在这个定语从句中还有一个常用的结构:make it possible for... to do...。
