EP Portable Heater

We all know that the cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. Now millions of people are saving on their heating bills with the EP portable heater. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EP heats better and faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent.

The EP has no exposed heating parts that can cause a fire. The outside of the EP only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets.

The EP will not reduce oxygen in the room. With other heaters, you'll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen.

The advanced EP also heats the room evenly,_ wall to wall and floor to ceiling. It comfortably covers an area up to 350 square feet. Other heaters heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated to the center of the room. And they only heat an area a few feet around the heater. With the EP, the temperature will not vary in any part of the room.

The EP comes with a 3-year warranty(保修) and a 60-day, no questions asked, satisfaction guarantee. If you are not totally satisfied, return it at our expense and your money will be given back to you.

Now we have a special offer for 10 days, during which you can enjoy a half price discount and a free delivery. If you order after that, we reserve the right to either accept or reject order requests at the discounted price.

【要点综述】 这是一篇广告，主要宣传的是一种新型的取暖器。这种取暖器能降低耗电量，为业主省钱；安全，不伤害儿童及宠物；不消耗房间氧气；供暖均匀，遍及房间任何地方；三年保修，60天包换；十天内半价，免费送货。

62．D 　词义猜测题。根据第四段evenly之后的解释“wall to wall and floor to ceiling”可知，墙与墙之间，地板到屋顶是全部的空间，因此加热是均匀的。continuously连续不断地；separately单独地，个别地；quickly迅速地；equally平均地，均等地。

63．A 　作者意图题。根据文章前面介绍的内容和最后的“Take action right now！”可知，本文是产品销售的广告，目的是吸引人们购买。
