问题   Amid the endless typing and clicking on smartphones and computers, ink-based writing instruments continue to prevail, which is why Platinum Pen remains committed to providing high-quality, elegant and affordable fountain pens to discerning customers for whom the art of writing will never die.
  Channeling the spirit of Japanese monozukuri craftsmanship for more than a century, Platinum Pen, which celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2019, combines tradition and innovation to develop writing instruments fit for the needs and desires of its modern customers, based firmly on the belief that its fountain pens will always have a place even in our highly digitalized world.
  " Writing contributes to creativity and brain activity; and the use of writing instruments in exams and reports continues to increase. In Europe, fountain pens have been used since the compulsory education stage. The digital mega-trend is easy to see, but the other side continues to exist. Just as a pendulum does not swing only in one direction," says Platinum Pen’s president, Toshiya Nakata, who highlights the important role of the fountain pen in a world where mindfulness, reconnecting with tradition and "digital detox" have become increasingly popular concepts.
  In a bid to encourage the wide-range use of fountain pens, Platinum launched Preppy fountain pens in 2007, since which more than 10 million Preppy fountain pens have been sold worldwide. Offering smooth writing and high quality at a very low price, Preppy fountain pens are perfect for beginners and have become incredibly popular with younger women thanks to their cool, sleek and modern design. The Preppy features Platinum’s patented "Slip and Seal" mechanism that prevents the nib from drying out after long periods without use. "This allows comfortable writing with fresh ink anytime and also reduces the need for repairs considerably," explains Mr. Nakata. "We applied the technology to the Preppy series to make it easier to handle for people who do not use fountain pens regularly. "
  For serious fountain pen enthusiasts seeking a more luxury and classic style, the " Slip and Seal" mechanism is also a feature of Platinum’s premium #3776 series. Launched in 2011, the #3776 Century pen—whose name is a nod to being the No. 1 fountain pen in Japan featuring the height of Mount Fuji (3,776m)—boasts a 14k gold nib and cartridge converter-style fill system. Forty years on since the release of the first # 3776 brand, the # 3776 Century is the result of Platinum’s untiring efforts over the past one hundred years to craft the ideal fountain pen.
Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

选项 A、Digital Devices Lose Their Role
B、Writing Excellence for More Than a Century
C、The Triumph of Preppy Fountain Pens
D、The Significance of Writing in Our Daily Life

答案B

解析 主旨题。解答主旨题的关键是通过把握各段的段落大意(一般位于段落的首尾句)来把握全文主旨。选项A与第一段第一句的endless“无休止的”和第三段第三句的digital mega-trend“数字大趋势”相悖,故排除;选项C是第四段的片面表达,原文中只是提到“预科生”钢笔销量好,价格低,并没有将其与其他钢笔做对比,故排除;选项D是第三段提到的内容,不足以概括全文,故排除;文章第一段到第三段讲的是在数字大趋势的背景下,白金笔仍然致力于开发优秀的书写工具,第四段讲解了白金笔公司推出的“预科生”系列,第五段讲解了该公司推出的#776世纪笔系列,文章描述的内容均与白金笔公司为满足客户书写的需求而作出的一系列努力有关,且2019年是其100周年纪念日,故选项B正确。
