问题     Television is now playing a very important part in our life. But television, like other things, has both advantages and disadvantages. Do the former overweigh the latter?
    In the first【C1】, television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a (n)【C2】cheap one. For a family of four, for example, it is more【C3】as well as cheaper to sit comfortably at home, with almost unlimited entertainment【C4】, than to go out in【C5】of other sorts of entertainment【C6】. They do not have to pay for expensive seats at the theater, the cinema, or the opera, only to discover, perhaps, that the show is【C7】. All they have to do is【C8】a button, and they can see plays, films, operas, and shows of every kind, not to【C9】political discussions and the【C10】exciting football match. Some people,【C11】. maintain that this is precisely where the danger lies. The television viewer【C12】no initiative. He makes no choice and exercises no judgment. He is completely【C13】and has everything presented to him without any effort【C14】his part.
    Television, it is often said, keeps one【C15】about current events, allows one to【C16】the latest developments in science and politics, and offers an endless【C17】of programs which are both instructive and【C18】. The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one’s sitting room.【C19】here again there is a danger. We get so used to looking at it, so dependent on its sparkling pictures, that it begins to【C20】our lives.
【C10】
选项 A、modern
B、last
C、latter
D、latest
答案D
解析 语义衔接题。电视中播放的一般是最新的足球赛事，所以选D)latest“最新的，最近的”。A)modern“现代的”，句中不存在古代足球和现代足球这样的语境，且放在句中修饰match的形容词顺序也不对。B)last“最后的”，放在句中只能特指上一场球赛，与films和political discussions这样表示节目内容总称的范畴不一致，不能构成合理的并列关系。C)latter表示比较，意为“后面的，后来的”，特指某一场球赛，故不选。
