问题     Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened【C1】______. As was discussed before, it was not【C2】______the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant preelectronic【C3】______. following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the【C4】______of the periodical (期刊). It was during the same time that the communications revolution【C5】______up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading【C6】______through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures【C7】______the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in【C8】______. It is important to do so.
    It is generally recognized,【C9】______. that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century,【C10】______by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process,【C11】______its impact on the media was not immediately【C12】______. As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became "personal" too, as well as【C13】______. with display becoming sharper and storage【C14】______increasing. They were thought of, like people, in【C15】______of generations, with the distance between generations much【C16】______.
    It was within the computer age that the term "information society" began to be widely used to describe the【C17】______within which we now live. The communications revolution has【C18】______both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been【C19】______views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. "Benefits" have been weighed【C20】______"harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.
【C18】
选项 A、regarded
B、impressed
C、influenced
D、effected
答案C
解析 语义衔接题。注意空所在句的主语为“communications revolution”，宾语为work，leisure，howwe think and…，上文已经提到人们用“信息社会”来描述生活环境，很显然它对人类社会已产生了很大影响。[C]influenced意为“影响”，与语义相符，故为答案。[A]regarded意为“以为…”，主语一般为人而不能是communications revolution; [B]impressed意为“给…留下印象”，宾语一般为人而不能是work and leisure；[D]effected意为“使实施”，communications revolution与work and leisure无施动关系，故排除。
