Electronic books could revolutionize reading, but people ought to consider their far-reaching. "The e-book promises to wreak a slow havoc on life as we know it," Jason Ohler, professor of technology assessment, University of Alaska Southeast in Juneau, warned the World Future Society, Bethesda, Md. His assessment weighed the pros and cons of e-book technology’s impact on social relationships, the environment, the economy, etc. Before you curl up with an e-book, consider the disadvantages.
They increase eyestrain due to poor screen resolution, replace a relatively cheap commodity with a more expensive one, and displace workers in print book production and traditional publishing. E-books make it easy to share data, thereby threatening copyright agreements and reducing compensation of authors, as well as creating nonbiodegradable trash. On the other hand, e-books save paper and trees, reduce the burden of the carrying and storing of printed books, promote self-sufficiency in learning, and make reading a collaborative experience online. They also create new jobs for writers and artists and encourage self-publishing. In final analysis, Ohler points out, e-books should gain society’s approval if a few conditions are met: make them biodegradable and recyclable, solve the problem of eye fatigue, be sure the "have-nots" get the technology, and support e-book training in schools and business.
What does Ohler suggest regarding the use of e-books? ______
选项
A、The society should ensure the poor have access to the technology
B、The society should ban the use of e-books if they cannot reduce eye fatigue
C、The society should approve of the use of e-books if they are made recyclable
D、The schools should solve the present problems of e-books
答案
A
解析
文章第三段提出使用电子书籍需要满足的条件,其中之一“be sure the have-nots get thetechnology”的意思是穷人也获得这种技术。B项原文并没有说要禁止使用电子书籍。C项只提到一点,不全面。故选A。
