The author, Michael Dertouzos, stands (1)_____ from many of the forecasters and commentators who bombard us daily with (2)_____ of this future. For twenty years he has led one of the world’s (3)_____ research laboratories, whose members have brought the world (4)_____ computers, the Ether Net, and start-up companies.

That’s a (7)_____ description of the Internet as we know it today.
Naturally, we do not agree on all the (8)_____ ways the new world will (9)_____ or affect us. This is as it should be. There is plenty of room for (10)_____ ideas and debate concerning the rich and promising setting ahead. What’s more important is that people become (11)_____, and form their own opinions, about the changes (12)_____.

选项
A、informed
B、acquainted
C、confined
D、reassured
答案
A
解析
informed"了解情况的,见闻广的"。该词在概念上与上文中的"information"形成关联。该题最大的干扰项为选项acquainted,该选项可形成搭配"become acquainted with"意为"开始认识,开始了解",但题干中没有"with",故应排除。而选项confined"有限的,狭窄的"和reassured"安心的,可靠的"填入后均不符合文意。
