Nowadays, amateur photography has become a troubling issue. Citizens of rich countries have got used to being watched by closed-circuit cameras that【C1】________roads and cities. But as cameras【C2】________and the cost of storing data decreases rapidly, it is individuals who are taking the pictures.
Some 10,000 people are already testing a【C3】________of Google Glass. It aims to reproduce all the functions of a smartphone in a device placed on a person’s nose. Its flexible frame holds both a camera and a【C4】________screen, and makes it easy for users to take photos, send【C5】________and search for things online.
Glass may fail, but a wider revolution is under way. In Russia, where insurance【C6】________is common, at least 1 million cars already have cameras with them that film the road ahead. Police forces in America are starting to【C7】________officers with video cameras, pinned to their uniforms, which record their interactions with the public.
Widespread recording can already do a lot of good. Car-cams can help resolve insurance claims and encourage people to drive better. Police-cams can discourage criminals from making groundless complaints【C8】________police officers and officers from【C9】________the suspects.
Optimists see broader benefits【C10】________. Plenty of people carry activity trackers to【C11】________their exercise or sleep patterns; cameras could do the job more effectively, perhaps also【C12】________their wearers’ diets. "Personal black boxes" might be able to transmit pictures【C13】________their owner falls victim to an accident or crime.
Not everybody will be【C14】________by these prospects. A perfect digital memory would probably be a pain, preserving unhappy events as well as【C15】________ones Suspicious spouses and employers might feel【C16】________review it.
The bigger worry is for those in front of the cameras, not【C17】________them. The web is filled with sneaky photos of women,【C18】________in public places. Wearable cameras will make such furtive photography easier. The combination of cameras everywhere—in bars, on streets, in offices, on people’s heads—is a powerful and【C19】________one. We may not be far from a world【C20】________which your movements could be tracked all the time.
【C19】
选项
A、exciting
B、striking
C、promising
D、alarming
答案
D
解析
下句提到一举一动可能随时被掌握(your movements could be tracked au the time),这给人带来的感受应是不好的。D项alarming意为“令人惊恐的”,符合语义逻辑。A项exciting、B项striking和C项promising分别表示“令人兴奋的”、“显著的”和“有希望的”,均不能体现人们对一举一动被监视的恐惧。
