Stories people have with reading are not new, but the trend is worsening. Recently, a record has shown that 10 percent of the freshmen at university could read no 【C1】_____ than the average eighth grader. As dismal a commentary as it is, there is a more chilling point 【C2】_____ it: of those college freshmen whose reading skills were 【C3】_____ to the eighth-grade level, many had 【C4】_____in the top half of their high-school classes.
A professor said that even after four years on campus, some college students could 【C5】_____read or write. The ramifications which bring to the nation are 【C6】_____, and will become more so in the years to 【C7】_____. Those ramifications are already being felt in the cultural marketplace. A first work of fiction, if it has any luck at all, will 【C8】_____ perhaps 3,000 copies. Publishers and authors know not to expect much better than that, 【C9】_____ a record album recently released has sold 3.5 million copies.
【C10】_____ the problem is that we live in a(n) 【C11】_____ age. To listen to a record album requires nothing of the cultural consumer, 【C12】_____his mere presence. To read a book, 【C13】_____, takes an act of will on the part of the consumer. He must 【C14】_____ want to find out what is 【C15】_____. He can’t just sit there, he must do something, even 【C16】_____the something is as simple an action as opening a book, closing the door and beginning to read. In the past, this was taken 【C17】_____ granted as an important part of life. But 【C18】_____, in the day of the "information 【C19】_____ system", such a reverence is not being placed on the reading, and then, 【C20】____of books.
【C13】
选项
A、also
B、so
C、even
D、though
答案
D
解析
考查语篇逻辑衔接词。分析上下文可知此处的To read a book是与上文To listen to a record album对比,表示两者的不同之处,应选表转折关系的连词,故选though。also表示并列关系;so表示因果关系;even表递进关系,均可排除。
