The modern comic strip started out as ammunition in a newspaper war between giants of the American press in the late nineteenth century. The first fullcolor comic strip appeared in January 1894 in the New York World, owned by Joseph Pulitzer. The first regular weekly fullcolor comic supplement, similar to today’s Sunday funnies, appeared two years later, in William Randolph Hearst’s rival New York paper, the Morning Journal.
Both were immensely popular, and publishers realized that supplementing the news with comic relief boosted the sale of papers. The Morning Journal started another feature in 1896, the "Yellow Kid", the first continuous comic character in the United States, whose creator, Richard Outcault, had been lured away from the World by the ambitious Hearst. The "Yellow Kid" was in many ways a pioneer. Its comic dialogue was the strictly urban farce (笑话) that came to characterize later strips, and it introduced the speech balloon inside the strip, usually placed above the characters’ heads.
The first strip to incorporate all the elements of later comics was Rudolph Dirks’s" Katzenjammer Kids", based on Wilhelm Busch’s Max and Moritz, a European satire of the nineteenth century. The "Kids" strip, first published in 1897, served as the prototype for future American strips. It contained not only speech balloons, but a continuous cast of characters, and was divided into small regular panels that did away with the larger panoramic(全貌的) scenes of moat earlier comics.
Newspaper syndication (联合组织) played a major role in spreading the popularity of comic strips throughout the country. Though weekly colored comics came first, daily blackandwhite strips were not far behind. The first appeared in the Chicago American in 1904. It was followed by many imitators, and by 1915 blackandwhite comic strips had become a staple of daily newspapers around the country.
According to the passage, the "Yellow Kid" was the first comic strip to do all of the following EXCEPT ______.
选项
A、feature the same character in each episode
B、include dialogue inside a balloon
C、appear in a Chicago newspaper
D、characterize city life in a humorous way
答案
C
解析
细节判断题。注意题目用了“EXCEPT”一词。详细阅读文章“The Morning Journal started another feature in 1896,the ’Yellow Kid’, the first continuous comic character in the United States”,从中可判断选项A)对《黄孩子》的描述是正确的,所以选项A)被排除。我们再看接下来的一句“The ’Yellow Kid’ was in many ways a pioneer. Its comic dialogue was the strictly urban farce that came to characterize later strips, and it introduced the speech balloon inside the strip, usually placed above the characters’ heads”《黄孩子》在很多方面都是先锋。它的对话采用了地道的城市笑话,这也正是后来漫画的——大特征;它还在漫画里插进了写有人物对白的圆圈,这些圆圈通常放在角色的头顶上。从这里我们可以判断出选项B)和D)对《黄孩子》的描述也是正确的,所以这两个选项也可以被排除,那么本题的正确答案自然是选项C)。
