For decades the market for expensive headphones was mainly limited to hi-fi fans. But【C1】________the boxy stereo system in the corner of the bedroom is largely a thing of the past, and young music fans listen【C2】________on portable devices, headphones have become as much of a fashion statement as the music player itself.【C3】________the first to spot the potential of this market was Dr Dre and Jimmy Iovine. In 2008 they【C4】________their Beats range of headphones, to great【C5】________. They have all but created a new product【C6】________: premium-priced headphones whose sound quality is good enough,【C7】________which mainly sell on their brand image.
Beats Electronics and its founders have proved skilled【C8】________using celebrity endorsements and product placement to【C9】________his headphones. In America the company now has almost half the market for premium-priced headphones, compared with 21% for Bose, a longer-established maker. Beats headphones are exactly what hip-hop fans want, but might not suit opera lovers. Overall,【C10】________, they are a lot better than the earphones that come free with most portable devices.
There is in any case a limit to how good music will sound through even the best headphones. Most of the music tracks on portable music players are in the form of mp3 audio files, in which the music has been【C11】________to make the files smaller and【C12】________fit more of them into a【C13】________amount of storage capacity.
Since consumers have been persuaded, largely by Beats, that it is worth paying a high price for headphones, perhaps they could be persuaded to turn their backs on cheap mp3s and【C14】________recordings in true high fidelity.
If sales of hi-fi recordings take off it may【C15】________the market for really top-class headphones like those of Grado Labs, another American firm. Grado has for decades relied on reviews in specialist magazines, and word-of-mouth【C16】________from fans, to spread news of its headphones’【C17】________reproduction. In contrast to Beats, it has avoided image making it has not【C18】________since 1964 Unlike Dr Dre, then, its【C19】________are less tied to the【C20】________tastes and fast-changing fashions of the young.
【C1】
选项
A、now that
B、as long as
C、for fear that
D、except that
答案
A
解析
首句的时态表明高端耳机市场主要局限于高保真音响爱好者已经是过去的事实。如今的情况是耳机跟音乐播放器一样成了时尚代言人。导致这一转变的原因就是箱式立体音响系统已经过时了,年轻的音乐发烧友用便携式设备听音乐。因此,所需词应连接空格后分句表示原因,故A项now that“既然;由于”正确。B项as long as“只要”通常表示的是实现某一结果的条件,体现的逻辑与本句不一致。C项for fear that“生怕,唯恐”一般引导目的状语从句。D项except that“除了”无法表明空格后分句是主句发生的原因。
