Look at your smartphone. Think about the decisions you will make on it today. You may snatch a dinner【C1】________, tell your spouse you’re running late, or【C2】________a response to an email from your boss. But you might also decide that the light【C3】________the trees is worth an Instagram. You may write something on Facebook about the【C4】________of seeing your 5-year-old make a new friend at the park, or the frustration of watching your father get old and need to move into a home. You may choose a song on Spotify,【C5】________a movie on Netflix, or open a Kindle book. You may decide how to【C6】________a photo to send to a friend or lover.
It’s easy to think of our【C7】________revolutions as purely technological achievements.【C8】________microprocessors let everyone have a PC at home. Internet allowed computers to talk to each other. But that doesn’t【C9】________the reasons these breakthroughs mattered so much to us.
At their core, these were also creative revolutions. The PC didn’t truly touch us【C10】________the rise of desktop publishing, followed by the rise of multimedia development tools, followed by the rise of web development tools. Its emotional power arrived with the ability to create amazing things on it.【C11】________, the Internet revolution really took off when we used it not just to download facts and figures but as a【C12】________to share music, writing, movies, and pictures. The number one site on the web may be Google,【C13】________number two and three are Facebook and YouTube,【C14】________—both primarily outlets for personal【C15】________. We created the desktop computer and the Internet as tools for efficiency, productivity, and communication. But they came to have real meaning for us【C16】________our natural creative drive took them over.
Now it’s the phone’s turn. The smartphone began with a promise of productivity. Smartphones let us send messages【C17】________launching a computer; that’s what made them【C18】________. The smartphone, like the PC and the Internet before it, has【C19】________a unique outlet for our creative impulses, and it will【C20】________our creative lives even more fundamentally.
【C10】
选项
A、until
B、despite
C、since
D、through
答案
A
解析
下句意为“当人们能用电脑做出各种奇妙之举时,它也拥有了令人激动的能力”,可判断用电脑做出各种奇妙之举是归因于桌面出版(desktop publishing)等的兴起和繁荣。A项until与didn’t搭配,指直到桌面出版、多媒体开发工具、网络开发工具兴起后,电脑才触动我们的生活,符合句子逻辑要求。B项despite、C项since和D项through代入后分别表示“尽管”、“自从”、“通过”桌面出版等繁荣起来,个人电脑并未真正触动我们。三者语义和逻辑都不通。
