The book is dead. Technology has killed it. The libraries of
the world are dooming to become museums. Americans, however,【M1】______
attend to bring an either-or mentality to most things. The invention【M2】______
of television led to predictions about the demise of radio. The
making of movies was to be the funeral bell of alive theater;【M3】______
recorded music, the end of concerts. All these forms still
exist—sometimes overshadowed by their siblings, but not
smothered by them. And with the direst predictions, reading【M4】______
continues to be part of the life of the mind.
There’s no question that reading off-paper, as I think of it,
will increase in years to come. A library that got 10 as gifts【M5】______
reported that within a half hour they had all checked out. And【M6】______
there’s no question that once again we will be treated to
lamentations suggesting that true literacy has become the lost art.
The difference this time is that we will confront with elitism from【M7】______
both sides. Not only have literary purists now complain of the【M8】______
evanescent nature of letters onscreen, the tech fanatics have
become equally disdainful of the old form.
Perhaps we should look past both sides to concern ourselves
with function instead of form. I am cheered by the Gallup poll in【M9】______
which asks a simple question: do you happen to be reading any
books or novels at present? In 1952 a merely 18 percent of【M10】______
respondents said yes. The last time the survey was done, in 2005,
that number was 47 percent. So much for the good old days.
【M10】
选项
答案
merely一mere
解析
语法错误. merely是副词表示“仅仅”.此处放在不定冠词a之后用来修饰名词性短语18 percent,因此要改为形容词mere。
