Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much has happened【C1】______. As was discussed before , it was not【C2】______the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic【C3】______, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the【C4】______of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution【C5】______up, beginning with transport, the railways and leading【C6】______through the telegraph, the telephone, radio and motion pictures【C7】______the 20th century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in【C8】______. It is important to do so.
It is generally recognized,【C9】______, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century,【C10】______by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process,【C11】______its impact on the media was not immediately【C12】______. As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became personal too, as well as【C13】______, with display becoming sharper and storage【C14】______increasing. They were thought of, like people, 【C15】______generations, with the distance between generations much【C16】______.
It was within the computer age that the term information society began to be widely used to describe the【C17】______within which we now live. The communications revolution has【C18】______both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been【C19】______views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. Benefits have been weighed【C20】______harmful outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.
【C19】
选项
A、competitive
B、controversial
C、distracting
D、irrational
答案
B
解析
由“but”可以推断后半句是承前转折,前半句说“通讯革命不仅影响了我们的工作和休闲,还影响到我们的时空观”,但即使如此,“人们对其在经济、政治、社会和文化上的影响仍然持…的观点”。competitive指“竞争性的”;distracting指“令人分神的”;irrational则指“非理智的”;只有controversial“有争议的”符合上下文句意,即在此问题上人们各持己见,说法不一。
