The Rivalry of E-mail Industry
It looks like a great time for E-mail but a lousy time for E-mail applications. Web-based mail has been gaining ground for years, especially since Google revived the concept by launching Gmail five years ago.
These days, many home users never bother to download their E-mail, and the only threat Web mail Sites face comes from other sites: the closed confines of social networks. The most popular among them, Facebook, just gained its 200 millionth member, far more than any one Web-mail service.
In its favor, Web mail offers a simpler setup: You need to know only a user name and a password, without any mysterious mail-server addresses. Once your account is active, you can use it from any Web-connected computer, Web-based mail systems also make it easy to keep a permanent address regardless of your Internet provider. Doing the same with desktop E-mail usually requires paying extra money for a domain name and spending extra time on mail settings.
By contrast, desktop mail programs let you read and compose mail-without an Internet connection and don’t wrap advertisements around your mail. But their most important advantage is their separation of software and service. Because you can use more than one program with one mail service, you can choose an application with the features and interface you like. And because you can also use one mail program with more than one mail service, desktop applications make your mail itself portable; you can back up your messages and take them with you after closing an account.
If desktop mail software programmers had kept pace with Web mail developers, the two camps could have a fairly even fight.
Unfortunately, mail software developers can’t make Internet providers upgrade their mail services, and Interact providers can’t make mail-software developers modify their efforts. Unless that situation somehow changes, Web mail will continue to face few challenges outside of the social networks.
Which of the following is the disadvantage of e-mail applications?
选项
A、You need a large hard disk since the software requires you to download all the mails.
B、You need to spend much money in purchasing the e-mail applications.
C、You need to input the mail-service addresses along with your user name and password.
D、You need to keep your e-mail account active all the time.
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。由题干中的disadvantage of e—mail applications定位到第三段第一句。题干问电子邮件软件的不足之处,所以在原文中对网络邮件系统的称赞就间接地写出了电子邮件软件的不足。本句说“在使用网络电子邮件时,只需要用户名和密码,而不需要输入神秘的邮件服务地址”,换句话说,在使用邮件软件的时候,就需要进行输入。因此[C]“在输入用户名、密码之外,还需要录入邮件服务地址”为正确答案。文章没有说用软件下载邮件需要多大的空间,所以排除[A]“需要很大的硬盘空间”;关于购买邮件软件,文章也没有提到,故排除[B];[D]“需要时刻保持邮箱活跃”。也不是电子邮件软件的必要条件,故排除。
