[23] South Africa is the richest country in Africa; it is also one of the most modern and technologically advanced. It has some of the best rail, road and communication systems in Africa Yet more than two-thirds of South African adults have never used the Internet.
The South African Network Society recently reported that only 34% of South African adults use the Internet That is about 12 million people.
Three-quarters of the country’s Internet users live in cities. Most of them use cell phones to get on the Internet The rest go to Internet cafes or use the Internet at school or work.
Indra de Lanerolle is with the South African Network Society. He says there are many reasons why so few South Africans use the Internet Cost is one of them.
"We do have expensive costs and cost is a big limitation to Internet use. It stops some people from using the Internet at all, and the other thing is it stops people from using it very much. So unless we can do much better than 1 in 3 connected, increasingly that’s going to be a real disadvantage for the country."
[24] Poor Internet connectivity in rural South Africa and the high prices of Internet-ready mobile phones have also kept the poor disconnected. Most schools and work places in rural South Africa, where the majority of the country’s people live, have no Internet connection.
And many areas of the country do not have Internet cafes. Sam Gina lives in Johannesburg; he has never been on the Internet.
"At home I don’t have it Laptop is too expensive for me. Now I am using a phone that doesn’t have Internet."
Wilson Ayong is a Cameroonian citizen who operates an Internet cafe in Johannesburg. He says the prices at Internet cafes are too high for many South Africans.
[25] South African Network Society’s Mr. de Lanerolle says Internet access in the country is improving. He says a new generation of Internet users from the country’s middle class is quickly entering an area once reserved for the rich.
His belief is supported by reports that show Internet usage and access in South Africa has increased by more than 100% in the last five years.
23. What do we know about South Africa?
24. What keeps the poor people in South Africa from using the Internet?
25. What will be the future development of Internet use in South Africa?
选项
A、Internet connectivity will be guaranteed.
B、The rich will have access to the Internet.
C、A new generation of Internet will become rich.
D、Middle-class Internet users will increase.
答案
D
解析
选项都使用将来时,预测问题可能与某事物的未来发展有关系。题目问在南非网络使用未来会有什么发展。关于南非网络使用方面的发展,录音末尾处提到一批中产阶级的新生代正快速成为网络使用者,D项 “中产阶级网络使用者增加”是该处录音内容的同义转述,为正确答案。录音说南非的网络接入率正在改善,并非说网络连接会得到保证(guaranteed),故A项错。富人本来就是网络使用者(once reserved for the rich),故B项“富人将会有途径使用网络”不对。录音说中产阶级新生代会像富人一样拥有网络,而不是说新的网络一代会变成富人,C项错误。
