问题    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 had happened 【S1】. As was discussed before, it was not 【S2】 the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic 【S3】, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the 【S4】 of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution 【S5】 up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading 【S6】 through  the  telegraph,  the telephone, radio, and motion pictures 【S7】 the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in 【S8】. It is important to do so.
   It is generally recognized, 【S9】, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, 【S10】 by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process, 【S11】its impact on the media was not immediately 【S12】. As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became "personal" too, as well as 【S13】, with display becoming sharper and storage 【S14】 increasing.  They  were  thought  of,  like people,  in 【S15】 of generations,  with the distance between generations much 【S16】.
   It was within the computer age that the term "information society" began to be widely used to describe the 【S17】 within which we now live. The communications revolution has 【S18】 both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been 【S19】 views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. "Benefits" have been weighed 【S20】 "harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.
选项 A、between
B、before
C、since
D、later
答案A
解析 逻辑衔接题。解答此题需要分析句子间的逻辑关系。第二句的句首词“Yet”表明了本句是对首句内容的转折。首句讲到20世纪电视的发展和15、16世纪印刷术的广泛传播。同时，第三句中的19世纪也确定了本题的答案为[A]between，指上述两个时间段中间的年代。本题的另一个答题线索是首句中出现的between，所填词是其的原词复现。这两句的意思为；人们曾把20世纪电视的发展与15、16世纪印刷术的传播进行过比较，然而在这两段时间之间还发生过许多事情。
