Television has transformed politics in the United States by changing the way in which information is disseminated, by altering political campaigns, and by changing citizens’ patterns of response to politics. By giving citizens independent access to the candidates, television diminished the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates. By centering politics on the person of the candidate, television accelerated the citizen’s focus on character rather than issues.
Television has altered the forms of political communication as well. The messages on which most of us rely are briefer than they once were. The stump speech, a political speech given by traveling politicians and lasting up to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has
given way to
the 30-second advertisement and the 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news. Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the viewing audience who will hear and see a snippet of the speech on the news.
In these abbreviated forms, much of what constituted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost. In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker cannot establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others. In snippets, politicians assert but do not argue.
Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it require a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old-style stump speech. Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words. Schools teach us to analyze words and print. However, in a world in which politics is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills.
Recognizing the power of television’s pictures, politicians craft televisual, staged events, called pseudo-event, designed to attract media coverage. Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians, their speechwriters, and their public relations advisers for televised consumption.
Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements
.
What is the main reason why the author says "sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements" ?
选项
A、Because they are made professionally.
B、Because they show the best qualities of the candidates.
C、Because they are crafted and designed to attract public attention.
D、Because they are as short and attractive as advertisements.
答案
C
解析
细节题。根据最后一段中的“Much of the political activity we see on television news has been crafted by politicians,their speechwriters,and their public relations advisers for televised consumption”可知,这些电视新闻中的政治活动是由一些政客、演讲稿撰稿人、公共关系顾问精心设计的,其目的就是吸引大众产生电视消费,同广告的目的一致。故本题选C。
