W: Good evening, Mr. Brown, and welcome to the program.
M: Thank you!
W: I wonder if you could tell the listeners more about the work you do.
M: Certainly.
W: Mr. Brown, I gather that you work for a company developing software for reading electronic books?
M: That is so.
W: Do you think there is much future in that?
M: Well, people buy music online ― so why not books?
W: You have to read electronic books on a machine, don’t you?
M: That is so, although of course you might be able to print them out on a printer.
W: So why should people read a book on an expensive machine, when they can buy a cheap copy and carry it around with them and read it whenever they like?
M: That is an interesting point. People need time to become aware of the value of e-books.
W: Is it true that at the Frankfurt Book Fair, in 2000, there was a prize for the best books published in electronic form?
M: Yes, that is true. The prize was worth $100 000.
W: Who put up the money for the prize?
M: Err, software companies such as Microsoft and Adobe.
W: I suppose they are trying to encourage publishers to get the e-book business off the ground.
M: That’s probably true.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Where is the conversation taking place?
20. What is Mr. Brown’s attitude to electronic books?
21. What is the woman’s attitude to electronic books?
22. Why did the software companies put up the money for the prize?
选项
A、He thinks people are more likely to buy music than books.
B、He believes that there is a demand for books on music.
C、He thinks that there isn’t much future for e-books.
D、He thinks that there is a good chance that the business will develop.
答案
D
解析
细节题。浏览选项可知,题目考查的内容与人物“he”的态度有关。对话中,对于女士就电子图书前景的询问,男士用一个反问句来回答,他说people buy music online—so why not books?(既然人们现在从网上购买音乐,那么为何不会购买图书呢?)言下之意:电子书有发展前景,故D正确。
