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、She seems rather sympathetic.
B、She appears rude.
C、She seems to be a little doubtful.
D、She appears to find them very interesting.
答案
C
解析
细节题。浏览选项可知,该题考查女士“she”的态度。考查女士对电子书的态度,录音中女士说话的语气和语调是推断的重要依据。女士用了一个Why should…when…结构指出,当人们能买到便宜并且可携带的书并进行随心所欲的阅读时,怎么会到昂贵的机器上读书呢?显然女士对电子书的前景持怀疑态度,故C正确。
