Sometime in next century, the familiar early-morning newspaper on the front door will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer file if you like. These are among the predictions from communications experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis video images of news events.
Most of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism (新闻界). Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of jounalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.
Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry. [br] We can infer from the passage that ______.
选项
A、all technolgical changes are good
B、all technologies will eventually replace old ones
C、new technologies will eventually replace old ones
D、traditional newspapers are here to stay for another century
答案
C
解析
第二段最后一句说“技术将不可避免地使传统报纸消亡”。其意正是C)new technology will eventually replace old ones。A是错的,因为文章并未对技术转变做评价。B的内容也与文章意思不符,句中的all technologies显然用得不对。D与文章最后一句不符,文中说“要完成转变可能需要三、四十年的时间”,而不是another century。
