Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.
Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionised the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.
No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channelled into millions of homes.
Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing, educating and entertaining.
Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the vast modern network of commu-nications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back. [br] In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _____ of face-to-face contact in social settings.

解析
本文第1段介绍了在日常生活中的许多场合人们都有可能发生面对面的交流,在这些场合中人们通过交谈发出信息或提出观点。听到新闻或评论,而且自己的观点还有可能受到别人的质疑,这些都表明了面对面交流的用途。因此C正确。A不对,面对面交流的本质应当涉及这种交流方式的特点,以及与别的交流方式的不同之处.而本文第1段并没有谈到这些方面的内容。
