问题      Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live 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 revolutionized 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 cine ma, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into million 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 enter raining.
     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 communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back. [br] From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is ______.

选项 A、indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media
B、happy about the drastic changes in the mass media
C、pessimistic about the future of the mass media
D、concerned about the wrong use of the mass media

答案 D

解析 最后一段说:虽然大众媒体交流的大量内容对个人、对社会都非常有价值,但是,大量的现在网络通信容易受到滥用,然而无论是好是环,其趋势都不可扭转。由此可见,作者对大众传媒的不正当使用表示关注。故选D。
