In early 1994, when Mark Andreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with an idea that would change the world. As a student at the University of Illinois, he and his friends had developed a program called Mosaic, which allowed people to share information on the world wide web. Before Mosaic, the web had been used mainly by scientists and other technical people, who were happy just to send and receive text. But with Mosaic, Andreessen and his friends had developed a program which could send images over the web as well. Mosaic was an overnight success. It was put on the university’s network at the beginning of 1993. And by the end of the year, it had over a million users. Soon after, Andreessen went to seek his fortune in Silicon Valley. Once he got there, he started to have meetings with a man called Jim Clark, who was one of the Valley’s most famous entrepreneurs. In 1994, nobody was making any real money from the Internet which was still very slow and hard to use. But Andreessen had seen an opportunity that would make him and Clark rich within two years. He suggested they should create a new computer program that would do the same job as Mosaic but would be much easier to use. Clark listened carefully to Andreessen, whose ideas and enthusiasm impressed him greatly. Eventually, Clark agreed to invest three million dollars of his own money in the project, and to raise an extra fifteen million from venture capitalists who were always keen to listen to Clark’s new ideas.
19. What do we learn about Mosaic?
20. What did Andreessen do upon arriving in Silicon Valley?
21. Why were venture capitalists willing to join in Clark’s investment?
选项
A、They had confidence in his new ideas.
B、They trusted his computer expertise.
C、They were very keen on new technology.
D、They believed in his business connections.
答案
A
解析
四个选项均以They开头,A)“他们对他的新想法充满信心”、B)“他们相信他的计算机专业知识”、C)“他们对新科技十分狂热”、D)“他们相信他的业务关系”都是在表述“他们”对于“他”的看法,听录音时首先要确定的是They和he分别指代的是什么人,才能正确判断他们之间的关联。短文最后一部分说,Clark不仅自己投了资,还为Andreessen找了风险投资家,他们之所以愿意为Andreessen投资,主要是因为他们热衷于Clark的新想法。
