问题     Once in Britain, family members would all get annoyed at the phone call while watchingTV programs likeTheTwo Ronnies.This does not often happen now—we are either twice as smart or twice as inattentive as we used to be.
    Ofcom’s research demonstrates that the British have become a nation of media junkies(成瘾者). Now they spend more time on the Internet and do much net visiting while watching television. It is unlikely that the whole family will be in the living room these days—unless Doctor Who is on.
    Ofcom’s data show that despite all the distractions(分心) offered by the internet,which were supposed to threaten the basis of television viewing, the British remain fixed to the small screen.
    The average time spent in front ofTV fixed at three hours and 38 minutes a day, only six minutes down from 2003. Radio listening has suffered a little more in that time, but every person still spends a further 2 hours and 44 minutes a day with the radio on in the background.
    What has changed is that traditional media no longer occupy all attention for those under 45.
    About a third of 16 to 44-year-olds admit to using their computer while watching television. Well over half of them will pick up the mobile when watching East Enders.
    It is a change in habits making us worry about the change of tradition — but in reality it is a natural response to the increasing media. [br] According to the passage, people used to _____.
选项 A、be less smart than they are now
B、sit down and watchTV with their family
C、pay less attention to whatever they did
D、be reluctant to make telephone calls
答案 B
