A 【解析】 本文为应用文。随着网络技术的发展,传统的电视将有可能退出历史的舞台吗?。 1.考查介词。work as 为一个短语,意思为“担任……”。这里指的是温特·瑟夫曾担任过美国的一名研究人员。故选A。 2.考查动词辨析。根据第一段可知,传统的电视时代即将结束。因此,这里应该是说电视正走向“iPod”时代。通过对四个词语的辨析(achieving取得,获得;approaching走近,靠近; finishing完成; arriving到达)可知,答案为approaching,故选B项。 3.考查动词辨析。write 写; download下载;read 读; remember记得。通读全文以及对“iPod”为大容量MP3播放器的理解可知,人们把他们喜欢的音乐下载到他们的“iPod”里面。故B正确. 4.考查介词辨析。由对上句now download their favorite music onto their iPod,的理解可知, downloading most of favorite programs ___4___their computers. 这里应为“onto”,即把体现了前后一致。 即观众很快就会把大多数他们喜爱的节目下载到他们的电脑上。故选D项。 5.考查形容词。live现场直播的;present目前的,在场的;past过去的;late迟的,晚的。通过后面的like news, sporting events and emergencies可知,这里应该是“现场直播”的意思。而live有“现场直播的”意思,故A符合题意。 6.考查副词。通过对全文的理解以及对it is going to be almost like the iPod的理解可知,“尽管人们仍需要新闻、体育比赛和紧急事件等的现场直播,但‘iPod模式’将日益兴起”。而greatly“很,非常”;harmfully“有害地”;hopefully“有希望地”,均不符合题意,只有C项increasingly“日益”才符合题意,故选C项。 7.考查动词辨析。watch观看,看; look有意识地看;notice注意; see看见,看到。watch“观看,看”之意,相当于look at。通过对词句的理解可知,下载是为了以后观看,而空后的at这个词也给了暗示。故选B项。 8.考查名词作定语。mainstream主流的; famous 著名的; important 重要的; well-known知名的,出名的。Mainstream(主流的)符合本句“尽管电视的需求已经不再是英国的主流活动”。其他选项不符合题意。故选A. 9.考查固定词组。sums of表示“许多”之意。由后面的单词“money”可知,前面应用修饰不可数名词的短语。故选A项。 10.考查固定搭配。句意:英国广播公司、国际电视台和第四频道在技术上都投入了大量资金,使观众能够观看他们最喜欢的节目。enable sb.to do sth为固定搭配,意为“使某人能够做某事”。分析可知选C项。 11.考查介词辨析。根据句意可知,是在电脑上看人们喜欢的节目。因此选C项。 12.考查动词。containing 包含,包纳;including包括(部分与整体);naming命名;calling叫,认为,通电话。依据本段可知,不光是评论家提出了警告,而且也包括一些互联网服务提供商。由此可知答案为including;A项contain为“包含,包纳”,侧重容器的装下或成分上的含有,不符合题意;而C、D两项不符合文意,故B项正确。 13.考查固定搭配。under the stress of为 “在……压力下”。此句意思为“在几百万人同一时间下载节目的压力下”,所以只有D项符合题意。 14.考查动词辨析。句意:但是瑟夫先生驳斥了这些警告,说批评家早在20年前就预言,当全世界的人们开始大量使用网络时,网络将会崩溃。collapse崩溃”;fall 下落,摔倒; rush 突袭,猛冲;jump跳过, 快速移动。由本段的上一句可知,这里应为“collapse”,即“崩溃”。故选A项。 15.考查动词辨析。develop“发展”; increase“增加,增长,增大(数目、数量、体积等)”; enhance“提高,提升”;常用于身份、声望等;enlarge“变大,扩大”。 由a million times可知,这里应为“增长了多少倍”,分析选项可知B项符合题意,故选B项。 16.考查短语辨析。close to靠近,接近; far from远离,远非,不是; far away离…远;next to接近,在…近旁。通过对上文以及本句的理解可知,我们远没用尽这些容量。因此答案为B项。 17.考查形容词辨析。understandable意思为“可理解的”;miserable为“可怜的,不愉快的”;surprising为“令人惊奇的”;imaginable为“可想像的”。由when they see huge amounts of information being moved around online在过去的30年里,它已经增长了一百万倍……我们远远没有耗尽容量,”他说。“当他们看到大量的信息在网络上流动时,这种担心是可以理解的。”分析选项可知,这里选understandable比较符合文意。故选C项。 18.考查动词短语辨析。set out“陈述,展示,宣布”;take out“切除,拔出”;find out“找出,查明”;turn out“结果是。证明是,最终是”。句意:他展示了他对互联网未来的憧憬,…。通过his vision for the future of the Internet理解,可知为setting out。故选D项。 19.考查固定搭配。句意:展示了自己对互联网未来的憧憬,他希望能尽可能多地接触互联网。根据句意可知为“尽可能多的人”,people为可数名词的复数形式,因此要用many,故选A。 20.考查固定搭配。句意:我希望地球上的每个人都能够连接到互联网, be able to do sth.是固定搭配,为“有能力做……”,其他三项(easy容易的;happy快乐的,高兴的;willing愿意的)不符合文意,故选A项。
