　第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。

　A Television has turned 88 years old on September 7,2021,and it has never looked better. In its youth,television was a piece of furniture with a tiny,round screen showing unclear pictures of low budget programs.In spite of its shortcomings,it became well-received.Between 1950 and 1963,the number of American families with a television jumped from 9% to 92% of the population. As the audience got larger,the technology got better.Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s.Both of the reception and the picture improved.The major networks started broadcasting programs in color. Even greater improvements were coming according to Sanford Brown,who wrote an article for thePost in 1967.Surprisingly,just about every prediction he made in the article became a reality.For

　 example:All sets in the not distant future will be color instruments.He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller,simpler,more reliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work.Smaller sets do not,of course,mean smaller screens.TV engineers expect screens to get much bigger.However,today’s 3D TV is even farther away,if it’s coming at all.There is some doubt whether the public would be eager to pay for it,in view of people’s cold reception given to 3D movies. But the technology with the greatest potential,according to Brown,was cable television (有线电视),which was still in its early stages then.As he predicted,the future of cable television was highly interactive.It wasn’t cable television that gave Americans their electronic connection to the world,however.It was the Internet.He even foresaw the future office:using picture phones,bigscreen televisions for conferences,and computers providing information,at the touch of a button. Brown ever said,“The future of television is no longer a question of what we can invent.It’s a question of what we want.” 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电视的发展历史。

　21.What can we infer about television sets in the 1960s?

　A.They were very popular with Americans. B.The reception showed no improvement. C.They showed black-and-white pictures. D.They were out of order now and then. 答案:A 解析:推理判断题。根据文章第二段第二句话可知,尽管早期的电视有一些缺点,但仍很受欢迎;在1950至 1963 年间美国家庭中拥有电视的人口从 9%上升到 92%。由第三段内容可排除 B、C、D三项。故选 A项。

　22.Which of the followings did Sanford Brown fail to predict? A.Television’s good quality. B.The invention of 3-D TV. C.The future office’s model D.The potential of cable TV. 答案:B 解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“However,today’s3DTVisevenfartheraway,ifit’scomingatall.”一句可知,SanfordBrown没有预测到 3D技术在电视上的运用。故 B 项符合要求。

　23.What is the text mainly about? A.The shortcomings of television. B.The bright future of television. C.The development of television. D.The invention of television. 答案:C 解析:主旨大意题。根据文章第一段内容就可以知道文章主要讲述的是电视的发展历史,故 C 项正确。
