问题 The next time you try for a high-ranking post,you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending(推荐)phone call "made" by US President George W．Bush or British Prime Minister Tony Blair． Of course ,neither of them could really do that for you--you would just "borrow" their voices． AT & T labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds of a hmnan voice that it can recreate voices and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life． The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person' s voice to say things that the person never actually said． Possible customers for the software, which is priced in the thousands of dollars, includes telephone call centers, companies that make software that reads digital (数字的)flies aloud, and makers of automated voice devices(装量)．The advances raise several problems．Who ,for example, owns the rights to a famous person's voice? Some experts even believe that new contracts(合同) will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses． And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud (假冒), would the synthesized (合成的)voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know? Even Mr．Fruchterman,one of AT & T labs' possible first customers,said he wondered what the new technology might bring．"Just like you can't trust a photograph any more．" he said,"you won't be able to trust a voice either．" According to the passage, you can infer that_______．A.the software will turn out to be an immediate success in the marketB.the government will forbid the sale of the software in the marketC.it' s hard to decide whether the software will enjoy popularityD.the software will soon prove to be nothing but rubbish

选项 A.the software will turn out to be an immediate success in the market
B.the government will forbid the sale of the software in the market
C.it' s hard to decide whether the software will enjoy popularity
D.the software will soon prove to be nothing but rubbish

答案 C

解析推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到，有可能第一个购买这种软件的客户对它带来的影响还不敢确定，所以我们可以推论出，这种软件的市场前景还是未知数。
