问题     Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened【C1】______As was discussed before, it was not【C2】______the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-e-lectronic【C3】______, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the【C4】______of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution【C5】______up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading【C6】______through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures【C7】______the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in【C8】______It is important to do so.
    It is generally recognized,【C9】______, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century,【C10】______by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process,【C11】______its impact on the media was not immediately【C12】______As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became "personal" too, as well as【C13】______, with display becoming sharper and storage【C14】______increasing.

    It was within the computer age that the term "information society "began to be widely used to describe the【C17】______within which we now live. The communications revolution has【C18】______both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been【C19】______views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. " Benefits" have been weighed【C20】______"harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult. [br] 【C19】
选项 A、competitive
B、controversial
C、distracting
D、irrational
答案 B
解析 本题要求判断哪个形容词可与view搭配，并符合文意。首先排除distracting，它不能和view搭配。其次，从转折连词but可知空格所在部分there have been 109 ，view表示的意思和前文相反。前文指出通信革命影响了我们工作、休闲及思考和感知的方式，空格所在句子指出：但是关于其在经济、政治、社会和文化上的含义的看法却……。此外，从下文中的benefits和harmful的对比以及最后一句的And generalizations have proveddifficult(现在形成统一的看法还有困难)也可以知道，人们对这个通信革命影响的看法是褒贬不一的，因此，该看法是有争议的(controversial)，而不是竞争的(competitive)或不合理的。
