【题目】Television has turned 88 years old onSeptember 7, 2015, and it has never looked better. In its youth, television wasa piece of furniture with a tiny, round screen showing unclear pictures oflow-budget programs. In spite of its shortcomings, it became popular. Between1950 and 1963, the number of American families with a television jumped from 9%to 92% of the population.
As the audience got larger, thetechnology got better. Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s.The reception (接收效果)improved. The picture improved. The major networks started broadcastingprograms in color.
Even greater improvements were comingaccording to Sanford Brown, who wrote an article for the Post in 1967.Surprisingly, just about every prediction he made in the article became areality. For example: All sets in the not-distant future will be colorinstruments. He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller, simpler, morereliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work.Smaller sets do not, of course, mean smaller screens. TV engineers expectscreens to get much bigger. However, today’s 3-D TV is even farther away, ifit’s coming at all. There is some doubt whether the public would be eager topay for it, in view of people’s cold reception given to 3-D movies.
But the technology with the greatestpotential, according to Brown, was cable television (有线电视), whichwas still in its early stages then. As he predicted, the future of cabletelevision was highly interactive (互动的). It wasn’t cable television that gaveAmericans their electronic connection to the world, however. It was theInternet. He even foresaw the future office: using picture phones, big-screentelevisions for conferences, and computers providing information at the touchof a button.
Brown ever said, “The future oftelevision is no longer a question of what we can invent. It’s a question ofwhat we want.”
(1)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.
(2)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.
(3)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.
