    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

    　　With kings,artists and writers playing chess,you mightget the idea that chess is the most civilized game．But you'dbe wrong．

    　　A Scandinavian manuscript（手稿）,900 years old,tells ofhow one player,who lost a game,picked up the board and hithis opponent on the head with it．Boards were made of stone inthose days．

    　　Grandmasters have called it“a blood sport”,“like a fightto the death with broken bottles”and“very dangerous-you have to kill people．”

    　　If you agree with the old saying that life is too short for chess,play blitz chess．Five minutes on the clock．Non-play-ers think chess is slow and boring,but blitz is an extremely exciting sport．And as aggressive（进攻性的）as any martial art（武术）．In parks in Russia,where they gather in summer to play blitz,the players don't just take pieces,they knock them off the board onto the ground．And in the classic game,even world championship players have been known to kick each other under the table．

    　　With all this aggression,and the stories of nervous breakdowns among chess players,it's worth remembering that chess can heal as well as harm．My own favourite chess story is that of John Healy．His autobiography（自传）,The Grass Arena，was made into a great film by the BBC．Healy was a failed boxer who became the most serious kind of alcoholic（酒鬼）．He became homeless．The bottle nearly killed him．But in prison,he discovered chess,and managed to give up drinking completely．He is now a successful chess player,journalist and writer．

    　　Healy is played in the film by the British actor Mark Rylance．It's the performance of a lifetime-chess makes surpris-ingly good cinema．There is a moving scene where Healy tries to find the words to describe how his life has changed．“It's like boxing again…but not with fists…with the mind．”

    In the late 1500s, a large powerful gun was placed on top of the Signal Hill, in Newfoundland, to prevent attacks from the outside. Flags were also flown there to warn sailors of bad weather. It's fitting, then, the Italian Gulielmo Marconi should have chosen this site（场所） to receive the world's first radio signal - in Morse code - from England on December 12, 1901.

        Marconi, combining earlier ideas with his own, led us to a new communications age. For the next 50 years, until the appearance of television, radio ruled the air waves.

        Today, it's the TV that rules. No single person can say to have invented television.

        In 1884, the German Paul Nipkow invented a device (设备) that sent pictures mechanically (机械地), and in 1906, Boris Rosing, a Russian, used a ray and a disc to create the world's first TV system. Then in the early 1920s, another Russian, Vladimir Zworykin，invented a picture display tube. He took out a patent (专利) for color TV, even though it wouldn't be developed for another 25 years.

        In 1924, a Scot entered the scene - John Logie Baird. He first succeeded in sending a moving picture and a year later got the first actual TV picture. In 1926, Baird showed TV in a London laboratory. Two years later in New York, Felix the Cat became the first TV star.

    TV excited everyone's imagination, but hardly anyone had a set, with just two thousand in use worldwide in the mid-1930s.

    Since the late 1940s, TV technology has developed very quickly. Computers may finally be combined with all televisions to give people a total all-in-one communications network.

    Today, it's possible to sit and watch TV in the middle of a forest or in the Arctic. It's surpris-

    ing when one considers that Marconi was on Signal Hill in the same century.

    1．We can learn from the text that Signal Hill was once used as _________.

           A．a site of communication            

           B．a weather station

           C．a factory to produce weapons    

           D．a battle field to fight enemies from the outside

    2．When the writer says that today it is the TV that rules, he means that the TV _________.

        A．has led to a new communications age

        B．is a major means of today's communication

           C．is a device invented with ideas from Marconi

           D．has replaced the radio in today’s communication

    3．What is the main idea of Paragraphs 4 and 5?

           A．London is the pace where TV is invented.

           B．John Logie Baird was the chief inventor of television.

           C．A number of people contributed to the invention of television.

           D．Russian scientists played an important role in the invention of television.

    4．The writer believes that the day will come when        .

           A．the future computers will be able to do the work TV is now doing

           B．the future computers will become available to everyone in the world

           C．the future computers will be connected to create one international network

           D．the future computers will take the place of televisions and radios
