VI. Reading comprehension
A. Choose the best answer ?(6’)
London has a new magazine which you can receive on TV, because it is on paper.
If you want?to read this magazine,?you have to get?a decoder (解碼器). Each page of it?is numbered, so you only have to dial the number to choose which subject you want to read about. You can choose anything?you want, from?cooking to the latest sports news.
If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the?index (索引）page, which has an easy-to-remember page number, 100 for. Then you choose?what you want to read. The news is on pages?101 to 109, so when you push?the numbers you can see the?news written across your screen. Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, if?you press 181, and you can see a brightly colored weather map on the screen. Should you drive or take the train? To answer that question you only have to press 189 for the traffic report. It is very simple to use?and the best thing about the service is that it is being updated all the time. Whole pages of the magazine can be replaced in minutes.
London already has three services. One, transmitted(傳送）by TV, is called ORSCLE.?The other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX and ORACLE because they let you see facts. Though CEEFAX and ORACLE have been in use ?for some time, they have not been publicized(宣傳). BBC engineers don’t think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with a person?everywhere. However,?many people would agree that?this?is a breakthrough(突破) as great as the invention of printing, which could change?not just?our reading habits but our whole way of life.
