　　It is hardly necessary for me to cite all the evidenceof the depressing state of literacy. These figuresfrom the Department of Education are sufficient: 27million Americans cannot read at all. and a further35million read al a level that is less than sufficient tosurvive in our society.

　　But my own worry today is fess that of the overwhelming problem of elemental literacy thanit is of the slightly more luxurious problem of the decline in the skill even of the middle-classreader, of his unwillingness to afford those spaces of silence. those luxuries of domesticityand time and concentration, that surround the image of the classic act of reading. n has beensuggested that almost 80 percent of America's literate, educated teenagers can no longer readwithout an accompanying noise (music) in the background or a television screen flickering (闪烁)at the corner of their field of perception. We know very little about the brain and how it dealswith simultaneous conflicting input, but every common-sense intuition suggests we should beprofoundly alarmed. This violation of concentration} silence, solitude (独处的状态) goestothe very heart of our notion of literacy; this new form of part-reading, of part-perceptionagainst background distraction renders impossible certain essential acts of apprehensionand concentration, let alone that most important tribute any human being can pay to a poemor a piece of prose he or she really loves, which is to learn it by heart. Not by brain. by heart;the expression is vital.

　　Under these circumstances. the question of what future there is for the arts of reading is a realone. Ahead of us lie technical. psychic(心理的). and social transformations probably much moredramatic than thosebrought about by Gutenberg, the German inventor in printing. TheGutenberg revolution. as we now know it, took a long time; its effects are still being debated.The information revolution will touch every fact ofcomposition. publication. distribution. andreading. No one in the book industry can say with any confidence what will

　　happen to the book as we've known it.

　　C) 令人印象深刻

　　D)非常具有鼓舞性

　　[A]根据文章第1段第1句“我无需举例说明那种令人沮丧的受教育状况”。句中depressing的意思与bleak相近，由此可推断作者描绘的这幅画面是相当黯淡的。

　　C) 美国人阅读的时候需要有背景音乐

　　D) 中产阶级的阅读能力和阅读行为

　　A) 能够理解并记得住

　　B) 分析其最根本的特点

　　C) 有意识地深刻理解它

　　D) 对其艺术价值作出公平的评价

　　[A]根据文章第2段倒数第二句“更不用说将散文或诗歌，不是用脑。而是用心背下来，这是人们欣赏他们所喜欢的诗歌或散文的最好的方式”，因此A与作者所表述的观点一致，因而正确。

　　5.对于阅读艺术的未来，作者感到__________。

　　A) 沮丧

　　B) 不确定

　　C) 警觉

　　D) 悲观

　　[B]在第3段第1句，作者写道“在这种情况下，阅读艺术的将来确实是一个真正的大问题”，在最后一句。作者又提到“图书界没有人能充满信心地预言到底会发生什么情况”，因此可推断，作者对阅读艺术的将来感到难以把握。故B与文章所陈述的观点一致
