In the early years of television, Vladimir Zworykin was considered its inventor, at least publicly. His loudest champion was his boss David Sarnoff, the president of RCA and the “father of television,” as he was and is widely regarded. Modern historians agree that Philo Farnsworth, a self-educated prodigy who was the first to transmit live images, was television's technical inventor. But Farnsworth's contributions have gone relatively unnoticed, since it was Sarnoff, not Farnsworth, who put televisions into living rooms and, even more importantly, who successfully borrowed from the radio industry the paradigm of advertiser-funded programming, a paradigm still dominant today. In contrast, Farnsworth lacked business sway and was unable to realize his dream of television as an educational tool.

Perhaps Sarnoff simply adapted his business ideas from other industries such as newspapers, for instance, replacing the revenue from subscriptions and newsstand purchases with that of television set sales, but Sarnoff promoted himself as a visionary. Some critics argue that Sarnoff’s construct has damaged programming content. Others contend that it merely created a democratic platform allowing audiences to choose the programming they desire.

1. The primary purpose of the passage is to

(A) correct public misconception about Farnsworth’s role in developing early television programs

(B) debate the influence of television on popular culture

(C) challenge the current public perception of Vladimir Zworykin

(D) chronicle the events that led from the development of radio to the invention of the television

(E) describe Sarnoff’s influence on the public perception of televisions inception, and debate the impact of Sarnoff’s paradigm

答案：E

虽然文章开始提及了几个人物都是与television有关，然而主角还是随后出现的Sarnoff的一系列贡献以及对他的一些评价等等，所以选E。

2. It can be inferred from the second paragraph of the passage that

(A) television shows produced by David Sarnoff and Vladimir Zworykin tended to earn negative reviews

(B) educational programs cannot draw as large an audience as sports programs

(C) a number of critics feel that Sarnoff’s initial decision to earn television revenue through advertising has had a positive or neutral impact on content

(D) educational programs that are aired in prime time, the hours during which the greatest number of viewers are watching television, are less likely to earn a profit than those that are aired during the daytime hours

(E) in matters of programming, the audiences preferences should be more influential than those of the advertisers

答案：C

着重看第二段，排除未提及的选项及错误部分，应选C。

GRE阅读生词问题如何解决?

GRE阅读考试文章很多来源于国外原版的期刊或杂志，话题覆盖面广，科技，自然，环保，社会，文化，工作，生物，地理等无不涉及，所以遇到生词在情理之中。但一部分考生遇到生词后就信心全失，慌乱至极，打破了自己原有的阅读节奏和速度，做题时也因为生词被卡壳，结果题目不仅没有解出，还影响了后面的做题速度和时间，可谓“一发动而迁全身”。对此，专家认为，生词的出现在所难免，只要大家有基本的词汇量，完全可以将生词的问题逐一击破。

A. 有时候生词属于比较专业的词汇，它们的出现不是为了考察考生的词汇量，更多的是检阅大家的应变和判断能力。尤其在题目中出现的所谓生词，更是可以坏事变好事，成为考生定位答案的线索词。

B. 有时候生词的含义可以在上下文中直接得到。在GRE阅读文章时遇到的生词，有相当一部分的含义可以通过多种猜测单词的方法得到，所以，在生词的周围或上下文寻找其解释不失为有效途径。
