　　Think of those fleeting moments when you look out of an aeroplane window and realise that you are flying, higher than a bird. Now think of your laptop, thinner than a brown-paper envelope, or your cellphone in the palm of your hand. Take a moment or two to wonder at those marvels. You are the lucky inheritor of a dream come true.

　　The second half of the 20th century saw a collection of geniuses,warriors,entrepreneurs and visionaries labour to create a fabulous machine that could function as a typewriter and printing press, studio and theatre, paintbrush and gallery, piano and radio, the mail as well as the mail carrier.

　　(41)______

　　The networked computer is an amazing device, the first media machine that serves as the mode of production, means of distribution, site of reception, and place of praise and critique. The computer is the 21st century's culture machine.

　　But for all the reasons there are to celebrate the computer, we must also tread with caution.

　　(42)______

　　I call it a secret war for two reasons. First, most people do not realise that there are strong commercial agendas at work to keep them in passive consumption mode.Second, the majority of people who use networked computers to upload are not even aware of the significance of what they are doing.All animals download, but only a few upload. Beavers build dams and birds make nests. Yet for the most part, the animal kingdom moves through the world downloading. Humans are unique in their capacity to not only make tools but then turn around and use them to create superfluous material goods - paintings, sculpture and architecture - and superfluous experiences - music, literature, religion and philosophy.

　　(43)______

　　For all the possibilities of our new culture machines, most people are still stuck in download mode. Even after the advent of widespread social media, a pyramid of production remains, with a small number of people uploading material, a slightly larger group commenting on or modifying that content, and a huge percentage remaining content to just consume.

　　(44)______

　　Television is a one-way tap flowing into our homes. The hardest task that television asks of anyone is to turn the power off after he has turned it on.

　　(45)______

　　What counts as meaningful uploading? My definition revolves around the concept of "stickiness" - creations and experiences to which others adhere.

　　[A] Of course, it is precisely these superfluous things that define human culture and ultimately what it is to be human. Downloading and consuming culture requires great skills, but failing to move beyond downloading is to strip oneself of a defining constituent of humanity.

　　[B] Applications like tumblr.com, which allow users to combine pictures, words and other media in creative ways and then share them, have the potential to add stickiness by amusing, entertaining and enlightening others.

　　[C] Not only did they develop such a device but by the turm of the millennium they had also managed to embed it in a worldwide system accessed by billions of people every day.

　　[D] This is because the networked computer has sparked a secret war between downloading and uploading - between passive consumption and active creation-whose outcome will shape our collective future in ways we can only begin to imagine.

　　[E] The challenge the computer mounts to television thus bears litte similarity to one format being replaced by another in the manner of record players being replaced by CD players.

　　[F] One reason for the persistence of this pyramid of production is that for the past half-century, much of the world's media culture has been defined by a single medium- television - and television is defined by downloading.

　　[G]The networked computer offers the first chance in 50 years to reverse the flow to encourage thoughtful downloading and, even more importantly, meaningful uploading.

　　41. [答案] C

　　[解析]复现结构定位法+代词指代定位法

　　41题出现在段尾。复现结构“The second half of the 20th century*20世纪后半期，与“the turn of the millennium"千年之交。代词“such a device' "指代“fabulous machine、typewriter and printing press"等设备。因此，正确答案为C。

　　42. [答案] D

　　[解析]复现结构定位法

　　42题出现在段中，根据就近原则，线索为“a secret war”-场秘密的战争。正确答案为D。

　　43. [答案] A

　　[解析]逻辑关系定位法+复现结构定位法+代词指代定位法

　　43题出现在文章段尾,前一句中提到superfluous material goods多余的材料,选项A中宾语these superfluous things这些多余的东西，可以在43题前-句中找到所指。前后两句话形成一个因果的逻辑关系，用连接词Of course，因此正确答案为A。

　　44. [答案] F

　　[解析]代词指代定位法+复现结构定位法

　　44题出现在段尾,起到承上启下的作用。个复现点在44题前一句主语a pyramid of production在选项F中宾语this pyramid of production复现。第二个复现点在television是下一-段落的主语，所以F选项为正确答案。

　　45. [答案] G

　　[解析]复现结构定位法

　　45题出现在段尾,起承上启下的作用。前文提到电视是one-way tap flowing单向流动,而互联网可以reverse the flow逆转这个流动。the flow的所指one-way tap flowing单向流动。第二个复现结构在于启下，45题下一段为特殊疑问句，中心词为meaningful uploading有意义的上传,选项G提及meaningful uploading 这-信息，所以，选项G为正确答案。
