If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands,you might have a hard time believing the news:e-mail is on the decline.
At first thought,that might seem to be the case.The incoming generation,after all,doesn't do e-mail.Oh,they might have an account.They use it only as we would use a fax machine:as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites.They rarely check it,though.
Today's instant electronic memos-such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages-are more direct,more concentrated,more efficient.They go without the salutation (称呼语) and the signoff (签收); we already know the"to"and"from."Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason:more signal,less noise and less time.This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated.Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later,I can now send you an easily-read message that you can read-and respond to-on the go.
The coming of the mobile era is responsible for the decline of e-mail.Instant written messages bring great convince to people.They can deal with them at about any time:before a movie,in a taxi,waiting for lunch.And because these messages are very brief,they're suitable for smart phone typing.
Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history?Not necessarily.E-mail still has certain advantages.On the other hand,tweets and texts feel ephemeral-you read them,then they're gone,into an endless string,e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file,search and return to later.It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications:agreements,important news,longer explanations.
So,e-mail won't go away completely.Remember,we've been through a transition (过度) like this not so long ago:when e-mail was on the rise,people said that postal mail was dead.That's not how it works.Postal mail found its smaller market,and so will e-mail.New technology rarely replaces old one completely; it just adds new alternatives.
56.What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts?___
A.Contact close friends.
B.Send long messages.
C.Fill in some forms.
D.Communicate with their colleagues.
57.Which of the following is mainly discussed in paragraphs 3and 4?___
A.The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail.
B.The likes and dislikes of the young generation.
C.The rapid development of e-communication channels.
D.Evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages.
58.What does the underlined word"ephemeral"in paragraph 5mean?___
A.Automatically-sending.
B.Randomly-written.
C.Hardly-recognized.
D.Shortly-appearing.
59.According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?___
A.It's too early to determine the decline of e-mail.
B.E-mail has reasons to exist on its own advantages.
C.E-mail,just like postal mail has come to its end.
D.We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail.
