【解析】本题询问科林·狄克逊所说的这句话的意思。第1段开头就指出互动电视广告已推出多年。大概10多年前就有人预测它的前景广阔。但在段末处科林·狄克逊表示过去的10年、12年每年都在说今年是互动电视广告之年。换言之,互动电视广告发展停滞不前。因此D项“互动电视广告没有取得预期效果”正确。【干扰项排除】A项“互动电视广告将在十至十二年内流行起来”与文章表达内容不符，原文只是提及过去十至十二年及如今互动电视广告的情况。原文并没有提到过去互动电视广告是否受到争议,B项“互动电视广告在过去的十年左右一直备受争议”没有依据。文中只是对《老友记》中可能出现的互动广告作一个假想，但十多年过后的今天仍未能够取得大的进展，因此C项“当与情境喜剧相结合，互动电视广告取得成功”与原文不符。7.Whatisthepublic'sresponsetoCablevision'splannedinteractiveTVadvertisingprogram?[单选题]*A.Prettypositive.B.Totallyindifferent.C.Somewhatdoubtful.(正确答案)D.Rathercritical.答案解析：7[C]【定位】根据题干中的Cablevision,thepublic'sresponse定位至第2段第1句。

【解析】本题询问民众对于美国有线电视公司筹划的互动电视广告项目作何反应。根据第2段第1句，当有线电视网（Cablevision)和美国有线电视公司宣布将在10月6日向有的观众推出互动广告，随之引起人们的质疑。C项中的doubtful是原文skepticism的同义替换，故C项“有些疑虑”正确。【干扰项排除】A项“相当肯定”、B项“完全冷漠”和D项“严厉批评”与原文的skepticism意思不符，故均予以排除。8.WhatistheimpactofthewideuseofdigitalvideorecordersonTVadvertising?[单选题]*A.IthasmadeTVadvertisingeasilyaccessibletoviewers.B.Ithelpsadvertiserstomeasuretheclick-throughrates.C.IthasplacedTVadvertisingatagreatdisadvantage.(正确答案)D.Itenablesviewerstocheckthesalesitemswithease.答案解析：
