21.选[A]。解答此题需要分析句子间的逻辑关系。第二句中的第一个词"Yet"表明了本句是对第一句内容的转折。第一句讲到20世纪电视的发展和15世纪、16世纪与20世纪之间的年代发生的事。同时,第三句中出现的19世纪也确定了本题的选择为[A]between, 指这两个时间段中间的年代。

22.选[D]。本题考查it is … that…强调句型。下文not until结构,被强调的部分是not until引导的时间状语。

23.选[C]。本题考查词义辨析。所给四个单词都有"方法,手段"的意思,但medium还有"媒体"的意思,正文正好用来指newspaper,因为newspaper是一种"媒体"。Medium的复数形式是media。

24.选[B]。本题需要对比两个短语:in the wake of 和in the company of.前者的意思是"在……之后",后者的意思是"与……同时"。company在此句中的意思是"陪伴,伴随"。本句表明传单和书出现在报纸之前,而期刊是和报纸同时出现的。

25.选[B]。本题考查词义辨析。Speed up是"加速"的意思。本句讲的是19世纪通讯革命的发展。从句意来看,只能选[B]。

26.选[A]。本题考查副词on表"继续"的用法。本句讲19世纪通讯革命的发展,从交通、铁路开始, 发展到电报、电话、无线电和电影,直到20世纪的汽车和飞机。从这三个阶段可看出本题只能选[A]。

27.选[D]。本题考查介词的意义。由空格后的20th century world及与之相搭配的动词lead来看,〔D〕into是正确选项。

28.选〔D〕。本题考查固定搭配的用法。in perspective是固定短语,意思是"正确地"。本句的意思是:并不是所有的人都正确地认识了这一过程。本段最后一句指出"正确认识这一过程是很重要的"。
