如何理解求变是设计的永恒话题?

答案

参考答案:

纵观设计,任何一种设计作品都不可能是永恒的。虽然历代设计师均创造了足以流芳百世的经典之作,但是,后人的评价往往是站在充分理解当时特有的政治、经济、文化、科技背景下,而称之为永恒。因此,不变是相对的,每一个时代的设计观念、设计方法和设计实现过程体现在设计作品中都无不印有那个时代特殊的烙印。

变的原则之一:正确把握设计物的生命周期理论,依据其在市场中所显现的变化契机,准确地制定改良、剔除和新品种的开发设计战略;

变的原则之二:及时掌握并预测变化趋势,以适应变化,引导变化的观念指导设计,使设计成为时代变化的表征和进步的催化剂;

设计的流行性概念也正是源于其变化的原则而出现的。

单项选择题

Today more and more people go to websites when looking for information. Although most readers go to websites for news and e-mail, a form of person-to-person news, or in the form of chatting, they also read books on the web. It’s called electronic book (e-book).

Electronic books could revolutionize reading, but people ought to consider their far-reaching impacts as well. "The e-book promises to cause a slow tragedy on life as we know it," Jason Ohler, professor of technology assessment, university of Alaska Southeast In Juneau, warned the World Future Society, Bethesda, Md. His assessment weighed the pros and cons (赞成和反对的理由) of e-book technology’s impact on social relationships, the environment, the economy, etc. Before you curl up (蜷曲) with an e-book, consider the disadvantages.

They increase eyestrain due to poor screen resolution, replace a relatively cheap commodity with a more expensive one, and displace workers in print-book production and traditional publishing. E-books make it easy to share data, thereby threatening copyright agreements and reducing compensation (补偿) of authors, as well as creating nonbiodegradable (不可生物降解) trash.

On the other hand, e-books save paper and trees, reduce the burden of the carrying and storing of printed books, promote self-sufficiency in learning, and make reading a collaborative experience online. They also create new jobs for writers and artists and encourage self-publishing. In final analysis, Ohler points out, e-books should gain society’s approval if a few conditions are met: make them biodegradable and recyclable, solve the problem of eye fatigue, be sure the "have-nots" get the technology, and support e-book training in schools and business.

What does Ohler suggest regarding the use of e-books().

A. The society should ensure the poor have access to the technology.

B. The society should ban the use of e-books if they cannot reduce eye fatigue.

C. The society should approve of the use of e-books if they are made recyclable.

D. The schools should solve the present problems of e-books.
