Commercial classical music radio in North America has changed dramatically over the past decade. The number of stations has shrunk very rapidly—many operators dropped the format in favor of something more profitable, like pop or rock, with their crazy youthful audience. But the availability of satellite radio, Internet streaming and digital technologies has introduced new options for classical fans.
In the city of Toronto, a familiar media player entered the tray last year: Moses Znaimer, 65, the famous brave television pioneer who was the driving force behind Toronto’ s CITY-TV. Eleven months ago, he took ownership of Classical 96. 3 FM, Canada’ s first and largest commercial classical station, which "re-launched" this month with some new on-air hosts, a totally new schedule, and more attention to singing art and less to full-length symphonies.
The popular station airs selections(usually no more than 10 to 15 minutes long)of greatest-hits classical works, 24 hours a day. This usually means single movements of larger works and other pieces, with commercial ads in between. The station may never be the preferred destination of highbrow classical fans, who seek full-length symphonies and operas. But this doesn’ t seem to trouble Znaimer, who says of his main competitor, CBC Radio Two: " They play classical, and they do it well when they do it, but they don’ t do it all the time, and they’ re doing it less and less. "
Marilyn Gilbert, a Toronto artist manager, also makes a comparison to Canada’ s national broadcaster when she praises Znaimer’ s station: "Classical 96. 3 FM is very important for the community and the country, especially in view of the changes that are going on at CBC. "
Znaimer is best-known for his influential work in television, but he was also one of the creators of Cross Country Checkup, the longest-running show on CBC Radio. Today he calls Classical 96.3 FM "arguably the most successful of all classical music stations on the continent. At about 800,000 listeners per week, we are larger even than the New York Times classical station[WQXR-FM]. " And under his excellent and creative leadership, the sound of the station has become livelier.
From the text we learn that Moses Znaimer wanted to______.
选项
A、consolidate his position at Classical 96.3 FM
B、acquaint classical fans with some new radio stations
C、help expand Toronto’ s CITY-TV into a bigger business
D、make Classical 96.3 FM more satisfying to classical fans
答案
D
解析
推断题。从文章第二段可知:渃拿摩负责了FM 96.3之后,使电台重新开播,并在主持人和节目计划方面做出了调整。同时,文章第三段,当渃拿摩谈及CBC Radio Two时,他认为“他们播放古典音乐,而且做得不错,但是没有一直这么做,他们做得越来越少”。由此可以推断渃拿摩主要想让FM 96.3更好地为喜欢古典音乐的听众服务.故选D.
