参考答案

正确答案：D
解析：本题为内在关系题，要求考生能够把握要点之间的内在关系。题目问：这段讲座隐含着什么意思?第二段中间的关键句“...speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news (现代传播发送和接收的速度起了革命性的变化，因此往往使地方新闻落后于全国新闻，而全国新闻往往又不及国际新闻)”，由此可知，国际新闻传播得最快，所以选项D应为正确答案。
