根据MaxVernonMathews中的Thecomputerwassoslowthatitwouldhavetakenanhourtoplaythepieceofmusicinseventeenseconds.Forthatreason,Mathewsmovedtheworktoatapeplayer,whichcouldbespeduptoplaythemusicatanormalspeed.“电脑太慢了,播放一段17秒内的音乐需要一个小时。
出于这个原因,马修斯把作品搬到了一台磁带播放器上,这可以对其进行加速,以正常速度播放音乐。
”可知,Mathews放弃了用电脑创造并播放它,是因为他想找到更好的方法用现代技术创造声音。
故选D项。

巴顿是个演员。
他想到了一个工具,可以帮助电视演员读台词而不需要记住台词。
”可知,“在1950年,他和另外两个人发明了提词机。
”由此推知,teleprompter的意思为“电子提词机”。

故选C项。
