Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
My generation —— the generation that came of age in the 1950s and 1960s —— may be the last one to know the feeling of being surrounded by millions of words that were the products of years of work by authors famous and obscure. For now we are seeing a subtle but unmistakable turning away from such things. The houses of America， I fear， may soon include no room for libraries. The hardcover book —— that symbol of the permanence of thought， the handing down of wisdom from one age to the next —— may be a new addition to our list of endangered species.
I have a friend who runs a bookstore in a Midwestern college town. He has found that he can not sell hardcover books； paperback books are his stock in trade， and even those are a disappointment to him. “You know how we used to see people carrying around book bags？” he tells me. “Well， now I look out of the window of my shop， and all I see are students carrying boxes from the record stores. The students aren’t reading any more. They’re listening to albums（唱片集）。”
And indeed he may be right. Stories of problems young people have with reading are not new， but the trend seems to be worsening. Recently the president of a university in New York said that 10 percent of the freshmen （大学一年级学生） at this university could read no better than the average eighth grader. There is an even more worrying aspect to it： of those college freshmen whose reading skills were equivalent to the sixth-to-eighth-grade level， the president reported that many had ranked in the top half of their high-school classes.
21. The underlined word “obscure” （Paragraph 1） most probably means ____.
A. not well-paid B. not well-made C. not well-trained D. not well-known
