Our environment is being polluted faster than nature and man’s present efforts can prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and [26]more people will bring us more industry, more motor vehicles, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials. What can explain and solve this problem? The fact is that pollution is caused by man—by his desire for a modern way of life. [27]We make "increasing industrialization" our chief aim. For its sake, we are willing to sacrifice everything: clean air, pure water, good food, our health and future of our children. There is a constant flow of people from the countryside into the cities, eager for the benefits of modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, pollution has become a serious problem.
Isn’t it time we stopped to ask ourselves where we are going—and why? It reminds one of the stories about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loudspeaker: "I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we’re making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. [28] The bad news is that we’re lost and don’t know where we are going." The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when applied to our modern society.
26. Why can’t man prevent the world from being polluted?
27. According to the speaker, what does man value most among the following?
28. What does the story about the pilot indicate?
选项
A、Industrial development.
B、Their own health.
C、Their children’s future.
D、Sound environment.
答案
A
解析
短文提到,我们把“提高工业化”作为我们首要目标。所以A正确。选项为名词短语,多半问细节或主旨。本题问细节。注意在听到选项提到的词时,在旁边记录相关信息。答案为原文increasing industrialization的同义表达。
