Britain almost more than any other country in the world most seriously faces the problem of building upwards, that is to say, of accommodating a considerable proportion of its population in high blocks of flats. It is said that the English man objects to this type of existence, but if the case is such, he does in face differ from the inhabitants of most countries of the world today. In the past our own blocks of flats have been associated with the lower-income groups and they have lacked the obvious provisions, such as central heating, constant hot water supply, electrically operated lifts from top to bottom, and so on, as well as such details, important notwithstanding (然而), as easy facilities for disposal of dust and rubbish and storage places for baby carriages in the ground floor, playgrounds for children on the top of the buildings, and drying grounds for washing. It is likely that the dispute regarding flats versus (对,对抗) individual houses will continue to rage on for a long time as far as Britain is concerned. And it is unfortunate that there should be hot feelings on both sides whenever this subject is raised. Those who oppose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption (设想) that everyone prefers an individual home and garden and on the high cost per unit of accommodation. The latter ignores the higher cost of providing full services to a scattered community and the cost in both money and time of the journeys to work for the suburban resident. [br] The word "rage" (Line 10) means ______.
选项
A、be ignored
B、develop with great force
C、encourage people greatly
D、be in fashion
答案
B
解析
本题问:第10行中的单词rage是什么意思?这是一道词义题。rage作动词表示“狂欢”或“盛行”的意思,代人文章,“这场关于公寓与私宅之间的争执仍将在英国激烈地持续下去”,可见,rage在文中应解释为“激烈地持续下去”,这样选项B就是最佳选择。
