(33) Our environment is being polluted faster than nature and man’s present efforts can prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and 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. (34)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 the 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 is like the story about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loudspeaker: "I’ve some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we’re making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we’re lost and don’t know where we’re going." (35)The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when applied to our modern society.
选项
A、Because there are many developing nations.
B、Because people use so many motor vehicles.
C、Because we have more and more industry.
D、Because we are building more vehicles.
答案
C
解析
细节推断题。文章开头就提到,环境污染的速度比人类能够治理的速度要快得多,人越多,工业、汽车就越多.城市发展得约快,人造品消耗也就越多,也就意味着越多的污染。由此可知人类无法不污染地球的原因是C)“工业越来越发达”。
