Our environment is being polluted faster than the 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 modem way of life. 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 modem society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, so 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’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 are lost and don’t know where we’re going." The sad fact is that this becomes a tree story when applied to our modem society.
选项
A、It’s because there are many developing nations.
B、It’s because people use too many man-made materials.
C、It’s because we have more and more industry.
D、It’s because we are building more vehicles
答案
C
解析
综合推断题。文章开头指出人口剧增,工业越来越发达,汽车、大城市等越来越多都是为了说明工业的发展使人们不能避免环境污染,所以C正确。
