Waterscooters are water vehicles that look very much like motorcycles. Nowadays speedy colorful waterscooters are gaining in popularity. They can travel anywhere a small boat can and are typically popular with young people. The rising popularity of the craft has raised a question of water scooter regulation.
    In this case, the argument for strict regulation is compelling. Waterscooters are a particularly deadly form of water recreation. For example, two women were vacationing in Longboat Key. While they were floating on a rubber boat along the shore, a water scooter crashed into them and killed them.
    Also, water scooter operators have been killed or seriously injured in collisions with other watercraft. Others have been stranded at sea when their scooters either failed or sank far from shore. Many water scooter operators are inexperienced and ignorant of navigational rules, which increases the potential for accidents. The increasing popularity of the scooter has aggravated the problem, providing more water vehicles to compete for the same space. Crowded water ways are simply an open invitation to disaster.
    In addition to the inherent operational hazards of waterscooters, they are proving to be an environmental nuisance. Beach residents complain of the noise of the scooters. The Pacific Whale Foundation on the west coast expressed concern that the scooters are frightening a-way an endangered species of whale that migrates to Hawaii for breeding. Regulations, such as minimum operating age, restricted Operating areas, and compulsory classes in water safety, are essential. Without such regulations, tragedies involving waterscooters are sure to multiply, which makes many beaches unsafe for recreation.

选项 A、Expand operating areas.
B、Restrict operating hours.
C、Limit the use of waterscooters.
D、Enforce necessary regulations.

答案 D

解析 What does the speaker propose to ensure the safety of beaches for recreation?
四个选项都是动宾短语,而且都是与保证安全相关的建议,由此推测可能提问采取哪一种安全措施。对厂水上滑板车存在的众多问题,文章在结尾处提出了相关的建议:Regulations,such as minimum operating age,restricted operating areas,and compulsory classes in water safety,are essential. 总的来说,就是加强管理,具体提到了minimum operating age(最小驾驶年龄)、restricted operating areas(限定操作区域)和compulsory classes in water safety(进行水上安全方面的培训)等。结合四个选项,仅有D)进行的总述正确。
