For the 1992 Winter Games, French organizers constructed a new motorway, parking lots and runs for skiing in the Alps. Environmentalists screamed "Disaster!" Thus warned, the Norwegians have adopted "green" advice and avoided great blots on the landscape. The speed-skating rink was built to look like an overturned ship, and placed so as not to disturb a bird sanctuary. Dug into a mountainside, the hockey arena is well concealed and energy efficient. The bobsled run is built out of wood, not metal and hidden among trees. No wonder the president of the International Olympic Committee has called these the first "Green Games."
Lillehammer’s opening ceremonies featured a giant Olympic Torch burning biogas produced by rotting vegetation. During construction, builders were threatened with $7,500 fines for felling trees unnecessarily. Rare trees were carefully transplanted from hillsides. Food is being served on potato-based plates that will be fed, in turn, to pigs. Smoking has been banned outdoors as well as in, with enforcement by polite requests.
Environmentalists have declared partial victory: though Coca-Cola’s plan to decorate the town with banners has been scaled back, there are still too many billboards for strict green tastes. Perhaps, but after the Games, athlete housing will be converted into vacation homes or shipped to the northlands for student dormitories. Bullets will be plucked from biathlon targets and recycled to keep the lead from poisoning ground water. And these tricks won’t be forgotten. Embarrassed by environmental protests, the I. O. C. claims that green awareness is now entrenched—along with sport and culture—as a permanent dimension of the Olympic Charter.
Indeed, Sydney was successful in becoming host for the 2000 Summer Games in part on the strength of its endorsement from Greenpeace. Aspiring host cities are picking up the code. Salt Lake City, bidding for the 2002 Games, may opt to use the bobsled run that Calgary built for the ’88 Games. After that, who could deny that recycling is an Olympic movement? [br] Which of the following countries has not paid enough attention to the "green" issues?
选项
A、Norway.
B、France.
C、America.
D、Australia.
答案
B
解析
推断题。根据文章第一段“the Norwegians have adopted‘green’advice and avoid great blots on the landscape…”,及第二段“Lillehammer’s opening ceremonies…”,可知在挪威的Lillehammer城举办的奥林匹克运动会开幕式上,奥林匹克火炬是用腐烂植物产生的生化气点燃的;珍贵树木被小心翼翼地从山坡上移植到别处,这一切都表明挪威对绿色奥运给予极大的重视。文章最后一段中说澳大利亚的悉尼成功地成为2000年夏季奥运会东道主部分是因为她是绿色和平组织的成员;美国盐湖城申报2002年奥运会,可能选用加拿大举办1988年奥运会时建造的大雪橇滑道,这表明上述两国也为绿色奥运做出了努力。而根据文章第一段“For the 1992 Winter Games,French organizers constructed a new motorway,…”(法国举办1992年冬季奥运会时,因为建造了新的高速公路等遭到了环保主义者的强烈反对,称之为“灾难”。)。由上可见,B 为正确答案。
