To protect beachfront buildings from ocean storms, ocean resorts have built massive seawalls between beaches and the buildings. Not only do the seawalls block off some buildings’ ocean view, but the beaches themselves become ever narrower, because sand can no longer creep inland as storms erode it at the water’ s edge. If the information is correct, which of the following conclusions is most strongly supported on the basis of it?
选项
A、Since the ferocity of ocean storms is increasing, increasingly high seawalls must be built between beaches and beachfront property.
B、Even when beaches are heavily used by people, they are necessary to the survival of the many wild species that use them.
C、Seawalls constructed to protect beachfront buildings will not themselves eventually be damaged by storms and will not require, if they are to protect the buildings, expensive repair or replacement.
D、The conservation of beaches for future generations should be the overriding goal of shore management at ocean coasts.
E、Trying to protect beachfront buildings by constructing seawalls is counterproductive in the long run for an oceanfront community wishing to maintain itself as a beach resort.
答案
E
解析
本题属于归纳题型,重在把握逻辑层次结构。段落第一句表明建立巨大防护墙可避免海边建筑免遭海洋风暴的袭击,第二句表明若这样,那么不仅遮住了一些海景,而且使海岸本身也变窄了。很明显,对于一个想要维护自己海滩疗养功能的海边社区来说,通过建筑防海墙来保护海边建筑的话,同时将使海岸本身变窄,所以(E)正确。
