Good afternoon. I want to thank Professor Jones for giving me the opportunity to talk to you students today about Alaska. One of the things that concerns me most is the future of Alaska environment. About 20 yearn ago before going on a wilderness research expedition, I visited Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It was then a small city of 40,000 inhabitants, surrounded by a quiet wilderness. When I made a recent trip to update my early work, I found amazing changes. Anchorage now has 180,000 people, more than four times as many as in 1960. Those skyscrapers, shopping centres and all the accompanying crowds and traffic jams. The forests and mountains are still nearby, but they seem diminished by the city’s great size. The discovery of oil in 1968 on the north slope of Alaska caused many of these changes. The construction of the oil pipeline brought increased wealth to the state. However, them have been too many people moving to Alaska in a short period to work on the pipeline. There was not enough housing and transportation. I think Alaska must make important decisions soon. Alaska needs to decide how to develop their natural resources and mineral wealth without destroying the wilderness and harming the wild life. What is decided on now will affect generations to come.
选项
A、It was the largest city of Alaska.
B、It was a city of 40,000 people.
C、There were a lot of wild animals around it.
D、There was no sign of human presence around it.-
答案
C
解析
该题问“下列那种叙述和20年前Anchorage城的状况不相符?”文中讲道About 20 years ago... I visited Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska. It was then a small city of 40,000 inhabitants, surrounded by a quiet wilderness.(20年前……,我去了阿拉斯加最大的城市Anchorage。它当时只是一个只有四万人的小城镇,四周寂静而荒凉。)由此,可以看出,C项“周围有很多野生动物”符合题意。
