Responsibilities pertaining to property and land use are agreed upon within a signed, binding contract. And while it is fathomable that a disagreement with the owner of an adjacent property may occur, particular difficulty arises in defining the party liable for necessary maintenance when said disagreement is over the deterioration of a naturally occurring, communally-owned parcel, such as a beach.
In California, the coastal city of Encinitas is slowly watching its shoreline wash away. The beach has a massive sand deficit with over 100,000 cubic yards of sand lost on an annual basis. The sand erosion is a natural occurrence, but beachfront property owners and the city government are attempting to fight mother nature with a sand replenishment project. This involves dredging up 2 million cubic yards of sand from the ocean bottom at a cost of $25 million. [br] Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
选项
A、Everyone knows that $25 million is a lot of money.
B、However, local oceanographers claim that dredging the ocean floor will have catastrophic consequences for native sea-life.
C、Because sand erosion occurs naturally, many city residents claim that replenishment is unnecessary.
D、While the property owners and the government are in agreement over the value of the project, neither side is willing to assume the costs.
E、The dredging project would be repeated every five years.
答案
D
解析
The best answer is D. The passage’s main idea is that conflict often arises over who has to pay to improve communally-owned property. Only choice D links this idea to the situation in Encinitas.
