The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control. A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down (though these have already been raised); and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers. But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that Government will be able to hold things back for long. As one Norwegian politician said last week: "We will soon be changed beyond all recognition".
Ever since the law, the Government has been carrying out a program of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle. During the past few years this program has had a great deal of success; Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry. But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however. With nearly 100 per cent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose most of their workers to the oil industry. Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.
The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life. Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian. And it is the farmers and fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea. [br] The Norwegian Government would prefer the oil industry to______.
选项
A、provide more jobs for foreign workers
B、slow down the rate of its development
C、sell the oil it is producing abroad
D、develop more quickly than at present
答案
B
解析
本题是一道具体细节题。问挪威政府希望其石油工业做什么。文章第一段指出,挪威政府正竭尽全力控制石油工业的发展,并采取了一系列措施。例如:制定了一项新法律来限制对长长的海岸线南端以南的一个地区的石油开采,降低了石油产量限度(虽然这些限度又提高了),还要求石油公司不得雇用超出限额的外国工人。由此我们可以推知本题的正确答案应是B“挪威政府希望其石油工业减缓发展的速度”。
