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] In the south, one effect of the development of the oil industry might be______.
选项
A、a large reduction in unemployment
B、a growth in the tourist industry
C、a reduction in the number of existing industries
D、the development of a number of service industries
答案
C
解析
本题问石油工业对南部地区的影响是什么。根据文章第三段,石油工业的影响还不仅仅限于对北部发展的影响。大家都能看出逐渐形成的一种趋势,就是由于石油工业缺少劳动力,只要在此行业申请求职几乎100%地被录取雇用。所以,服务业和旅游业的大批雇员就会流失到石油工业中。当购买进口产品比国产产品便宜时,一些小产业甚至可能会消失。因此,本题的正确答案应是C“石油工业会使南部地区的一些现有产业减少”。
