问题 The third sentence of Paragraph 1 implies that ______.
In Paragraph 5", the powerless" probably refers to ______.

选项 A、areas short of electricity
B、dams without power stations
C、poor countries around India
D、common people in the Narmada Dam area

答案D

解析 本段开头作者提到:尽管有人向世界银行提出忠告,说Narmada大坝的修建不但会对"the powerless"不利,同时还可能造成对环境的破坏。但世界银行仍一意孤行,还是给这不合理的建坝工程开了绿灯。那么兴建大坝究竟谁能从中获益?作者在本段末句道出了真相:获益者当然是那些当权者(the powerful)。由此可以推断:第二句中的"the powerless"与此意相反,应为"无权者"或"平民百姓"。
