问题     Large modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who inhabit them. City-dwellers are obliged by their environment to adopt a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and rhythm of nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence in a large city that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are at a premium(珍贵). Tall buildings blot out the sun. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere.
    Even the distinction between day and night is lost. The flow of traffic goes on unceasingly and the noise never stops.
If you want to know what season it is, ______.

选项 A、it is advisable for you to cling to the pavement
B、you’d better visit a public park
C、you can remind yourself that it is spring or summer
D、you should be barely conscious of the seasons

答案B

解析 本题为细节辨认题。根据第一段第四句、第五句和第六句可知,城里人只有到公园里看到花,马路上看到落叶才能感觉到季节的变化。
