问题                         A Letter from Alan
    I have learnt of a plan to build three hundred houses on the land called Parson’s Place by the football ground. Few people know about this new plan to increase the size of our town. For me, Parson’s Place is special because it is a beautiful natural area where local people can relax—the small wood has many unusual trees and the stream is popular with fishermen and bird-watchers. It’s very quiet because there are few houses or roads nearby. I think that losing this area will be terrible because we have no other similar facilities in the neighbourhood.
    I am also against this plan because it will cause traffic problems. How will the people from the new houses travel to work? The motorway and the railway station are on the other side of town. Therefore, these people will have to drive through the town centre every time they go anywhere. The roads will always be full of traffic, there will be nowhere to park and the tourists who come to see our lovely old buildings will leave. Shops and hotels will lose business. If the town really needs more homes, the empty ground beside the railway station is a more suitable place.
    No doubt the builders will make a lot of money by selling these houses. But, in my opinion, the average person will quickly be made poorer by this plan. As well as this, we will lose a very special place and our town will be much less pleasant.
    I am going to the local government offices on Monday morning to protest about this plan and I hope that your readers will join me there. We must make them stop this plan before it is too late.
Why is Parson’s Place particularly important, in Alan’s opinion? ______
选项 A、Because lots of people live near it.
B、Because it is a place near the town where people can enjoy nature.
C、Because it is near the football ground.
D、Because local people can get there easily by car from the town.
答案B
解析 本题问的是：在Alan看来，为什么帕森场非常重要?第一段中提到“因为它是一个美丽的天然场地并且当地人可以在此放松休息”。因此B是正确答案。
