问题 There is much discussion today about whether economic growth is desirable．At an earlier period，our desire for material wealth may have been justified．Now，however，this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems．Even though we have good intentions，we may be producing too much，too fast．
    Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down．They believe that the society is approaching certain limits on growth．These include the fixed supply of natural resources，the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment，and the continuing increase in the world’s population．As the society reaches these limits，economic growth can no longer continue，and the quality of life may decline．
    People who want more economic growth，on the other hand，argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world．These proponents of economic growth believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world．Furthermore，they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial resources required to protect our natural surroundings from industrialization．
    This debate over the desirability of continued economic growth is of vital importance to business and industry．If those who argue against economic growth are correct，the problems they mention cannot be ignored．To find a solution，economists and business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another．
    请回答下列问题。
We may infer from the passage that____________．
选项 A、the author describes the case as it is
B、the author is for economic growth
C、the author is against continued economic growth
D、the author is not worried about the problems caused by economic growth
答案A
解析 态度题。前三段中，作者只是在客观地列举辩论双方的观点及原因；最后一段，作者指出此辩论对工商业很重要，然后针对其中一方情况作了进一步的说明，注意这里的if从句，它决定了这段并不是作者的观点，作者还是在客观地陈述，并没有明确说哪方正确，或明确表明自己支持哪方。故本题选A。
