Our environment is being polluted faster than the nature and man’s present efforts can prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry, more motor vehicles, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials.
What can explain and solve this problem? The fact is that pollution is caused by man—by his desire for a modem way of life. We make "increasing industrialization" our chief aim. For its sake, we are willing to sacrifice everything: clean air, pure water, good food, our health and the future of our children. There is a constant flow of people from the countryside into the cities, eager for the benefits of modem society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, so pollution has become a serious problem.
Isn’t it time we stopped to ask ourselves where we are going and why? It reminds one of the stories about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loudspeaker: "I’ve some good news and some bad news. The’good news is that we’re making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we are lost and don’t know where we’re going." The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when applied to our modem society.
选项
A、Man knows where the society is going.
B、People don’t welcome the rapid development of modern society.
C、The speaker is worried about the future of our modern society.
D、Man can do nothing about the problem of pollution.
答案
C
解析
What does the story about the pilot indicate?
综合推断题。文章中的飞行员说:“好消息是我们已把时速提高到每小时530英里,但坏消息是我们迷失了方向。”这句话暗示,虽然人类的科技不断发展,但环境污染也在恶化,由此推断,他是在担忧人类的未来,所以C正确。
