If the Dakota Access Pipeline(输油管道) is completed, it will carry nearly half a million barrels of oil across four states every day. Energy Transfer Partners (ETP) , a Texas-based company behind the $3. 8 billion project, hopes to finish construction this year. But the Standing Rock Sioux, an American Indian tribe(部落), is determined to stop the 1,172-mile pipeline from being built. (76)
Both sides show no signs of backing down.
The Dakota Access Pipeline was announced in 2014. A section of it will run near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. A reservation is an area of land set aside for American Indians. The tribe says the construction threatens to destroy historical areas and ancient burial sites. They also say the pipeline could pollute their main water source, the Missouri River. In April, the Standing Rock Sioux began a protest against the project. They camped at the construction site. Since then, thousands of people, including people from American Indian tribes, have traveled to the site to join the protest.
ETP says that the pipeline will have built-in safety measures to protect against oil leaks. Workers will also monitor it remotely, and will be able to close valves (阀) within three minutes if leaks are detected.
American Indians have been staging a nonviolent protest for months. The protest took a turn last week when police were called to keep the peace between protesters and armed security guards hired by the company.
(77)
Twenty-eight people have been arrested since then and charged with interfering with the pipeline construction.
According to the passage, the workers can______in case of pipeline leaks.
选项
A、report it to the local government
B、ask people to leave the leak affected areas
C、call 911
D、close valves
答案
D
解析
细节题。题干问的是“根据文章,出现管道泄漏时,工人可以如何应对?”定位句“工人们可以进行远程监控,如果发现有泄露,他们可以在3分钟之内关上阀门。”表明工人可以关闭阀门。A项“向当地政府汇报”;B项“让人们离开泄漏影响地区”;C项“打电话给911”,均未在文中提及。故选D。
