Once upon a time (not so very long ago, either!) industrial goods were made to last forever. If you bought a ear or a stove, it was a once-in-a-lifetime investment(投资). You paid good money for it, and you took care of it. Nowadays industry has persuaded us that products shouldn’t last a long time. It’s cheaper to throw them away than it is to repair them. This has led directly to the "throw-away society" which is a tremendous waste of the earth’s resources.
Just think of the cars that are traded in daily, just because they are out of style. Think of the expensive packaging material that is thrown away every time a new object is bought. And we consumers have to pay for that material! Our industrial society has turned us into spoiled children. This wastefulness has got ten us into the mess (困境) we are in now. When we have no resources left, then we’ll start to take care of what we have. But why can’t we act before this happens? Why can’t we go back to being a society in which the prevention of waste is a virtue?
What’s the author’s attitude towards the waste of the earth’s resources ?
选项
A、Negative.
B、Positive.
C、Neutral.
D、Enthusiastic.
答案
A
解析
本题为推理题。文章强调的是,把买来的商品用过即扔是对资源的一种浪费。最后作者还呼吁大家回到把节俭看成美德的社会中去。故此我们很容易看出作者对“用过即扔”的态度是否定的,故选A。
