Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the author?
The sentence "the figures are enough to make your hair stand on end" (Paragraph 3) probably means ______.
选项
A、the figures are too surprised to believe
B、the figures seem to be so high that we think them to be unacceptable
C、the figures are so big that we may be surprised at them
D、it seems that the figures are high enough
答案
C
解析
这是一道词义题。题干中的信号词出自于文章第三段第三句话中。文章第三段指出:这是有关生死存亡的问题,因为世界的人口正在以令人难以置信的速度增长;到下个世纪中叶,世界每年增长的人口就会像耶稣诞辰后头1500年内全世界增长的总人口一样多;在南半球,世界的贫困地区,增长的比例足以让你大吃一惊。这说明,该句话的意思应该是“人口增长的比率太快,令人惊讶”。C说“比率太高,我们可能感到惊奇”,这与文章的意思相符。A、B和D都不准确。
