问题 Which of the following can’t we infer according to the author?
The purpose of Paragraph 2 is to ______.
选项 A、show privatized water is world’s direction to solve water crisis.
B、explain why $37 billion will be invested to solve the problem of water shortage in Saudi Arabia.
C、show Saudis consumed too much water even though Saudi Arabia is the driest parts of the globe.
D、call for government to find more solutions for water conservation.
答案A
解析 文章第二段：Saudi Arabia began privatizing water services after shortages sparked riots...Saudi Arabia plans to invest $37 billion over five years to improve water pipelines．细节题。考查对第二段句子意思的理解。本段写沙特水危机的严重，部长称到2010年私有公司将为一半的本国人口提供水资源，实际上是为了引出下文对水资源私有化的论述，所以A正确。沙特将投资370亿美元来解决缺水问题；尽管是世界上最干旱的地区，沙特使用的水量是英国的两倍，这些都是表面上的事实，而不是写第二段的意图，故可排除B、C。文中说政府在introducing measures to encourage water conservation."寻求多种办法解决水资源保护问题"，这是政府自己正在做的努力，而不是选项D所指的作者号召政府有所为，故排除。
