Each for its own reason, the study of residential mobility has been a concern of three disciplines: economics, geography and sociology. For the economist, residential shifts provide a means for studying the housing and land markets. Geographers study mobility to understand the spatial (空间的) distributions of population types. For the sociologist, interest in residential mobility has two sources: one stemming from the study of human ecology and the other, from a concern with the peculiar qualities of urban life. Of course, there are clearly overlapping concerns and it is often difficult to discern(辨别) the disciplinary origins of a researcher by sole examining the kinds of questions he or she raises about mobility, although it is usually easier to identify a researcher’s discipline by noting the methods used and the concepts employed.
Urban mobility first appears in the sociological literature as a term expressing rather generalized qualities of urban, as opposed to the non-urban life. Some sociologists refer to the mobility of the city as the considerable sum of myriad and incessant (不断的)sources of stimulation imposing upon the urban dweller, a sort of sensory overload which produces sophistication, indifference, and a lowered level of affection in urban dwellers. There is simply so much to experience that the urban dweller’s capacity is reduced to react in a "spontaneous’? and "natural" way to urban existence. It is mobility in this sense that produces some of the special qualities of urban life, which, on the one hand, ap peals to migrants as an escape from the dullness and oppression of rural existence with its lack of change and stimulation, and on the other hand, produces alienation in a society where men see each other primarily as means to ends rather than as ends in themselves. Of course, mobility in this larger sense of sensory overload is not a concept which lends itself easily to measurement, especially since it is a macro-system property.
Some sociologists believe that "sensory overload" ______.
选项
A、produces the dullness and oppression of rural existence
B、is responsible for some of evil characteristics of urban dwellers
C、is the result of the mobility of the city
D、appeals to non-urban dwellers
答案
B
解析
根据题干中关键词sensory overload找回原文第二段第二句对sensory overload做出解释的地方:a sort pf sensory overload which produces sophistication,indifference,and a lowered level of affection in urban dwellers.(一种在城市居民中产生圆滑,冷漠和较低层次的爱的感觉重负。)可见这种重负的产品sophistication.indifference,and a lowered level of affection都是城市居民的负面特点,与B)中所言evil characteristics(邪恶特色)大体相当。A)说的是rural existence(乡村生活)的特点,与原文中的urban dwellers(城市居民)不符,C)内容太泛没有针对性;D)中的non-urban dwellers(非城市居民)也与原文不符。
