Britain almost more than any other country in the world most seriously faces the problem of building upwards, that is to say, of accommodating a considerable proportion of its population in high blocks of flats. It is said that the English man objects to this type of existence, but if the case is such, he does in face differ from the inhabitants of most countries of the world today. In the past our own blocks of flats have been associated with the lower-income groups and they have lacked the obvious provisions, such as central heating, constant hot water supply, electrically operated lifts from top to bottom, and so on, as well as such details, important notwithstanding (然而), as easy facilities for disposal of dust and rubbish and storage places for baby carriages in the ground floor, playgrounds for children on the top of the buildings, and drying grounds for washing. It is likely that the dispute regarding flats versus (对,对抗) individual houses will continue to rage on for a long time as far as Britain is concerned. And it is unfortunate that there should be hot feelings on both sides whenever this subject is raised. Those who oppose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption (设想) that everyone prefers an individual home and garden and on the high cost per unit of accommodation. The latter ignores the higher cost of providing full services to a scattered community and the cost in both money and time of the journeys to work for the suburban resident.
Some people oppose the building of flats because ______.
选项
A、the living expenses for each individual family are higher
B、it involves higher cost compared with the building of houses
C、they believe people like to live in houses with gardens
D、the disposal of rubbish remains a problem for those living in flats
答案
C
解析
本题问:有些人反对建公寓楼房是什么原因?根据文章第11至13行,Those who op pose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption that everyone prefers an individual home and garden...可知该题最佳为C。文章第13行说有人反对建公寓的另一个原因是...high cost per unit of accommodation(每个居住单元的高成本),结合下一句可以确定,这里所讲的“成本”指的是居住公寓所需的各种费用支出,包括下句提到的services和journeys to work方面的费用支出,而不是指选项B中所说的“建房成本”,故B项应予排除。正确选项应为C。
