问题 According to Landes, some countries are so poor mainly because
Which of the following statements might Landes agree on?

选项 A、Europeans set out to bring civilization to an unfortunate world.
B、The Europeans dominated other countries simply because they were strong.
C、Specific cultural values spurred the Europeans to colonize other countries.
D、The colonized countries were to blame for being victimized by Europeans.

答案B

解析 本题是细节题。按照题目顺序及选项内容定位至第四段。首句指出:Landes does not argue that Europeans were beneficent bearers of civilization to a benighted world,[A]与此矛盾,排除。第二句指出欧洲扩张的原因:When one group is strong enough to push another around and stands to gain by it, it will do so.[B]符合文意,故为答案。第三句中的“specific cultural values enabled technological advances”表明[C]不符合文意。[D]未提及,排除。
