问题 Why are some major oil companies mentioned in the first paragraph?
The author uses the simile of fish and pond to explain that
选项 A、new technologies can help in finding oil.
B、we should not search for oil only in one place.
C、oil can be reproduced like fish in the pond.
D、there is a peak point in oil production.
答案D
解析 推理判断题。由题干中的fish和pond定位至文中第三段第二句。从句中的in other words可看出，这是对前一句的解释，首句指出：技术也无法消除Hubbert所发现的困难，即石油生产的速度有赖于石油开发量，之后又指出：石油生产的峰值出现在中间点。可见作者用钓鱼比喻石油开发是为于解释石油生产量出现峰值的原因。第二段第五句提到new technology help，但作者的意思是说尽管新技术能让石油产量提高，但由于其他客观原因，石油产量还是无法继续增加，而钓鱼这个比喻也正是用于说明此点；文中没有提到在多处探测石油的问题；此外，文中也没有提到鱼类繁殖问题。
