问题 Why are some major oil companies mentioned in the first paragraph?
From the text we can conclude that the author

选项 A、is sympathetic to Shell.
B、worries about the oil industry.
C、takes a neutral attitude towards oil industry.
D、is optimistic about the oil production.

答案B

解析 观点态度题。在第一段和第二段提出世界石油产量达到峰值,将开始下滑的观点之后,举例说明,分析原因。第三段第五句中出现了dreaded(可怕的)一词,结合首段第二句中的few people listened,可以看出作者对这一现象表示担心。壳牌石油公司是首段提到的几个大石油公司中的一个,举例的目的是为了说明"石油产量将下滑"这一现象,作者只是在倒数第二句提到It sounds as though Shell is kissing the oil business goodbye,并没有表达同情之意;作者在前两段论述较客观,但第三段中的dreaded等词表达了作者对石油生产的担心,具有某种倾向性,态度并非中立;全文都是在解释石油生产量将下滑这一现象,分析原因,结尾处没有任何语句表明其产量将提高,表露乐观态度。
