One of the components of The Southside Poverty Alleviation Project which was implemented in 2012 was the improvement on the East and West Collet Canal Streets. Everyone can remember the unpleasant state of these streets and the canal which ran in the center. At the completion of the project there was no denying the practical and aesthetical improvement in these areas. It was like day and night: the difference was obvious.
The section most transformed was the area that spans the length of the West Collet Canal from Cemetery Road to Dean Street. This section was used by taxi drivers in front of the Novelo’s bus terminal and by produce vendors in front of the Michael Finnegan Market. The project allowed for taxi and private motor vehicle parking and in an innovative move the construction of business booths over the canal which has been lined with concrete.
This truly is an inspiring venture as it promotes and encourages entrepreneurship. This is something that we don’t have enough of. While this is surely encouraged it has been observed that one such business has placed barricades(路障)on the street in front of its entrance. This defeats the entire purpose of the rehabilitation of the Canal Streets which was to provide much needed parking space. Placing these barriers on the street itself deprives motorists of parking and in effect creates traffic problems in the area.
If history is our guide it is then accurate to assume that the next step which will be taken by this business is a waterproof canvas expansion... you guessed it, onto the street. This would mean that we would be back to square one. We will have the same problem we had in the beginning where vendors spread their produce on the street along the canal. It is therefore imperative that the relevant authorities take note and apply whatever corrective measure is needed to curb this immediately. Belize is transforming for the better. Let’s keep it that way.
Which of the following statements is CORRECT about the area that spans the length of the West Collet Canal from Cemetery Road to Dean Street?
选项
A、It used to be the messiest and poorest area along the canal.
B、It had the largest people flow of all the canal-side streets.
C、It was changed to a very large extent, compared to its past.
D、It was the most densely-populated area along the canal.
答案
C
解析
细节题。由题干中的the West Collet Canal from Cemetery Road to Dean Street定位至第二段。第二段第一句明确指出,这一区域是变化最大的区域,因此,与以前相比,它发生了很大变化,故[C]为答案。
