Preserving Nature for Future
Demands for stronger protection for wildlife in Britain sometimes hide the fact that similar needs are felt in the rest of Europe.Studies by the Council of Europe,of which 21 countries are members,have shown that 45 percent of reptile(爬行类的)species and 24 percent of butterflies are in danger of dying out.
European concern for wildlife was outlined by Dr.Peter Baum,an expert in the environment and natural resources division of the council,when he spoke at a conference arranged by the administrators of a British national park.The park is one of the few areas in Europe to hold the council’s diploma for nature reserves of the highest quality,and Dr.Peter Baum had come to present it to the park once again.He was afraid that public opinion was turning against national parks,and that those set up in the 1960s and 1970s could not be set up today.But Dr.Baum clearly remained a strong supporter of the view that natural environment needed to be allowed to survive in peace in their own right.
"No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve and as a tourist attraction,"he went on.The short-sighted(眼光短浅的)view that reserves had to serve immediate human demands for outdoor recreation should be replaced by full acceptance of their importance as places to preserve nature for the future.
"We forget that they are the guarantee of life systems,on which any built-up area ultimately depends," Dr.Baum went on," we could manage without most industrial products,but we could not manage without nature.However,our natural environment areas,which are the original parts of our countryside,have shrunk to become mere(纯粹的)islands in a spoiled and highly polluted land mass."
选项
Why did Dr.Baum come to a British national park?
A:Because he needed to present it with a council's diploma.
B:Because he was concerned about its management.
C:Because it was the only national park of its kind in Europe.
D:Because it was the only park which had ever received a diploma from the Council.
答案
A
解析
由文章第一段第二句话“Studies by the Council of Europe …have shown that 45 percent of reptile species and 24 percent of butterflies are in danger of dying out.”可知,一些种类的爬行类动物和蝴蝶正濒临灭绝,由此可推断出它们需要受到保护。故选D。
由文章第二段第二句话“The park is one of the few areas in Europe to hold the council ' s diploma for nature reserves of the highest quality,and Dr.Peter Baum had come to present it to the park once again.”可知,英国国家公园是欧洲少数几个持有最高质量自然保护区委员会执照的公园,Dr.Baum去那的目的就是想再次把执照授予这个公园。故选A。
由文章第二段最后一句话“But Dr.Baum clearly remained a strong supporter of the view that natural environment needed to be allowed to survive in peace in their own right.”可知,Dr.Baum始终支持这样一种观点,那就是自然环境需要在它们自己的权利下和平地生存下去。也就是暗示乡村的一些地区应该被完好无损地保护起来。故选C。
由文章第三段中“' No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve and as a tourist attraction,'he went on.The short-sighted view that reserves had to serve immediate human demands…”可知,Dr.Baum认为,利用自然保护区来吸引游客,满足人类的娱乐需求是一种目光短浅的观点。故选C。
由文章最后一段中“We could manage without most industrial products , but we could not manage without nature…our natural environment areas,which are the original parts of our countryside,have shrunk to become mere islands in a spoiled and highly polluted land mass.”可知,没有大多数工业产品我们可以生存,但是没有自然我们则不能生存。自然环境区是乡村的原始部分,但现在它们严重缩小,成为了散布在被严重破坏和污染的土地上的一座座孤岛。由此可推断出工业的发展是以破坏乡村为代价的。故选A。
