Oil Industry in Norway
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control.A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline;production limits have been laid down(though these have already been raised);and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers.But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems,and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long.
As an Norwegian politician said last week:"We will soon be changed beyond all recognition."
Ever since the war,the Government has been carrying out a program of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle.During the past few years this program has had a great deal of success: Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university,a large hospital and a healthy industry.But the oil industry has already started to draw people south,and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north,however. With nearly 100 percent employment,everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry.Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.
The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life.Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population,but they are an important part of it,because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian.And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.
选项
According to the passage,the oil industry might lead northern Norway to________.
A:the development of industry
B:a growth in population
C:the failure of the development program
D:the development of new towns
答案
C
解析
第一段,挪威政府设定了一项新的法律以限制石油的勘探,其目的在于减缓发展的步伐,所以选B。
政府设定“production limits(产量限制)”的初衷在于使石油工业保持现有的发展水平,而不想扩展。
第二段开头提到政府在第二次世界大战后一直在实施北极圈北部地区的发展项目,尽管取得了成效,但是石油工业的高就业率吸引着人们,这将导致北部发展项目的失败。
第三段指出,服务业和旅游业的从业人员转向石油行业,其影响之一便是一些现有行业的消失。
挪威的农民和渔夫之所以重要,原因在于他们身上具有挪威人引以为自豪的品质,即他们的生活方式和价值观,因此选项D正确。
