Which of the following best completes the passage below?
At a recent conference on environmental threats to the North Sea, most participating countries favored uniform controls on the quality of effluents, whether or not specific environmental damage could be attributed to a particular source of effluent.
What must, of course, be shown, in order to avoid excessively restrictive controls, is that __________.
(A) any uniform controls that are adopted are likely to be implemented without delay
(B) any substance to be made subject to controls can actually cause environmental damage
(C) the countries favoring uniform controls are those generating the largest quantities of effluents
(D) all of any given pollutant that is to be controlled actually reaches the North Sea at present
(E) environmental damage already inflicted on the North Sea is reversible选的时候在B,E上纠结,请大牛指导!不胜感激 作者: tomchengs 时间: 2010-4-24 21:32
这道题目我做的时候选的是D,不过答案既然是B,那就肯定是我错了,考虑了很久,我觉得这是一道阅读题
whether or not specific environmental damage could be attributed to a particular source of effluent是作为the quality of effluents的同位语,即解释“污水的质量”就是“是否某种特殊的环境损害是由某种污水引起的”
答案B强调了某种物质是否对环境造成污染
我一开始阅读的时候,把whether or not specific environmental damage could be attributed to a particular source of effluent理解成“不管是否对环境造成污染”,意思就完全反掉了
