Meanwhile, in India, the World Bank has given the go ahead to the even more wrong headed Narmada Dam. And the bank has done this even though its advisors say the dam will cause hardship for the powerless and environmental destruction. The benefits are for the powerful, but they are far from guaranteed.
Proper, scientific study of the impacts of dams and of the cost and benefits of controlling water can help to resolve these conflicts. Hydroelectric power and flood control and irrigation are possible without building monster dams. But when you are dealing with myths, it is hard to be either proper, or scientific. It is time that the world learned the lessons of Aswan. You don’t need a dam to be saved.
51. The third sentence of paragraph 1 implies that _____.
[A] people would be happy if they shut their eyes to reality
[B] the blind could be happier than the sighted
[C] over-excited people tend to neglect vital things.
[D] fascination makes people lose their eyesight
[答案] C
[解题思路]
第一段第三句话是“But to be fascinated is also, sometimes, to be blind”,意思就是“但使人着迷的同时也就造成了人们的盲目”。A选项显然不符合原文的意思,可是首先排除。B选项误把原文中的blind理解为“瞎的”,但这个词语在这里的意思是“盲目的”,因此可以排除B和D选项。C是正确选项,因为人们在fascinated的时候都会over-excited,因此选项的表述符合原文的意思。
[题目译文]
第一段第三句暗示了 。
[A] 如果人们对现实视而不见,他们会感到幸福
[B] 盲人可能比有视力的人觉得更加幸福
[C] 过于激动的人们往往忽略了最重要的东西
[D] 对一些事物的着迷使得人们丧失了视力
