问题         Europe’s world status had drastically changed. Its individual nations, once great powers, were dwarfed—politically and militarily by the United States and the former Soviet Union, numerically by India and China, economically by the United States, Japan, and any new economic powers that might emerge. Europe’s empires had been widely separated; and yet, like the rest of the world’ s rich Northern Hemisphere, it could not shrug off the poor and hungry millions in the South. It is all the more reasonable, therefore, for European countries to come together—not merely to hold their own political and economic superpowers but also to maximize their power to meet their wider responsibilities in the world.
        20th-century Europe had witnessed and shared in extraordinarily rapid technological change. Computers, industrial robots and genetic engineering are only its most obvious recent examples. The splitting of the atom had vastly multiplied human’ s power to destroy itself. Jet aircraft, space travel and electronic telecommunications had revolutionized the sense of distance and scale. Radio and television, still more than the cinema, had become truly "massmedia",with satellites giving all broadcasts in the global range.
        But economic progress had not kept pace with technology; in a world of potential plenty and well-being, there were still both poverty and pollution. Political progress had been slower still. International cooperation was increasing, but the basic political unit remained the nation-state. That dated from an age when the fastest means of travel had been a galloping horse.
        This was why the founders of the EC, as Monnet said, were not concerned to make coalitions of states but to unite people. A united Europe along these lines, with common rules and democratic institutions, was in his eyes a pilot plant for a united world.
The author seems to______________.
选项 A、support the idea of a united Europe
B、favor making common rules for Europe
C、object to the coalitions of European states
D、love to see Europe not doing its duty for the world
答案A
解析 观点推断题。根据文章最后一段可推出，作者是持支持态度的，支持欧洲联合的观点。因此本题选A。
