"Avoid the rush-hour" must be the slogan of large cities the world over. Whenever you look, it’s people, people, people. The streets are so crowded, there is hardly room to move; when a bus arrives, it’s so full, it can’t take any more passengers. The extraordinary thing is not that people put up with (忍受,容忍) these conditions, but that they actually choose them in preference to anything else.
Large modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who inhabit them. It is possible to live such an air conditioned existence in a large city that you are barely conscious of the seasons. What is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. Even the distinction between day and night is lost.
The funny thing about it all is that you pay dearly for the "privilege" of living in a city. The demand for accommodation is so great that high rents must be paid for tiny flats which even country hens would scorn (拒绝接受;鄙视) to live in. Accommodation apart, the cost of living is very high. Just about everything you buy is likely to be more expensive than it would be in the country.
In addition to all these, city inhabitants live under constant threats. The crime rate in most cities is very high. If you think about it, they’re not really fit to live in at all. Can any one really doubt that the country is what man was born for and where he truly belongs?
What is the author’s attitude towards living in cities?
选项
A、Unconcerned.
B、Critic.
C、Sympathetic.
D、Envious.
答案
B
解析
本题问对于居住在城市作者持什么态度。全文主要讲了大城市的不利因素;交通拥挤,四季交替变化感觉不明显,犯罪率高等。根据文章末段倒数第二句If you think about it they’re not really fit to live in at all.(如果你想一下,它们一点也不适合居住。)可以判断作者对此持一种批评和不赞同的态度。
