问题 What can be inferred about the flooding problem in U. S. from the passage?
Which one of the following is NOT true according to paragraph 2?
选项 A、The reasons leading to flood is discussed in this paragraph.
B、Less deaths are caused by floods in the last few decades.
C、Better warning systems helped in reducing the life losses in floods.
D、The improvement of technologies greatly reduce the economic losses caused by floods.
答案D
解析 考查细节。A，B和C项都是从文中信息进行改写设计的答案，都是正确的陈述，所以和题目中要求我们选出不正确的选项这一要求是不符合的，而D项认为“技术的改进大大了减少了洪水造成的经济损失”，这一问题在原文中也有相关论述，但原文是这么说的“Economic losses have continued to rise due to increased urbanization and coastal development.”，也就是说，因为城市化进程的加快导致城市人口增长，再加上沿海地区城市的发展，使得洪水造成的经济损失不仅没有减小，反而增大了。D选项的分析貌似合理，和这里的意思恰恰是相反的，是不正确的论述，是我们应该选择的答案。
