Large modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who inhabit them. City-dwellers are obliged by their environment to adopt a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and rhythm of nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence in a large city that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are at a premium(珍贵). Tall buildings blot out the sun. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere.
Even the distinction between day and night is lost. The flow of traffic goes on unceasingly and the noise never stops.
It’s not easy to see much difference between day and night because ______.
选项
A、city-dwellers are obliged to adopt a wholly unnatural way of life
B、the sun was hidden from view by tall buildings
C、the noise made by traffic never stops
D、large modern cities are too big to control
答案
B
解析
本题为细节推理题。最后一段说“Even the distinction between day and night is lost”,白天和黑夜的区别都没有了,为什么?再看上一段作者指出,城市里“Tall buildings blot out the sun”,高楼遮住了太阳,由此可推断B选项正确。
