A

a circular city attached to the seabed

B

a home for international organizations

a monumental engineering task

参考答案

参考解析

解析：
文章末段指出如果一切进展顺利，Marinnation有望在21世纪20年代末建成，但直到那时是否有人愿意住在这样一个孤立的人工社区仍是一个富有争议的问题（an open question），因此D项描述与文章内容不符。A、C项在第二段有提及，而B项出现在第一段。

考题问答题Practice 1　　这似乎有点耸人听闻，其实道理很简单，一个人单独生活所消耗的自然资源大大超过两个人共同生活的人均消耗。例如，一间屋子本来可以住两人，现在只住一个，造房子消耗的资源就浪费了，水、电也是一样，所以说一加一小于二。家庭规模减小，意味着要养活同样多的人口，就要建立更多的家庭，城市规模也会不断扩大，周围一些物种的栖息地则会遭到严重破坏。　　虽然不能强迫单身的人为环保而结婚，但为了节约资源，我们至少可以尽量选择有利于环保的生活方式。

考题问答题Practice 6　　Perhaps the most striking quality of satiric literature is its freshness, its originality of perspective. Satire rarely offers original ideas. Instead, it presents the familiar in a new form. Satirists do not offer the world new philosophies. What they do is look at familiar conditions from a perspective that makes these conditions seem foolish, harmful, or affected. Satire jars us out of complacence into a pleasantly shocked realization that many of the values we unquestioningly accept are false. Don Quixote makes chivalry seem absurd; Brave New World ridicules the pretensions of science; A Modest Proposal dramatizes starvation by advocating cannibalism. None of these ideas is original. Chivalry was suspected before Cervantes,2 humanists objected to the claims of pure science before Aldous Huxley, and people were aware of famine before Swift. It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular. It was the manner of expression, the satiric method, that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they are aesthetically satisfying works of art, not because they are morally wholesome or ethically instructive.
