【题目】 One thing you do not expect an oil minister to do is to block the development of his own country’s oil fields. But that is exactly what Alberto Acosta did when he was appointed Ecuador’s Oil Minister.
For a relatively poor country whose main income is from oil exports, this idea seemed like madness. Ecuador is not rich by economic (经济) standards, but in terms of the diversity of plant and animal life, it is one of the richest places on Earth. For this, scientists studied trees in the Yasuni National Park in Ecuador’s undamaged rain forest, and they found over 650 different species (物种) of tree in just one acre — more than the total number in all of the US and Canada combined. Mr. Acosta said he would rather the oil companies did not destroy these natural riches. His idea is to leave the oil reserves beneath Yasuni Park untouched, in return for compensation of half their value, which will be done by the international society. The oil is worth more than $7 billion.
Ecuador is not the only country trying to get richer nations to pay for not exploiting (开发) their forests. Both Nigeria and Guatemala are hoping they will be able to make similar deals. A spokesperson for local environmental groups explained, “This is fantastic though the plan has met with problems, both from within Ecuador and from outside. If only people in developed countries appreciated that these forests absorb a lot of the CO2 that their industries produce. I just wish they would take a longer-term view of this problem. Protecting biodiversity and preventing climate change means temporary loss, otherwise, we will all be losers — with consequences I’d rather not even think about.”
【1】What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The total number of tree species.
B.Ecuador’s oil storage quantity.
C.Ecuador’s diversity in wildlife.
D.The undamaged rain forest.
【2】What was Mr. Acosta’s real aim?
A.Importing more oil.B.Protecting the environment.
C.Building more natural parks.D.Compensating the Yasuni Park.
【3】What will the international society do?
A.Guide companies to protect the oil.
B.Develop oil fields near the park.
C.Study the rain forest further.
D.Pay oil companies 3. 5 billion.
【4】What does the spokesperson indicate in the last paragraph?
A.Destroying nature means punishing ourselves.
B.Natural forests can stop climate change totally.
C.Developed countries will become losers.
D.It’s impossible to carry out Acosta’s plan.
