B
I find it annoying and funny when I think about how we use protective or decorative wrappings " (装饰性包装)in this country.
When I come home from the supermarket and start to unpack, I am always shocked at the lay-ers of wrappings we cover our food with.
There is hardly anything we buy that doesn " t come in at least two wrappings, and then several of them are gathered by the shop assistant and put into a small bag. Then several of the small bags are grouped together and put into a big bag. If you have several big bags with small bags in them, they give you a cardboard box to put the packages-in-the-little-bags-in-the-big-bags in.
A lot of things we buy wouldn " t really need any protective wrapping at all. The skin of an or-ange protects an orange pretty well for most of its natural life , but we aren " t satisfied with what na-ture has given it. We wrap them in plastic or put them in a net bag, and then in a paper bag. The orange inside the skin, inside the plastic which is in the paper bag, must wonder where it is.
A box of biscuits often has waxed paper(蜡纸) next to the biscuits, a cardboard box holding the food and then a decorative wrapping around it.
A relative of ours bought a new sofa recently because she liked the fine leather (皮革)it was covered with. She liked it so much she didn " t want it to get dirty, so she bought a cloth cover to put over it.
We may never again see the leather she" s protecting.
60. According to the author, the use of protective wrappings_______- .
[A] can be wasteful and unnecessary
[B] makes everything look funny
[C]gives people more work to do
[D] is a practice against natural life请帮忙给出正确答案和分析,谢谢!
参考答案
正确答案:A
参考译文B当我想到在这个国家我们如何使用保护性或者装饰性包装时,我觉得很令人恼火,也很可笑。从超市回家开始拆包装时,我总是惊讶于食物包装的层次。我们所买的东西几乎都至少有两层包装,一些东西被店员集合放进一个小袋子里,然后几个小袋子又集合到一起放进一个大袋子里。如果你有一些里面放着小袋子的大袋子,他们又会给你一个纸箱把这些大袋子套小袋子套包装的东西放进去。我们所买的许多东西其实根本不需要保护性包装。橘皮可以保护橘子大部分自然生命,但我们不满足它的自然作用,我们把它们放进塑料袋或者网袋或者纸袋里面。塑料袋里面的被纸裹着的带皮的橘子肯定在想这是什么啊。一盒饼干经常用蜡纸包,外面再用纸盒包,最外面还有装饰性包装。我们的一个亲戚最近买了一个沙发,因为她喜欢包沙发的好皮革。她非常喜欢它,不想把它弄脏,因此她买了布套罩住沙发。我们大概再也看不到她所保护的皮革了。60.A【精析】推理题。从整篇文章推知,作者认为包装是不必要的,是对资源的浪费,橘子的例子更为明显。故选A。
