标题: LSAT 2004.12. section A
19. Columnist: Much of North America and western
Europe is more heavily forested and has less acid
rain and better air quality now than five decades
ago. Though this may be due largely to policies
advocated by environmentalists, it nonetheless
lends credibility to the claims of people who
reject predictions of imminent ecological doom
and argue that environmental policies that
excessively restrict the use of natural resources
may diminish the wealth necessary to adopt and
sustain the policies that brought about these
improvements.
Which one of the following, if true, most strengthens
the columnist’s reasoning?
(A) Nations sustain their wealth largely through
industrial use of the natural resources found
within their boundaries.
(B) The more advanced the technology used in a
nation’s industries, the greater is that nation’s
ability to devote a portion of its resources to
social programs.
(C) A majority of ecological disasters arise from
causes that are beyond human control.
(D) If a compromise between the proponents of
economic growth and the environmentalists had
been enacted rather than the current policies,
the environment would have seen significantly
less improvement.
(E) The concern demonstrated by a nation for the
health and integrity of its natural ecosystems
leads to an increase in that nation’s wealth.

the answer is A. I thought A is way out of scope...

森林覆盖多,酸雨少。虽然这主要因为环境保护者提倡的政策,但是,也是因为一些人的主张,这些人拒绝生态毁灭论,他们认为这种过多限制自然资源的使用的政策可能会减少财富,这些财富对于采用和维持政策是必要的。
situation: 不用自然资源,就没钱,没钱就没法实施和维持这些政策,没有这些政策,就没法改善生态。
A说维持财富主要是通过自然资源的使用,所以就是要用自然资源,加强原文。
