标题: 急问
The population of Megacity, a sprawling metropolis in Remsland, has grown at a fairly steady rate for over a century.  A hundred years ago, poor sanitation in the city caused high mortality rates among the city's inhabitants, and what fueled the population increase was immigration from rural villages.  This immigration has continued and even increased.  Moreover, in recent decades, city sanitation has improved enormously.  Yet the city's population growth has not significantly accelerated.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain why the city's population growth rate has not changed?

(A) Mortality rates that were associated with poor sanitation in Megacity a hundred years ago were orders of magnitude higher than are mortality rates associated with vehicular traffic, which is currently a major cause of death in the city. 、
(B) For several decades, Megacity, as distinct from the countryside, has had a steadily declining birth rate.
(C) Cities smaller than Megacity have also experienced sustained population growth.
(D) The great majority of immigrants to Remsland settle in Megacity, at least initially.
(E) Megacity has long offered better employment prospects than most rural areas.

这道题目选B对不对?

楼主你再认真看看A,它说的是因为卫生条件造成的死亡在一年多年前比车祸造成的死亡意义上更深远,然后又补充说明,现在很多人因为车祸死掉,但是这跟题目并无直接关系。现在很多人因为车祸死掉,这并不能说明这个城市为啥人口上不去。

楼主你可以这么理解,这个城市里面死亡原因排行第一的是因为车祸,但是这个跟人口增长没有直接关系。用下common sense也可以理解,要是这个城市人口上不去是因为车祸……那也太可怕了吧。
