Read this passage from Alan Weisman's "The City Without Us":

English
1 answer:
Setler [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Working against the natural tendencies of the environment leads to long-term consequences.

Explanation:

In the first paragraph, the theme of green literature is evidenced when the writer references the damage to New York City's topography due to the need to build deep underground subways that double as bomb shelters.

In the second passage, the imagery used by the writer gives a clearer picture of the damage that was done to the environment.

In the first passage, the potential hazard arises because sewer lines have to be pumped uphill with subways below them.

If there is an earthquake, for instance, the entire structure comes crashing down.

In the second passage, the damage was already done, leaving Norwegians with the problem of how to create soils upon which plant fauna could thrive. Had they, managed the tree population by planting more than they were cutting, they probably would have avoided the "<em>green problem".</em>

Cheers
