分析 一名年轻的游客1930年在爬法国的阿尔卑斯山.这是一块没有生物的土地,在这片土地的中央,有一个老人.
他的背上是一包种子.男人想要在地上挖一个洞.然后他将一粒种子放进去.他一次又一次的反复这样做.老人告诉游客:"我已经种植了超过10,000颗种子了.或许有十分之一会成长."老人的妻子和儿子已经去世,这是他选择如何度过晚年."我想要做些有用的事情"他说.
游客二十年后再回到这里,让他惊奇的是,土地被一个美丽的森林覆盖着,鸟儿在唱歌,动物在玩耍,四处是野花,游客站在那里想起那里曾经是毫无生机的.因为有人关心,现在那里是一片美丽的森林.

解答 46.答案:D,细节题,由第一段第二句:"It was a piece of land without living things"可知是毫无生机的,故正确答案为D.
