阅读理解-It can be inferred from the passage that_____.

　　Excerpt 1　　The climate of Earth is changing.Climatologists are confident that over the past century, the global average surface temperature has increased by about half a degree Celsius.This warming is thought to be at least partly the result of human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels and the clearing of forests for agriculture.As the global population grows and national economies expand, the global average temperature is expected to continue increasing by an additional 1.0 to 3.5℃ by the year 2100.　　Excerpt 2　　Global warming may or not be the great environmental crisis of the 21st century, but regardless of weather it is or isn’t we won’t do much about it.We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn-sounding commitments to avoid it.But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.　　Excerpt 3　　Since the early eighties we have been only too aware of the devastating effects of large-scale environmental pollution.Such pollution is generally the result of poor government planning in many developing nations or the short-sighted, selfish policies of the already industrialized countries which encourage a minority of the world’s population to squander the majority of its natural resources.　　Excerpt 4　　Even if we were to magically stop all greenhouse-gas emissions tomorrow the impact on global climate would continue for decades.Delay will simply make the problem worse.The fact is that some of us are doing quite well the way things are.In the developed world prosperity has been built on 150 years of cheap fossil fuels.　　Material progress has been linked to energy consumption.Today 75 percent of all the world’s energy is consumed by a quarter of the world’s population.The average rich world resident adds about 3.2 tons of CO2 yearly to the atmosphere, more than four times the level added by each Third World citizen.The U.S., with just 7 percent of the global population, is responsible for 22 percent of global warming.　　Excerpt 5　　Humanity.Success lies in the force of imagination, in imagining what would happen if we fail to act.Although many living in cold regions would welcome the global-warming effect of a warmer summer, few would cheer the arrival of the subsequent tropical diseases, especially where there had been none.

阅读理解

A.the developing world has decided to increase its energy consumption

B.a third-world citizen adds less than a ton of CO2 yearly to the atmosphere

C.the world climate would soon gain its balance if we stopped greenhouse-gas emissions

D.future prosperity of the world is dependent on cheap fossil fuels

我个人认为这个应该是：B

解析：根据Excerpt 4第二段中的“The average rich world resident adds about 3.2 tons of CO2 yearly to the atmosphere, more than four times the level added by each Third World citizen.”可知，第三世界国家每人每年向大气中排放的二氧化碳不足3.2吨的四分之一，也就是不到一吨的二氧化碳。故B项为正确答案。
