Ⅳ阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
Each year, backed up by a growing anti-consumerist
movement, people are using the holiday season to call on us all
to shop less.
Driven by concerns about resource exhaustion, over recent
years environmentalists have increasingly turned their sight on
our “consumer culture”, with groups such as The Story of Stuff
and Buy Nothing New Day growing as a movement that
increasingly blames all our ills on our desire to shop.

We clearly have a growing resource problem. The products
we make, buy and use are often linked to the destruction of
our waterways, biodiversity, climate and the land on which
millions of people live, but to blame these issues on Christmas
shoppers is misguided, and puts us in the old trap of blaming
individuals for what is a systematic problem.
While we complain about environmental destruction over
Christmas, environmentalists often forget what the holiday
season actually means for many people.

In fact, for most, rather than an add-on to an already heavy
shopping year, Christmas is likely the only time of year they
have the opportunity to spend on friends and family, or even
just to buy the necessities needed for modern life.
This is particularly true for Boxing Day, often laughed at by
anti-consumerists the most. While we may look down on the
queues in front of the shops, for many, those sales provide the
chance to buy things they've needed all year. As journalist Leigh
Phillips argues, “This is one of the few times of the year that
1

单 元 小 测
people can even hope to afford such ‘luxuries’, the Christmas
presents their kids are asking for, or just an appliance that
works.”
Indeed, the richest 7% of people are responsible for 50% of
greenhouse gas emissions. This becomes particularly harmful
when you take account of our consumption “problem” anyway.
Why are environmentalists attacking these individuals, while
ignoring people like Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, who
has his own £1.5bn yacht with a missile defence system?

Anyway, anti-consumerism has become a movement of
wealthy people talking down to the working class about their
life choice, while ignoring the real cause of our environmental
problem. It is no wonder no one is changing their behaviour—
or that environmental destruction continues without becoming
any less severe.
