As the railroads and the highways shaped the American West in the past centuries,
a new electrical generating (发电) and transmission (输送) system for the 21st century
will leave a lasting mark on the West, for better or worse. Much of the real
significance of railroads and highways is not in their direct physical effect on the
scenery, but in the ways that they affect the surrounding community. The same is true
of big solar plants and the power lines that will be laid down to move electricity
around.

The 19th century saw land grants (政府拨地) offered to railroad companies to build
the transcontinental railroads, leaving public land in between privately owned land.
In much of the West, some of the railroad sections were developed while others remained
undeveloped, and in both cases the landownership has presented unique challenges to
land management. With the completion of the interstate highway system, many of the
small towns, which sprang up as railway stops and developed well, have lost their
lifeblood and died.
Big solar plants and their power lines will also have effects far beyond their direct
footprint in the West. This is not an argument against building them. We need
alternative energy badly, and to really take advantage of it we need to be able to
move electricity around far more readily than we can now.
So trade- offs will have to be made. Some scenic spots will be sacrificed. Some species
(物种) will be forced to move, or will be carefully moved to special accommodations.
Deals will be struck to reduce the immediate effects.
The lasting effects of these trade-offs are another matter. The 21st century
development of the American West as an ideal place for alternative energy is going
to throw off a lot of power and money in the region. There are chances for that power
and money to do a lot of good. But it is just as likely that they will be spent wastefully
and will leave new problems behind, just like the railroads and the highways.
The money set aside in negotiated trade-offs and the institutions that control it
will shape the West far beyond the immediate footprint of power plants and transmission
lines. So let’s remember the effects of the railroads and the highways as we construct
these new power plants in the West.
1. What was the problem caused by the construction of the railways?
A. Small towns along the railways became abandoned.
