Question:
Refer to the passage given above. In the opening paragraph, the phrase "socially invisible" is used to convey that urban noise:
1.
is literally inaudible to most city dwellers.
2.
is deliberately concealed from the public by municipal authorities.
3.
is so constant that people no longer notice it or question its costs.
4.
affects only socially marginalised groups living near highways.
Correct Answer: is so constant that people no longer notice it or question its costs.
"Socially invisible" refers to noise being "so constant" that it escapes notice and regulation, even as its costs accumulate. It does not mean inaudible (a), concealed (b), or restricted to one group (d).
