参考解析
解析:
由原文第三段中的“...cell phones disturb people’s enjoyment of our national parks. In their view, cell phone towers are an eyesore, and they’d rather hear the sound of birds than the ring of an incoming call”可知,手机会干扰人们欣赏美景,在一些人看来,手机信号发射塔非常碍眼,而且他们也更愿意听到鸟叫声而不是来电铃声。因此eyesore在这里表示“一些不愉快的,人们不想看的东西”。因此本题应选A项。
