Leaders in Paris negotiating a climate change agreement missed their deadline Friday. Representatives from 195 countries have spent two weeks in Paris trying to reach agreement at the United Nations climate talks. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius extended the deadline until Saturday when the deadline could not be met. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said a lot of progress has been made, but he said, some "very difficult" issues must be resolved. He met with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius Friday after what sources said was a hard night of negotiations.
The biggest sticking points are financial aid and the long-term goal. The latest draft of the agreement calls for "the widest possible cooperation by all countries" to cut emission of greenhouse gases. Scientists say those gases are warming the planet and changing the climate to an extreme. A major point of disagreement has been who will pay for reducing these emissions. Representatives of 134 developing countries objected to conditions suggested by richer industrialized nations. Richer countries— like the U.S.—have produced most of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Those gases are blamed for rising temperatures on the planet. Poorer nations want developed ones to pay for measures that arrest pollution.
5.When was the original deadline of the climate talks?
6. What are the biggest sticking points of the climate talks?
7. Why do poorer countries want developed ones to pay for reducing these emissions?
选项
A、They didn’t meet the deadline.
B、They suggested conditions.
C、They produced most emissions.
D、They could provide technology.
答案
C
解析
新闻的最后部分提到,美国等较富裕国家排放了最多的温室气体,所以贫穷国家想让发达国家支付这些费用,因此选C。A“他们没有赶上截止日期”是所有与会国家都没有完成的事,不是本题考查的原因。B“他们提出了条款”,新闻中提到发展中国家反对发达国提出的条款,或许是因为条款于贫穷国家不利,但这不是穷国家想让发达国家支付费用的原因。D“他们可提供技术”未在新闻中提到。
