What is Anthony Horowitz famous for? [br]
The character of Sherlock Holmes was originally created by the Scottish writer Arthur Conan Doyle, who featured him in four novels and more than 50 short stories. After his death, his son Adrian wrote several stories featuring the famous Victorian detective, but critics say he was never that popular. But it’s the first time that the Arthur Conan Doyle estate has officially asked an author to write a new novel. He has been named as Anthony Horowitz and is best known for his Alex Rider children’s series.
The United Nations is asking for $6. 5 billion in aid to help the millions of Syrians forced from their homes by more than two and a half years of fighting. U. N. humanitarian chief Valerie A-mos said $2. 3 billion of that amount is needed for those displaced in Syria. The U. N. estimates about 40 percent of Syria’s population has been forced from their homes by the fighting. The U. N. asked for $4. 5 billion to help Syrians last year, but says it only received about two-thirds of that amount from donors. Meanwhile, the U. N. is flying humanitarian aid from Iraq to northern Syria, where people affected by the fighting are dealing with harsh winter conditions.
选项
A、$6. 5 billion.
B、$4. 5 billion.
C、$3 billion.
D、$2. 3 billion.
答案
C
解析
根据新闻中提到的“The U.N.asked for $4.5 billion to help Syrians last year,but says it only received about two—thirds of that amount from clonors”,可知去年联合国要求获得45亿美元来帮助叙利亚人,但实际上只从捐献者那里获得该数额的2/3,即30亿。因此答案选C。
