Whoever said that victory has many fathers and defeat is an orphan, surely had never heard of the World Trade Organization (WTO). In the case of the hapless multilateral trade body and its long suffering representatives, the total failure of the opening meeting of the so-called Millennium trade round has lots of people boasting of their role’in the violent physical struggle. Well. That’s just brilliant They are proud of being part of a movement that wants to wreck the most important engine of economic growth, prosperity and o-verall global rising living standards we have — the freedom of trade and movement of people and goods between nations.
The 135-members WTO is composed of sovereign governments wishing to further this goal and ease the settlement of international trade disputes. From the sounds emanating from Seattle, though, it would now seem the WTO has now replaced the Trilateral Commission and the Freemasons as candidate No. 1 to take o-ver the world.
Everybody has his favorite Seattle story. The city’s police chief will have plenty of time to think about his, having now resigned in disgrace over the loss of control of downtown Seattle. The Seattle business community may be more inclined to brood over theirs; the poor fools invested $ 9 million to attract the meeting to their fine city. What stands out more? I would nominate the union of steel workers who were marching in protest It’s an image that will boggle the mind for years to come.
The debate now is over just how effective this anti-globalist coalition will turn out.to be. In the heat of the moment, it always looks as though the world as we know it is coming to an end. But the overwhelming likelihood is that we have not actually seen a replay of the anti-Vietnam War movement, which had much clearer focus, obviously, though its consequences were far-reaching. How long, after all, can you protest a-gainst cheap imports when those same imports are all over your house?
No, the real reason for the disaster in Seattle is political, and reports coming out of the meeting point to President Clinton as a major culprit Which may be both good and bad. Taking the long view, other trade rounds have had difficult beginnings, too. It took years to get the Uruguay Round under way, which finally happened in 1986. Thankfully, we will soon be electing another president, and it should be someone whose actions match his rhetoric.
Still, it is a disgrace that the world’s greatest trading nation, i. e. the United States, is currently led by a man whose motivations are so narrowly political and egocentric that he has now wrecked any chance of entering the history books as a champion of free trade. [br] The author is obviously critical of President Clinton for______
选项
A、his failing to match his words with his actions.
B、his handling the matter in a wrong perspective.
C、his lacking historical knowledge about the WTO.
D、his overemphasizing the economic role of the WTO.
答案
B
解析
题干问:“很明显,作者批判克林顿总统是因为……”。第5自然段提到,西雅图会议失败的真正原因是政治方面造成的,来自于会议的报道显示克林顿总统是导致其失败的罪魁祸首,并且从第6自然段可以看出,作者批评了克林顿总统缺乏全面看待问题的能力。其立场导致了会议的失败,因此选项B“他处理问题的错误立场”为正确选项。而选项A“他言行不一”,选项C“他对于世界贸易组织缺乏历史性的知识”和选项D“他过分强调世界贸易组织的经济作用”都不是作者批评克林顿总统的原因。
