问题 What cows constitutes high percentage in the total cows butchered each year? [br] The phrase "let the American beef industry off the hook"( Line 2, Para. 4    most probably means ______.

选项 A、the American beef industry determined to do something .
B、the American beef industry got out of the difficult situation
C、the American beef industry made people interested in their products
D、the American beef industry got what they needed and wanted

答案 B

解析 let sb. off the hook是一个词组,意思是“让某人摆脱困境”。文中我们可以根据上下文推断出这个词组的意思,第三段提到美国的牛肉出口在许多国家和地区被禁,于是后文美国农业部声称感染疯牛病的那只牛是来自加拿大的,本以为这样可以使美国的牧业有所复苏,但是这并未让美国的牛肉出口业摆脱困境。而且这对加拿大来说也不是好消息。其它几个选项都是hook在别的词组中意思,而且这些意思在这里与文意不符。美国牛肉出口业已经做了努力,所以说它决定做些什么,与文意不符,故可排除A;美国牛肉出口业让人们对自己的产品感兴趣,与文意不符,故可排除C;美国牛肉出口业得到了它们想要的和所需的,与文意不符,故可排除D。
