The following details are the reactions to the huge increases in oil company profits EXCEPT [br]
When the top U.S. oil companies announced huge increases in profits this week, many consumer advocates cried foul. At a time when American motorists are paying record-level prices for gasoline, some in the U.S. Congress think the oil company profits should be scrutinized closely. The U.S. Senate Finance Committee is seeking tax return information on top U.S. oil companies from the Internal Revenue Service and some politicians are calling for a windfall profits tax. [29]Of course, oil companies oppose such a move, citing similar or even higher profit increases in other industries, such as pharmaceuticals, that have not caused an uproar. [30]Oil industry analysts, however, say a windfall profits tax might be counterproductive. Bob Tippee, editor of Houston-based Oil and Gas Journal, says large oil company profits could benefit consumers in the end.
选项
A、They think a windfall profits tax might work.
B、They think consumers will finally benefit from the large oil company profits.
C、They think a windfall profits tax is good for oil industry.
D、They think a windfall profits tax should also be imposed on pharmaceuticals industry.
答案
B
解析
新闻提到,石油分析家说征收暴利税可能达不到预期的目标,而石油工业的高利润最终会让消费者受益。故选项B为正确答案。
