问题 Which of the following statements about the Italian cargo ship is CORRECT?
News Item 3
    British and American naval forces have taken control of an Italian cargo ship hijacked by Somali pirates, and freed all 23 crew members. The ship was hijacked on Monday in the Indian Ocean, almost 1, 000km off the Somali coast.
    The cargo ship, the Montecristo, with a crew of seven Italians, 10 Ukrainians and six Indian nationals, was seized as piracy in the waters off Somalia was expected to see a new upsurge with the ending of the monsoon. Latest reports say 11 pirates were involved. The Ministry of Defense in London says the Fort Victoria and a US warship went to the aid of the hijacked cargo ship. As the British and American vessels approached, the pirates surrendered, and a Royal Navy party then carried out what’s known as a compliant boarding—meaning they met no resistance.

选项 A、All crew members on the ship are Italians.
B、All crew members on the ship were rescued.
C、It was hijacked near the Somali coast.
D、It was rescued by the British and Italian navy.

答案 B

解析 根据句(4)可知,英美海军控制住了被索马里海盗劫持的意大利货船,并将船上的23名船员全部解救,故答案为[B]。
