问题 The phrase "chipped away at" in the first paragraph probably means [br] Which of the following can best summarize the passage?
选项 A、The reform of postal services is undergoing in Europe.
B、Protectionism hampers the reform of Europe’s postal services.
C、Monopolies of postal services are to be broken up.
D、The European market of postal services is open to competition.
答案 B
解析 本题是主旨题。文章开篇提及“邮政业改革也成为一个敏感的话题”，之后对该项改革进行了简要介绍，末句指出：虽然立法已纳入议事日程，但有些国家仍然一如既往地持怀疑态度。第二段及第三段分析自由化进程进展缓慢的几个原因：技术问题，雇员人数问题，对市场开放的抵触，对书信的看重。第四、五、六段分别介绍了欧洲各国对改革持有的不同态度。最后两段试图打消“邮政业在职人员担心竞争”的顾虑。可以看出本文的重点在于说明欧洲各国对于改革的担心，文章没有明确说明改革是否能够进行下去，而[C]和[D]则直接给出改革的结果，与文章不符，排除。[A]是一个笼统概念，范围过大，排除。[B]“贸易保护主义阻碍欧洲邮政业改革”言简意赅，说明改革受阻的原因，符合全文主旨，故为答案。
