问题 Which of the following statements is NOT correct? [br]  
As Asia-Pacific leaders gather in the coming days for the annual summit under this region’s premier economic cooperation framework, hopes are running high that they will inject fresh vigor into regional economic integration.
Particularly, all eyes are on the Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific, FTAAP for short, an all-encompassing free trade vision for which the 21-member APEC forum is expected to hash out a roadmap.
       It is undeniable that to craft a free trade zone out of a region as vast and diverse as the Asia-Pacific is extremely cumbersome and time-consuming, yet the current trend of fragmentation and incoordination has turned the region’s trading system into a spaghetti bowl.
       The recent decade has witnessed a mushrooming of small and medium-sized Free Trade Agreements (FTA for short) in the Asia-Pacific. From the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) to the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), it is evident that Asia-Pacific economies are truly eager to open up to each other for the sake of mutual benefit and common development.
       However, due to a lack of information-sharing and transparency, such a multitude of varying and overlapping free trade mechanisms might eventually generate a myriad of complex or even contradictory rules governing regional trade, thus creating an even larger barriers for traders and investors.
       Thus it is high time that serious attention was paid to the FTAAP idea, which has been around for almost a decade. The overarching arrangement is intended to be open, inclusive and flexible, so as to accommodate all economies in the region and bridge trade deals both in being and in the making.
       As such a grand vision draws closer to reality, it is only natural for suspicions and noises to kick in. Some Western media have rushed to hype up a "China-U.S. rivalry" for leadership in the region’s mounting free trade drive. Allegations of this sort are groundless and betray their advocates’ obsession with confrontation or sensation. The FTAAP is by no means a "solo show" of China. Rather, it is the shared aspiration of all APEC members that will bring them a wealth of benefits.

选项 A、The regional economic cooperation has led to the success.
B、The regional cooperation is not developing in a proper manner.
C、Large-scaled FTAs such as TPP and RCEP have boosted development.
D、The development is slow because some economies refuse to open up.

答案 B

解析 语义的理解与判断。根据原文可知,目前亚太地区的情况是签订了众多区域性自由贸易协定,但由于信息没有共享以及不透明化,这些协定互相交叠甚至互相矛盾,有可能会造成大的负面影响。由此判断,本文叙述中没有表明区域性合作取得了成功,选项A错误,概括来说,其合作没有按照合适的方式进行,选项B与之相符。根据原文TPP和RCEP都是“small and medium-sized”即中小型协定,选项C称其为大型协定,该选项错误。选项D因果关系推测不正确,原文表示各国“eager to open up to each other”,即造成发展不协调的原因不是各国不愿对外开放。因此,本题答案为选项B。
