问题 The troubled U. S. -Canada relationship might be fixed by______. [br]  
The relationship between the U. S. and Canada should be as placid as Lake Ontario on a calm summer day. The border is undefended. Their peoples seem like cousins. Each is the other’s largest single trading partner. Yet there has been serious friction between the two neighbors in recent years — friction that might now be eased by the surprise election of a new Canadian Prime Minister.
ISIS takes in more than $ 1 million per day in extortion and taxes. Salaries of Iraqi government employees are taxed up to 50% ; companies may have their contracts and revenue taxed up to 20%. That revenue base will help ISIS survive even if its oil business is crippled.

选项 A、Salaries of civil servants.
B、Revenue taxes.
C、Oil business.
D、The economics of ISIS.

答案 D

解析 原文指出ISIS通过税收和勒索、强抢获得收入,在石油生意受挫的情况下,依然可以生存。总结一下,本段主旨是ISIS的经济状况。ISIS,全称Islamic State of Iraq and al Shams,伊拉克和大叙利亚伊斯兰国,阿拉伯国家和部分西方国家称为“达伊沙” (DAESH),是一个自称建国的活跃在伊拉克和叙利亚的极端恐怖组织。
