Which of the following is NOT true?
What President Donald Trump called a "breakthrough" on trade occurred when European Commission President Jean-Claude Junker sat down with Mr. Trump at the White House for a discussion that has eased tensions between the world’s two largest trading partners.
On July 25 the two leaders agreed to work together toward eliminating tariffs and other trade barriers on all industrial goods other than cars. They also promised to work to reduce barriers and increase trade in services, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and medical products, as well as soybeans.
In addition, the two leaders pledged greater strategic cooperation on energy, with the European Union seeking to expand its imports of liquefied natural gas from the United States in order to help diversify its energy supply.
At a news conference after their meeting, President Trump outlined these areas of accord and noted too that the two men agreed to launch a dialogue on standards, in order to increase trade across all product sectors, and to reduce bureaucratic obstacles to trade. And they agreed to work with like-minded partners, including by reforming the World Trade Organization, to address unfair trading practices, including intellectual property theft, forced technology transfer, industrial subsidies, distortions created by state-owned enterprises, and overcapacity.
President Trump noted that the general outline of what was agreed to by the United States and the EU is a commitment to move toward three zeros: zero tariffs, zero non-tariff trade barriers, and zero subsidies. The idea is to level the playing field.
President Trump characterized the meeting as the start of "a new phase in the relationship between the United States and the European Union—a phase of close friendship; of strong trade relations in which both of us will win; of working better toward global security and prosperity."
With a 1-trillion-dollar bilateral trade relationship, the U.S. and the EU have the largest economic relationship anywhere in the world, President Trump noted.
"We want to further this trade relationship to the benefit of all American and European citizens."
选项
A、The United States and the EU are two largest trade partners.
B、There have been tensions between them.
C、Now there is a breakthrough on trade between them.
D、They have issued a joint communique.
答案
D
解析
本题需要特别注意的是NOT一词。很多考生都因为审题不仔细,结果选错了。本题问的是“下面哪一个选项是错误的?”,这就需要我们利用排除法。原文告诉我们,美国和欧盟这两个世界上最大的贸易伙伴(A)在贸易问题上出现了摩擦,造成了紧张局面(B),因此,双方坐下来谈判,这在美国总统特朗普眼里是一大突破(C)。然而,他们并没有发表联合公报(D),因此,答案是D。
