Which of the following is true about the catches of Pacific area? [br]
Pacific island nations have vowed to oppose US efforts to increase its catch limit in the world’s largest tuna fishery, saying the proposal does nothing to improve sustainable fishing. The United States is expected to try to increase its quota for bigeye tuna at a meeting of the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC) taking place in Honolulu this Week. The meeting brings together 26 nations to determine fishing policy in the Pacific, which accounts for almost 60 percent of the global tuna catch, worth about $6. 0 billion annually. It is mostly made up of small island nations but also includes so-called "distant-water nations" that come from a far afield as Europe, China, the United States, South Korea and Japan to fish Pacific tuna. Island nations regularly accuse them of being reluctant to curb the lucrative industry in the interests of long-term conservation.
President Donald Trump’s administration will push this year to catch more bigeye — one of the most sought-after species of tuna for sashimi — as a reward for complying with the commission’s monitoring rules.
All fishing fleets are supposed to carry independent fisheries observers on at least five percent of their boats as means of ensuring quotas are not exceeded and to collect accurate data. However, most nations aside from the United States ignore the monitoring requirement.
Ludwig Kumoru, chief executive of a Pacific island grouping called the Parties to the Nauru Agreement, said the US bigeye quota should not be lifted simply because it was following the rules. "Good reporting should not be used as a condition to increase catch, "
he said Monday. "We should instead concentrate on bringing conservation measures that actually support sustainable fishing. "
The head of the Pacific Islands Forum’s fisheries agency FFA, Manu Tupou-Roosen, said her aim was to "maintain the strength of the tropical tuna measure (protections) and not to weaken the existing provisions".
选项
A、Most nations aside from the United States don’t ignore the monitoring requirement.
B、Most nations include the United States ignore the monitoring requirement.
C、The United States doesn’t ignore the monitoring requirement.
D、Most countries attach importance to the monitoring requirement.
答案
C
解析
语义理解判断题。根据原文“most nations aside from the United States ignore the monitoring requirement”可知,除了美国之外,大多数国家都忽视了这一监测要求。C选项“美国没有忽视这一监测要求”与原文相符,为正确选项。A选项“除了美国之外,大多数国家都没有忽视这一监测要求”,说法与原文相反,因此A项错误。B选项“包括美国在内的大多数国家都无视这一监测要求”和D选项“大多数国家重视监测要求”,表述与原文不符,均为错误选项。
