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、Good reporting should be used as a condition to increase catch.
B、We should concentrate on bringing conservation measures to support sustainable fishing.
C、The US bigeye quota should be lifted simply because it was following the rules.
D、We should maintain the strength of the tropical tuna measure and not to weaken the existing provisions.
答案
B
解析
态度观点题。根据题干中的“Ludwig Kumoru”可以定位到“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’”,B选项“我们应该集中采取保护措施,支持可持续捕捞”与原文相符,为正确答案。A选项“提供良好的报告应作为增加捕捞量的条件”与原文“Good reporting should not be used as a condition to increase catch”的表述相反,即为错误选项。C选项“不应该仅仅因为美国遵守规则就取消其‘大眼鲷’的配额”与原文“the US bigeye quota should not be lifted simply because it was following the rules”的表述相反,为错误选项。D选项“我们应该保持对热带金枪鱼保护措施的执行力度,而不是削弱现有的规定”是太平洋岛屿论坛渔业局的局长马努-图普罗斯的建议,属于张冠李戴,是错误选项。
