The South Korean businessman who founded the Daewoo Industrial Group has been arrested on his return home after six years on the run. [3]Kim Woo Choong fled South Korea after his business empire collapsed with debts of more than $70 billion. He’s accused of fraud and embezzlement. Kim Woo Choong arrived on an early morning flight from Vietnam and was immediately arrested by prosecutors. [4]He faces an array of embezzlement and fraud charges, including the illegal diversion of $20 billion overseas. He also faces more than 40 civil suits. He was caught at the airport by reporters and protestors, some of whom lost millions when the Daewoo business group collapsed 20 years ago. Kim Woo Choong fled abroad shortly afterwards and is reported to have spent most of his time in France.
    3.How much was the debt for the Daewoo Industrial Group?
    4.Why was Kim Woo Choong arrested at the airport?
选项 A、More than $17 billion.
B、More than $17 million.
C、More than $70 billion.
D、More than $70 million.
答案 C
解析 新闻中提列Kim Woo Choong在他的商业帝国倒下后，背负700亿美元的债务后逃离韩国，故答案为C项。新闻中出现了两个数字70和20，单位用的都是billion。听力中涉及数字的另外一个难点就是相似音的辨别，选项中出现17作为混淆项正是在考查我们的辨音能力。
