[3]OPEC has decided this was not the time for cutting petroleum output. Energy ministers here didn’t have the stomach to cut back production at a time when crude oil prices were reaching historic highs on the international exchanges. It was feared that cuts in the output would send prices even higher and reduce global economic growth. While nobody here seems surprised about oil output levels’ remaining the same, President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela managed to raise a few eyebrows among delegates when he held a highly politicized speech [4]calling on OPEC to be an anti-imperialist organization. He went on to describe llich Ramirez Sanchez, the jailed Marxist fighter, as a good friend. Venezuelan-born Ramirez, better known as Carlos the slave, led a terror attack against OPEC’s Vienna headquarters in 1975.
3.What did OPEC decide to do?
4.What was the purpose of Hugo Chavez’s speech?
选项
A、Raise the oil prize.
B、Cut back production.
C、Reduce global economic growth.
D、Remain the same level of output.
答案
D
解析
新闻中提到“……似乎没有人对石油产量保持不变而感到惊讶”,因此我们可以确定OPEC的决定是“保持不变的输出量”,故选D项。C项“减少经济增长”在原文有提到,但这是减少石油输出量造成的后果。A项“提高石油价格”和B项“减少石油产量”均没有在新闻中提到。
