The United States says it is concerned about the Islamic State (IS) group attracting recruits and acquiring resources in North Africa. The forces fighting against Islamic State in Syria and Iraq are retaking ground and oil fields. While this is seen as a success, one U.S. government official says there is concern about recruits coming from Libya and parts of Egypt.
   Anti-IS fighters in the northern part of Iraq are taking back territory and oil revenue. So IS looks for new sources of income.
   Iraq’s largest oil factory was taken back from Islamic State in October.
   The U.S. president says Islamic State has lost 40 percent of the area it once controlled in Iraq.
   In Syria, Islamic State controls about 80 percent of the oil fields. But one U.S. official says production is slow and the group is not earning as much money from oil as it once did.
1. What’s the concern for U.S. government according to the news?
2. What do we learn about Islamic State from the news report?

选项 A、The IS is taking back the largest oil factory in Iraq.
B、The IS is attracting recruits in North Africa
C、The IS is controlling most areas in North Africa
D、The IS is earning money from the oil in Iraq.

答案 B

解析 新闻开篇就提到,伊斯兰国组织(Islamic State group)在北非招募人员和夺取资源(attracting recruits and acquiring resources),这使得美国政府非常担忧,B项复现attracting recruits,为答案。A“IS夺回伊拉克最大的油厂”和D“IS在用伊拉克的石油来赚钱”都是新闻提到的事实,但不是美国的担忧所在,属于答非所问。C“IS占据北非大部分地区”没有在新闻中提到。
