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 calling on OPEC to be an anti-imperialist organization. He went on to describe Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, the jailed Marxist fighter, as a good friend. Venezuelan-bom 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、To cut petroleum output.
B、To fight against imperialism.
C、To help his good friend.
D、To promote the international exchanges.
答案
B
解析
新闻后半部分出现了一个焦点人物,即委内瑞拉总统Hugo Chavez,他发表了政治意味浓厚的演讲,号召石油输出国组织应该成为一个反对帝国主义的组织(be an anti-imperialist organization),因此正确选项是B项。
