The United States has the largest economy in the world (32). The size of an economy is usually described in terms of the Gross Domestic Product. The Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, is the value of all goods and services produced in a country in a year. In 2004, the United States had a GDP estimated at close to 12 million million dollars. What percentage of that was agriculture (32) (33)? The government says just 9/10 of one percent (33). Farm workers make up an even smaller percentage of American labor: 7/10 of one percent.
In 2004, almost 20 percent came from industry--and almost 80 percent came from services. The number of farms continues to decrease in America, whereas farm earnings have risen to record levels in recent years. Agricultural productivity continues to increase because of new technology and methods(34). But the Agriculture Department estimates that 9 percent of farm income last year came from government payments. That number is expected to decrease in the future.
Exports have provided American farmer farmers with an average of about 25 percent of their money for the last fifteen years. Canada and Mexico are two of the three biggest markets for American farmers. In fact, in 2002, Canada replaced Japan for the first time as the top buyer of American agricultural exports(35). The Department of Agriculture says exports to the European Union are slowing. But exports to other countries within the Americas and to Asia are growing.
选项
A、Canada, Japan and Mexico.
B、Japan, Canada and Asia.
C、Japan, the European Union and Asia.
D、Canada, Mexico and Europe.
答案
A
解析
从题目选项中可以得知,该题可能考查某些具体国家的名称,听音过程中应该仔细甄别。可以从“Canada and Mexico are two of the three biggest markets for American farmers. In fact,in 2002,Canada replaced Japan for the first time as the top buyer of American agricultural exports(加拿大和墨西哥是美国农业出口三大市场中的两个,而其实在2002年,加拿大取代日本第一次成了美国农业最大的出口对象)”得知,其中具体提到了这三个国家,其余国家为干扰项,故可推测出正确答案。
