问题 Who are in favor of raising off price? [br]  
Finance ministers from the industrial countries are turning up the political pressure on OPEC, calling on the cartel to raise production to bring prices down, when it holds a formal meeting in just under two weeks. At that meeting in Beirut it will decide whether to go along with Saudi Arabia’ s intention of raising output. Much tums on the decision. Oil prices are not as high in real terms now as they were after the Yom Kippur war thirty years ago, or later wars in the Middle East, when high oil prices caused global recessions. All the same, finance ministers in the oil coarsening countries say the recent rise in oil prices has caused difficulty. Firstly, high fuel prices are invuiably politically painful. Britain has suffered protests by motorists in the past. Americans are complaining about gas at the pumps above two dollars a gallon. Higher oil prices also act like a tax on economies, slowing growth and perhaps rekindling inflation.

选项 A、Wars in the Middle East.
B、Economy recovery.
C、Political and economical sufferings.
D、Heavier taxes.

答案 C

解析 此题是推理判断题,根据文中“Firstly,high fuel prices are invariably politically painful...Higher oil prices also act like a tax on economies,slowing growth and perhaps rekindling inflation.”可知油价上涨的结果是给石油输入大国带来政治上和经济上的危害,因此选C。新闻最后一句意为油价上涨有如征税的作用,减缓经济发展速度,并可能重新导致通货膨胀,而不是说会导致更多的税,因此D、错误。invariably不变地,总是;rekindle重新点燃,使复苏;inflation通货膨胀
