问题 The Bank of America is accountable for______. [br]  
The agreement involving one of America’s biggest banks makes a survey brought by the US Justice Department.(1)It resolves lengthy argument over the extent to which Bank of America misled the buyers of its mortgage-backed investments.
    This is the latest effort by authorities in the US to hold Wall Street accountable for the bad conduct that led to the financial crisis.(2)And the sums involved here are much larger than the $13bn paid by another bank, JP Morgan, to resolve a similar matter.
    Even though the penalty exceeds Bank of America’s entire profits last year, this deal brings a measure of closure. The bank has already paid tens of billions of dollars to settle cases related to the financial crisis, but this was seen as the biggest remaining legal hurdle.

选项 A、less than 13 billion dollars
B、13 billion dollars
C、tens of billions of dollars
D、much larger than 13 billion dollars

答案 B

解析 本题设题点在数字信息处。根据句(2)可知,该事件涉及的款项远远多于摩根大通银行处理类似事件支付的130亿美元。由此可见,摩根大通银行为处理与此事件相似的一次经济危机支付了130亿美元,故[B]为正确答案。
