What is the most appropriate title for the passage? [br]
In early September, Trinidad’s state-owned sugar company made all of its 9,200 employees redundant. Though most are Indo-Trinidadians and supporters of the island’s truculent opposition party, there were no protests. The workers got redundancy pay totaling 115 million dollars, the offer of retraining, and the chance to continue growing cane as independent farmers in plots on the company’s 31,000 hectares of farmland.
Trinidad, booming on oil and gas, has plenty of new jobs. Jamaica’s stagnant economy is another story. The government privatized its sugar factories in 1994, but agreed to take them back four years later. Hit by floods and droughts, this year’s sugar crop was a disaster. A shutdown might be greeted with riots by the 7,000 sugar workers and 8,000 cane farmers of the country. Barbados, prosperous and stable, has a different problem. Its neat cane fields are far more attractive to tourists than the eroded scrubland of Antigua, which stopped growing sugar 30 years ago.
选项
A、The sugar industry varies in prosperity among producing countries in Latin America.
B、World sugar producers all suffer from short supply of canes.
C、The world sugar industry is undergoing fatal depression.
D、Major sugar producers have adopted different strategies to combat the sluggish economy.
答案
D
解析
主旨题。题干要求掌握本文的主要内容。这需要应试者能够把握文章的脉络结构。本文从始至终没有主题句,只是介绍了Trinidad,Jamaica,Barbados和Antigua几个国家面临制糖业衰退时采取的各种措施,将其大意概括,发现选项D的内容与原文相符,因此该项是正确的。
