问题 Which of the following statements is true according to what you hear?
  
Mr. Wen said government would aim for a growth rate of 7 percent this year, considerably slower than the 9.1 percent pace recorded for 2003. He said the government would reduce the issuance of state bonds intended to finance construction by about $3.6 billion, or 25 percent, and would also restrain lending and investment that has led to "redundant construction in some industries and regions."
At the Earth Summit in Johannesburg over a year ago, Israel and Jordan agreed to look into building a "Red-Dead" pipeline that would run 320 km along their rugged desert border. Dubbed the "Peace Conduit", the canal would be the biggest Israel-Jordanian joint venture since their 1994 peace treaty. Israeli officials cite the importance of cooperation with former Arab enemies as one of the main reasons they favor the Red-Dead canal over an older "Med-Dead" proposal to take water from the Mediterranean Sea, which would not involve Jordan.

选项 A、Because they wanted to cooperate with their former Arab enemies.
B、Because the Red-Dead canal would run across the desert.
C、Because the Med-Dead canal would be much longer.
D、Because they didn’t want to take water from the Mediterranean Sea.

答案A

解析 因果关系的判断。根据题干中关键词the“Red—Dead”canal和“Med-Dead”proposal可定位原文相关部分为“Israeli officials cite the importance of cooperation with former Arabenemies as one of the main reasons they favor the Red-Dead canal over an older‘Med-Dead’proposal…”,其中信号词“reasons”说明该词前后部分为因果关系,既然该词后部分为题干内容,显然该词前部分的内容应为正确答案。因此,选项A的说法是正确的。
