W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.
M: Yes, but I’m not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that?
W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant, but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it’s still very important. In fact, 80% of Spam’s machine tools are from the Basque Country. As for paper processing, there’s still a little. But it’s no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?
M: Yes, thanks.
W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there’s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?
W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there used to be transport problems. Now though there are new train links and better roads, but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we’ll see this in more detail, so we’ll come back to this question, OK?
M: OK, right.
W: So I was about to say something about the workforce in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it’s very good and improving.
12. What was one of the main industrial activities in the region?
13. What does the woman say about steel-related manufacturing in the region?
14. What problems hinder the region’s development?
15. What will the speakers discuss later?
选项 A、It has gradually given way to service industry.
B、It remains a major part of industrial activity.
C、It accounts for 80 percent of the region’s GDP.
D、It has a history as long as paper processing.
答案B
解析 通过选项中的give way to，remain，ac—count for等推测问题关于某行业的发展变化。女士说实际上尽管钢铁生产和纸张加工没有以前重要了(less significant)，但钢铁生产仍然占到整个工业的44％，仍很重要(still important)，B中的amajor part与此对应，故为答案。A“让位于服务业”中的service industry并没有在对话中提及：C利用对话中的80％制造干扰，对话说的是西班牙有80％的机器工具来自Basque Country，与钢铁生产占GDP的比例无关；对话并非对钢铁生产和纸张加工的历史长短作比较，故排除D。but一词后往往是出题点，听音时要留意转折处。
