问题 The phrase "chipped away at" in the first paragraph probably means
All of the following are reasons of slow-paced reform of postal services EXCEPT

选项 A、preference to letter writing.
B、disapproval of open markets.
C、attachment to monopolies.
D、technological problems of postal services.

答案C

解析 本题是细节题。由题干中的slow-paced定位至第二段。首句指出;欧委会称其是有意放慢(相比其他市场)邮政市场自由化进程。之后说明第一个原因;technical complexity(邮政业在技术上的复杂性),故[D]符合文意。该段倒数第二句提到第二个原因:邮政从业人员的超大规模也引起了有关方面对自由化的担心。接下来,第四段首句指出自由化进程缓慢的最主要原因:保守人士对市场开放的抵触以及一定程度上对书信的看重。[A]和[B]符合文意,只有[C]“对垄断的依恋”没有提及,为过度推断,故为答案。
