What does the news item say about the flood in the United States?
Flooding along the Mississippi River has ruined crops, damaged farmland and delayed barge traffic in parts of the southern United States. Officials say diversion of some of the water through spillways in Louisiana, though, eventually will ease the flow and help speed the return to normalcy. Closings of some sections of the river are considered only temporary.
The U.S. Coast Guard has shut some small stretches of the Mississippi River to barge traffic in recent days and has allowed only one barge at a time to pass through the stretch of river near Vidalia, Louisiana, where levees are close to being topped. The passage of the barges produces a wake that can cause water to splash over the levees, making local residents anxious about their property.
选项
A、Residents were asked to vacate their homes.
B、Some routines for the barges have been stopped.
C、Troops were brought in to help the victims.
D、Airplanes have been sent to rescue the assets.
答案
B
解析
本题问及政府针对洪灾采取的抗洪措施是什么。新闻指出,美国海岸警卫队最近几天已经关闭了密西西比河的一些驳船运输分支,并且一次只允许一艘驳船通过路易斯安那州附近的分支。故正确答案是B。
