The figure of world illiteracy was obtained by
It is estimated that some seven hundred million people are unable to read and write, and there are probably two hundred and fifty million more whose level of attainment is so slight that it barely qualifies as literacy. Recently the attack on illiteracy has been stepped up. A world plan has been drawn up by a committee of UNESCO experts in Paris, as part of the UNESCO Nations Development Decade, and an international conference on the subject has also been held. UNESCO stresses that functional literacy is the aim. People must learn the basic skills of responsible citizenship: the ability to read notices, newspapers, timetables, letters, pricelists, to keep simple records and accounts, to sort out the significance of the information gathered, and to fill in forms. The major areas of illiteracy are in Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. There are at least one hundred million illiterates in Africa, comprising eighty to eighty-five percent of the total population. In Europe the figure is about twenty-four million, most of them in Southern Europe, with Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Yugoslavia heading the list.
选项
A、experts in Paris.
B、a committee of UNESCO.
C、an international organization.
D、none of these.
答案
D
解析
细节判断题。题干问的是世界文盲的统计数据是怎么来的,乍看起来A、B、C都有道理,但文章第一段只是说据估计(It is estimated that)世界上有7亿人不能读书、写字。这只是一个约数,文中并没有明确指出该数据由谁做出,所以D为正确答案。
