Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
China and Russia resisted an attempt in the U.N. Security Council to impose sanctions against North Korea for its missile launches Wednesday, saying only diplomacy could halt its nuclear and rocket development programs.
Japan, backed by the U.S. and Britain, circulated a resolution that would ban any country from transferring funds, marerial and technology that could be used in North Korea’s missile and weapons of mass destruction programs.
China and Russia countered that they favor a weaker council statement without any threat of sanctions. Both countries hold veto power in the council, making sanctions unlikely.
North Korea, which has proclaimed itself a nuclear weapons state, has said sanctions would amount to a declaration of war. China and Russia are clearly concerned that a U.N. demand for such measures would only make the current situation worse and delay a return to six-party talks. China and Russia are part of the talks along with North and South Korea, the United States and Japan.
In a possible sign that Moscow’s and Beijing’s position may carry the day, U.S. President Bush addressed the issue in a subdued manner without the harsh warnings that he had issued as recently as last week when he said that a missile launch would be unacceptable.
The North fired six shorter-range missiles on Wednesday, arguing it had the right to such launches. All of them apparently fell harmlessly into the Sea of Japan.
Tokyo responded swiftly by barfing North Korean officials from traveling to Japan, and banned one of its trading boats from entering Japanese waters for six months.
In South Korea, officials said Wednesday’s tests would affect inter-Korean initiatives such ms the dispatch of food and fertilizer from the Sooth to the North, but stressed that diplomacy was the best way m solve the crisis.
选项
A、It is very likely that the sanctions against North Korea will be passed.
B、North Korea has declared that a war would be started if sanctions were imposed.
C、China and Russia believe a U.N. sanction would only make the current situation worse.
D、America is for the sanction, but in a less acute way.
答案
A
解析
从听力材料我们了解到"Both countries (China and Russia) hold veto power in the council,making sanctions unlikely".由此可知,中国和俄罗斯在安理会都有否决权,因而(对朝鲜)制裁不可能通过。
