问题     A good example of a group of nations working together for the common good is the European Economic Community, or the "Common Market". As of 1981, ten European countries made up this organization. In joining the Common Market, each member nation agrees to an overall plan that designed to unify the members’ economies.
    There are several key elements to the economic integration in the Common Market. First, such trade barriers as tariffs have been virtually eliminated among member countries. Workers are free to find employment in any of the member countries. Laws that regulate businesses have been made uniform. A common policy on agriculture and fiscal matters is another feature of the Common Market plan.
    As a result of the Common Market, the economic growth of member countries has sharply increased. Unemployment has been reduced. At the same time, the standard of living in the member nations has become higher.
As it is used in the passage, the word "tariff" in Paragraph 2 means______.

选项 A、things, events, etc. of little value or importance
B、taxes on goods imported or exported
C、prices asked for goods or services
D、movement of people and vehicles along roads and streets

答案B

解析 第二段第二句提到“First,such trade barriers as tariffs have been virtually eliminated a-mong member countries.”可据此推断,“tariffs”是国际间贸易壁垒的一种,而国际间贸易必然要关系到出口与进口关税问题。
