Look at the statements below and the article about Plumper on the opposite page.
Which section of the article(A, B, C or D)does each statement(1 -7)refer to?
For each statement(1-7), mark one letter(A, B, C or D)on your Answer Sheet.
You will need to use some of these letters more than once.
Example:
0 Rodrigo Rato, help Turkey reduce inflation.
Plumper
A How does the country’s economy compare with those of the EU? Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey’s application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU’s Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic — in particular, the country’s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1 st 2004(Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1 st 2007.
B Furthermore, the country’s recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, stunning. GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13. 4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey’s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF’s managing director, Rodrigo Rato, help Turkey reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy’s resilience.
C Resilience has not historically been the country’s economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994 and by just under 5% in 1999. Indeed, throughout the 1990s growth oscillated like an electrocardiogram recording a violent heart attack. This irregularity has been one of the main reasons(along with red tape and corruption)why the country has failed dismally to attract much-needed foreign direct investment. Its stock of such investment(as a percentage of GDP)is lower now than it was in the 1980s, and annual inflows have scarcely ever reached $1 billion(whereas Ireland attracted over $25 billion in 2003, as did Brazil in every year from 1998 to 2000).
D One deterrent to foreign investors is due to disappear on January 1st 2005. On that day, Turkey will virtually take away the right of every one of its citizens to call themselves a millionaire. Six noughts will be removed from the face value of the lira; one unit of the local currency will henceforth be worth what 1 m are nowi. e. , about 0. 53($0. 70). Goods will have to be priced at both the new and old lira for the whole of the year, but foreign bankers and investors can begin to look forward to a time in Turkey when they will no longer have to juggle mentally with indeterminate strings of zeros.
There are three members is in all that the EU could identify their position of full members at that time.
选项
答案
A
解析
题目意为“当时共有三个成员国被欧盟确定他们的成员地位”。与之相符的是A段中的:“it is much the same as those of two countries,Bulgaria and Romania,which this week concludedaccession talks with the EU that could make themfull members on January 1st 2007.”所以选项A符合题意。
