问题
Potato chips in Japan are being sold for 6 times their normal price. (5) This is after the country’ s main manufacturer stopped sales due to a potato shortage. Storms and floods in its main potato growing region last year caused the worst harvest and more than 3 decades. Local media reports suggest Calbee and its main rival Koikeya are halting almost 50 products.
"We don’t know when we’ll be able to restart," a company spokesman said. Snack lovers are panic buying and many supermarket shelves are bare. Japanese laws limit the amount of imported potatoes that can be used in Japanese made products. (6) Japan says fear of disease is its main reason to block fresh imports. It still only allows potatoes from selected US states. This is only at certain times and on condition that they are processed at factories based near Japanese ports.
(7) But global warming has raised the possibility that domestic produce could be seriously affected by rare weather events more often.
Questions 5 to 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.
5. What problem is Japan facing?
6. Why does Japan limit the import of potatoes?
7. What might affect Japanese domestic produce?
选项
A、Shrinking potato farming.
B、Heavy reliance on import.
C、Widespread plant disease.
D、Insufficient potato supply.
答案
D
解析
题干问的是日本现在面临着什么问题。新闻开头提到,由于马铃薯供应短缺,日本最大的生产商停止销售薯片,故答案为D(马铃薯供应不足)。新闻中提到,风暴和洪水导致日本主要马铃薯种植区受灾,产量降至三十年来最低,但这并不表示马铃薯种植业萎缩,故排除A项(马铃薯种植业萎缩)。新闻中提到,由于担心进口马铃薯带来疾病,日本法律限制进口的马铃薯数量。B项(严重依赖进口)和C项(植物病害的传播)均与新闻内容不符,故排除。
