B、They wanted fewer working hours.
C、They wanted better working conditions.
D、They wanted an annual three-week holiday.

答案B

解析 本题考查考生对文章部分主旨要义的推断能力。第二条新闻的主要内容是工人罢工结束,返回工作岗位。但是题目要求考生答出工人罢工的目的,答案并未直接出自原文“which resulted in a new agreement on fewer working hours.”,而需要考生进行推断,新闻说工人和厂家的淡判成功,又说缩短工时达成了协议,可见,工人罢工的目的是为缩短工时。其他三项均不符合题意,文中未涉及。
