问题 What is the percentage of all the adults who are now HIV-positive in Botswana?
  
The people of Botswana, which has the highest rate of HIV infection in the world, have been given a stark warning by their President, Festus Mogae, that they must abstain from unsafe sex or die. President Mogae said in a BBC interview, timed to coincide with World Aids Day, that overseas funding of drugs to combat HTV would eventually end. From Southern Africa Martin Plaut reports: 35,000 people are now on anti-retrovirals and the number is rising. But the foreign funding will not go on indefinitely. And President Festus Mogae warns that Botswana’s economy will not be able to afford the drugs needed to keep a rising number of patients alive and well. "It’s not sustainable in the long term unless something happens to the infection rates. We have to say, maybe things like, abstain or die." It’s seldom the politicians speak their mind quite as plainly as President Mogae. But with a staggering 37% of all adults now HIV-positive and no sign of the epidemic peaking, he doesn’t mince his words.

选项 A、Botswana has the highest rate of HIV infection in the world.
B、Botswana’s economy will be able to afford the drugs needed.
C、35,000 people in Botswana are now on anti-retrovirals and the number is rising.
D、There is no sign of decline in the rate of HIV infection.

答案B

解析 细节判断题。文中提到:博茨瓦纳的经济将无法负担为不断增加的病人提供药物。选项B与此相反,符合题意。选项A、C、D在文中都明确提到,故不符题意。预读时应注意关键词NOT。
