问题 How much does the World Bank suppose to spend in facing the agricultural challenges?
  
A UN agency says there are major funding gaps in efforts to help the agricultural sector adapt to climate change. The Food and Agriculture Organization, the FAO, says this could affect food security. The warning comes as the UN Climate Change Conference continues in Cancun, Mexico.
    The World Bank estimates it will cost about $2.5 billion a year—for the next 40 years-to help agriculture in developing countries adapt to climate change. Other estimates say costs could run as high as $14 billion a year.
    However, the FAO says, "Available financing mechanisms are substantially insufficient to meet the climate change and food security challenges faced by the agricultural sector." This, despite the fact that the FAO says there are many examples of how agriculture can become more.

选项 A、The agricultural problem would influence the food security according to the FAO.
B、The funds for meeting the climate change and food security problems are adequate.
C、In many cases, the slowdown of agriculture could be recovered.
D、It will take a long time and a large sum of money to reach the goal.

答案B

解析 细节判断题。新闻中指出,要协助农业发展适应气候的变化还存在很大的资金缺口,粮食农业组织说这会影响到食品的安全。尽管有很多的事例可以证明农业是怎样的具有抗击力,然而现有的融资机制远不能应对农业部门所面临的气候变化及食品安全挑战。选项A、C、D都与新闻内容报道相符,题于问的是不正确的说法,故正确答案是B。
