Kuwait is a country which is quite small, but which is very rich. It has a population of a little more than a million, and it is situated at the North end of the Persian Gulf. This small desert country is one of the world’s leading oil producers, and it has approximately fifteen percent of the world’s leading oil producers, and it has approximately fifteen percent of the world’s known petroleum reserves. Since the discovery of oil in 1938, Kuwait’s rules have turned the country into a prosperous welfare state. It has free primary and secondary education, free health care and social services; and the Kuwaitis do not have to pay any personal income tax for those services. The rate of literacy is high and constantly growing. The University of Kuwait was opened in 1966, but many of the Kuwaiti students still study in colleges and universities abroad, at state expense. Kuwait is, needless to point out, an Arab country, and about 99 percent of the people who live there are Moslems. But fewer than half of these Moslems are actually citizens of Kuwait. This is because there are many Moslem immigrants living and working there. Many of these recent immigrants have come from all over the Arab world—from places like Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, from Oman, and from the Sudan. Indians, Pakistanis, and Iranians live and work in Kuwait, too. The other one percent of the population, in other words, the non Moslems, are recent immigrants who were attracted by the opportunities to work for the oil companies. There are several thousand Europeans and Americans in Kuwait. Many of them are employed by the oil companies.
Questions:
33. What percentage of the world’s known petroleum reserves does Kuwait have?
34. According to the passage, the welfare system of Kuwait provides all of the following except?
35. When was the University of Kuwait opened?
选项
A、Free primary and secondary education.
B、Free health care.
C、Free social services.
D、Free tour to foreign countries.
答案
D
解析
细节题。原文关于科威特提供的社会福利的句子是:It has free primary and secondary education,free health care and social services.(国家提供免费中小学教育,免费医疗,还有社会福利等。)A、B、C选项中的primary and secondary education,health care,social services在该句中均出现了,只有选项D没有出现。答案是D。
