W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think.
M: Yes, but I’m not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that?
W: Yes, of course. In fact, they are less significant. But steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it’s still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain’s machine tools are from the Basque Country. As for paper processing, there’s still a little. But it’s no longer what it once was in the region. So, is that clear?
M: Yes, thanks.
W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there’s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region.
M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems?
W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts, so there used to be transport problems. Now, though, there are new train links and better roads. But it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected. Is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we’ll see this in more detail, so we’ll come back to this question, OK?
M: OK, right.
W: So I was about to say something about the work force in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it’s very good and improving.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What does the woman say about steel-related manufacturing in the region?
24. What problem hinders the region’s development?
25. What will the speakers discuss later?
选项
A、It has a history as long as paper processing.
B、It remains a major part of industrial activity.
C、It has gradually given way to service industry.
D、It accounts for 80 percent of the region’s GDP.
答案
B
解析
女士通过But转折指出,钢铁制造业仍占整个工业活动的44%,依然很重要,即钢铁工业依然是工业活动的重要部分,故答案为[B]。remains a major part对应对话中的is still very important。对话中but等转折关系处常设题,要尤其留意but之后的内容。
