听力原文：The European Union is considering taking measures against Canada over its annual

听力原文： The European Union is considering taking measures against Canada over its annual seat hunt. Spokeswoman Barbara Helfferich said the EU’s Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas "is looking into the matter of the inhumane killing of seals". One option for the EU would be a ban on seal imports, although there was no sign that this was under immediate consideration. Belgium and the Netherlands have already taken this step, and the United States has banned Canadian seal products since 1972. The EU barred the import of white pelts taken from baby seals in 1983, but a wider ban would have serious consequences for hunters and their communities, which rely heavily on the seal hunt. This year there are new roles in place—such as making sure the animals are dead before they are skinned, as recommended by the EU in December—which are designed to appease concerns in Europe. The authorities have set a limit for the catch of 275,000 seals, a rise from 270,000 last year.

What is the main idea of the news item？

A．Seals have been ruthlessly hunted in Canada.

B．EU considers measures against Canada on seal hunt.

C．Canada encourages hunters to take pelts from seals.

D．EU has already banned Canadian seal products.

听力原文：The European Union has drafted a list of US products to be hit with import taxes

听力原文： The European Union has drafted a list of US products to be hit with import taxes in retaliation for tariffs the US has imposed on European steel. EU member governments will review the list before the EU submits it to the World Trade Organization which arbitrates international trade disputes. EU officials will not say which American products will be hit by the EU sanctions. But diplomats monitoring the most recent trans Atlantic trade dispute say they include textiles and steel products. Earlier this month, the Bush administration imposed tariffs of about 30% on some steel imports including European products. The EU has appealed to the WTO to get those duties verturned. But the WTO decision on the matter will take up to a year or more. EU officials say that under WTO rules, the EU has the right to impose retaliatory measures in June, but they say the US can avoid the EU's possible counter-measures if it pays more than 2 billion dollars in compensation to the EU for imposing the steel tariffs in the first place. The officials say Washington could also escape retaliation by lowering US import duties on other EU products. The Bush administration says it will not pay compensation.

The trade dispute between the European Union and the US was caused by ______.

A．US refusal to accept arbitration by WTO.

B．US imposing tariffs on European steel.

C．US refusal to pay compensation to EU.

D．US refusal to lower import duties on EU products.

听力原文： Europe produces around 20 million tonnes of sugar each year—much more than it co

nsumes. Producers enjoy guaranteed prices some three times those on world markets. High tariffs keep cheaper imports out— while subsidies allow producers to dump millions of tonnes on export markets each year. So unveiling this re- form. the Em’s Agriculture Commissioner Frans Fischler said it recognized the unpleasant truth that an artificially high sugar price in the EU was not economically viable and was bad news for development policy and consumers too. The new proposals would reduce by about a third the guaranteed price that EU producers receive. The proposals would also cut quotas—or the amount of product eligible for subsidies. That should ultimately lead to a drop in production.

Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the news？

A．Overproduction of sugar.

B．Adjustment of sugar price.

C．Sugar subsidies.

D．Inflation.
