What is the main idea of the news item?
The bloodshed at In Amenas has left the oil and gas industry struggling to come to terms with what it might mean for investment in risky countries. Bob Dudley, BP’s chief executive says the company is "reviewing security" at its other facilities in the region and around the world. The attack is the worst tragedy of its kind in living memory despite the energy industry’s presence in many unstable regions. BP has "never experienced an attack on this scale before", Mr Dudley says. Security remains a top priority in countries such as Iraq, where there have been instances of workers being kidnapped. The perception of risk for foreign oil workers and their families in North Africa, has soared.
选项
A、Foreign investment in unstable regions.
B、BP’s presence in North Africa.
C、Security concerns in risky countries.
D、Protection for foreign oil workers.
答案
C
解析
新闻的主题常在开头出现。本篇新闻首句提及In Amenas的流血事件使石油和天然气行业努力接受在危险国家投资可能存在风险的现实。接着引用BP首席执行官的话,谈到BP公司正在对本地区和世界各地的其他设施进行“安全审查”(reviewing security)。最后说安全问题仍然是伊拉克之类国家首要关注的(top pri-ority),北非外国石油工作人员及家属的风险感(The perception of risk)急剧上升。新闻中反复提及的security,risk,risky,unstable等词说明本篇新闻的中心是安全问题,故C项正确。
