Europe’s governments are slamming the last door still open for so-called economic migrants from poor countries. Throughout the late 1980s more and more would-be migrants used this loophole. In 1992, 13 European countries were handling close to 700,000 requests for immigration a year. By June this year applications have dropped to almost a third of that rate.
The largest falls are in Germany, which had Europe’s most open immigration policy, and in Sweden. In Germany almost all asylum-seekers and immigrants were let in and looked after at public expense until tribunals judged(and usually rejected)claims of persecution in their own countries. When Germany tightened the rules in July 1993, it was host to over 500,000 asylum-seekers.
Even countries like Britain and France, which had stricter ways of separating political from economic migrants to begin with, have made it less attractive to seek asylum, as new figures from the Inter-governmental Consultations on Asylum Refugees and Migration Matters in Geneva suggest. Britain’s Home Office is speeding ways to detect
fraudulent
application and has increased fines on ships and airlines that carry illegal immigrants.
A common policy on asylum and immigration is an avowed goal of the European Union. Germany, which sees itself beset by would-be immigrants crossing neighboring lands, is especially keen. It wants other Europeans to consider the system Germany now uses of rejecting out of hand applications for political asylum from countries deemed "safe" , beginning with all of Germany’s immediate neighbors. Other European governments, notable France’s, believes that it may be a mistake to single out a handful of countries as free from persecution. Does this not imply, the French would say, that asylum-seekers from countries off the list are at risk(and so deserve protection)? The French government would like to be a-ble to decide for itself. If the fall in asylum applications is a guide, Europe has a common policy despite itself; keep the poor foreigners out. But it is not clear that a fortress Europe policy by itself can work for long, now that the Cold War is gone. As Jonas Widgren, who monitors European migration in Vienna, points out, unless Western Europe works more closely on migration with Eastern Europe and Russian, it is simply storing up troubles.
Which of the following is implied in the text?
选项
A、Europe as a whole turns its back on poor immigrants.
B、European countries have a standard for political safety.
C、Germany only handles applications of persecuted migrants.
D、Other European governments will follow Germany’s suit.
答案
A
解析
该题属于段落中心信息考查类题目。此类题目的正确答案一般是根据段落中心句内容作答。本文主要内容为欧洲逐渐收紧的移民政策,首段中心句为首句,指出欧洲政府猛然关上了仍向来自贫穷国家敞开的所谓的经济移民的最后的大门。末段中心句为第七句,指出欧洲国家的共同政策是他们不欢迎贫穷的外国人进入。其中冒号后面引导的成分一般是一个段落出现重要核心信息语篇标志之一,此类语篇标志所在句往往是段落中心句。由段落中心句可知,选项[A]为正确答案。
