参考答案和解析
正确答案: D
解析:
事实细节的找寻和判断。关于阿拉斯加州长对Pmdhoe Bay油田关闭所采取的措施,录音首句指出其imposed a state hiring freeze,对应选项A。而该州长同时表示他将会support hearings into BP’s maintenance practices,与选项B表达内容相一致。接着录音中提到该州长会让阿拉斯加州的检察总长investigate whether the state could hold the oil giant fully accountable for the state’s losses,即调查该石油巨头是否应对本州损失负所有的责任,因此选项A也正确。可见,唯有D项的内容在文中未被提及。
