【2019年中國農業銀行真題】
FAST cars whizz around, malls are full of expensive luxuries and cranes dominate the skyline. But scratch the shimmering surface of the Gulf and you soon find countries hurting from the low oil price, currently around $40 a barrel. Growth is slowing and unemployment is rising. Policy makers even dare utter a three-letter “t” word until recently taboo: tax.
Oil is central to the six Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) states, which have used the windfall of the past few years to spend lavishly. Unlike many oil exporters, such as Nigeria and Venezuela, they have high foreign-exchange reserves and low debts to cover short-term gaps. But public spending is generous and the private sector is heavily reliant on oil to boot. To be sustainable in an era of lower prices, the rulers must change the structure of their economies.
The IMF reckons the lower oil price knocked $340 billion off Arab oil-exporting states’ government revenues in 2015. This year is looking worse. Moody’s, a ratings agency, this month downgraded Bahrain and Oman and put on watch the other four GCC states: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar. “It’s the end of an era for the Gulf,” says Razan Nasser of HSBC in Dubai. “And we’re only just starting to see the effects.”
Oil receipts typically account for more than 80% of GCC government revenues, rising to over90% of Saudi Arabia’s budget before the crisis. Dubai, one of the emirates making up the UAE, is an exception, with oil accounting for only 5% of revenues. That is because it has successfully diversified: tourism and services account for most of its government revenues.
Governments are reacting to the squeeze on their incomes with a mixture of strategies, drawing down reserves and taking on debt on the one hand, and imposing spending cuts on the other. Last year they made tweaks, such as curbing benefits for public servants. This year will be tougher. Oman has told all state-owned enterprises to remove perks such as cars. Qatari companies including Al Jazeera and the Qatar Foundation, a cultural organization, have laid off employees. With such tweaks Kuwait, the UAE and Qatar, which have small populations and high foreign exchange reserves, can get by for a decade.
1. Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?
A.Luxury landmarks dominate Gulf skyline.
B. Oil Price is around $40 per gallon.
C.Gulf authorities refuse to raise taxes.
D. Oil price is booming.
答案: C
【東吳教育解析】文章第一段最后一句說了“Policy makers even dare utter a three-letter “t” word until recently taboo: tax.”,說明tax(稅收)這個詞直到最近也還是taboo(禁忌)。C選項(海灣國家拒絕提高稅收)正確。
2. Which of the following choice all contains GCC states?
A.Saudi Arabia, UAE, Venezuela
B.Qatar, Kuwait, Nigeria
C.Bahrain, Oman, Qatar
D.Iran, Kuwait, Dubai
答案:
【東吳教育解析】根據題干關鍵詞GCC states定位到文章第三段This year is looking worse. Moody’s, a ratings agency, this month downgraded Bahrain and Oman and put on watch the other four GCC states: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar,說明GCC states包括Bahrain Oman Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar。C選項正確。
3. What can be inferred from the context?
A.Other GCC states will start economic reform in the way Dubai has done.
B.Negative outlook might remain for GCC countries’ government financial condition.
C.Oil price will hardly rise in the foreseeable future.
D.Oil revenue accounts for 85% of Qatar’s government income.
答案: C
【東吳教育解析】文章第二段最后一句說了:To be sustainable in an era of lower prices, the rulers must change the structure of their economies,說明油價已經進入了一個長期低價的時代,因此石油輸出國應該改變他們的經濟結構。因此C選項(石油價格在可預見的未來幾乎不會上升)最為準確。
4. What is the author implying by last sentence?
A.Kuwait, Qatar and UAE will face tougher situation than other peers.
B.Qatar and UAE’s economy will be better than that of Kuwait.
C.Life for Saudi Arabia, Oman and Bahrain will only be tougher.
D.All GCC states will hardly solve the hard problems.
答案: C
【東吳教育解析】文章最后一句說了With such tweaks Kuwait, the UAE and Qatar, which have small populations and high foreign exchange reserves, can get by for a decade. Kuwait, the UAE and Qatar這三個國家因為人口少,外匯儲備多,因此在下一個十年日子還過得去;言下之意其余的三個國家可能境況還不如這三個。C選項(Saudi Arabia, Oman and Bahrain這三個國家的生活只會變得艱難)正確。
5. Which deduction may NOT be true?
A.Dubai used to heavily rely on oil revenue.
B.Gulf States used to be promising.
C.The author criticizes GCC’s conventional economic pattern.
D.Oil price doesn’t influence Dubai’s economy.
答案: C
【東吳教育解析】文章說了To be sustainable in an era of lower prices, the rulers must change the structure of their economies,說明作者認為石油輸出國應該改變他們的經濟結構,但是卻無從判斷作者是否對其過去經濟模式持批評態度。C選項正確。
