Passage 1
African elephants have been slaughtered at alarming rate over the past decade, largely because they are the primary source of the world's ivory. Their population has been dwindled from 1.3 million in 1979 to just 625,000 today, and the rate of killing has been accelerating in recent years because many of the older, bigger tusked animals have already been destroyed. "The poachers now must kill times as many elephants to get the same quantity of ivory," explained Curtis Bohlen,Senior vice president of the World Wildlife Fund.
Though its record on the environment has been spotty so far, the government last week took the lead in a major conservation issue by imposing a ban on ivory imports into the US. The move came just four days after a consortium of conservation groups, including the World Wildlife Fund and Wildlife Conservation International, called for that kind of action, and it made the US the first nation to forbid imports of both raw and finished ivory. The ban, says Bohlen, sends a very clear message to the ivory poachers that the game is over.
In the past African nations have resisted an ivory ban, but increasingly they realized that the decimation of the elephant herds poses a serious threat to their tourist business. Last month Tanzania and several other African countries called for an amendment to the 102 nation Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species that would make the ivory trade illegal worldwide.
The amendment is expected to be approved at an October meeting in Geneva and to go into effect next January. But between now and then, conservationists contend, poachers may go on a rampage,killing elephants wholesale, so nations should unilaterally forbid imports right away. The US government brought that argument, and by week's end the twelve nations European Community had followed with its own ban.
Why did the African nations welcome an ivory ban?
查看材料A．The rate of killing has been accelerating.
B．The US government forbids imports of both raw and finished ivory.

BThe female Asian elephants do not carry tusks.
CMost mature elephants with good ivory are killed illegally.
DElephants are killed for ivory and meat.
正确答案： D解析：
录音中提到“Although elephants can live for up to 60-70 years, with the threat from ivory poaching few mature elephants with good ivory reach this age.”(尽管大象可以生活长达60-70年，但是由于象牙偷猎活动的威胁有良好象牙的成年大象很少达到这一年龄)，所以C项正确，但是由此不能推断出通常大象都在60-70岁时死去，故A项错误。根据录音可知，雄性和雌性非洲象都有象牙，但是只有雄性的亚洲象有象牙，由此可知，雌性亚洲象没有象牙，所以B项正确。根据“Elephants are also being killed for their meat”可知，D项也正确。
