【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文] 23-24
A leading Senate Democrat says the US detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, should be shut down. Senator Joe Biden added his voice to the reaction to a Pentagon report released Friday. The report details five incidents in which US guards and interrogators desecrated the Koran at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Speaking on ABC Biden says he thinks the US should move towards closing Guantanamo. "We should end up shutting it down, moving those prisoners. Those we have reason to keep, keep. Those we don't, let go."
The topic also came up on CNN. Democrat K said he didn't believe that it was necessary to close down Guantanamo, and Republican Senator Mitch McConnell seethes over Amnesty International's use of the word "gulag" to describe the prison. He said it's difficult to run a perfect prison.
本题考查对新闻细节(人物)的捕捉。新闻中首先提到：“A leading Senate Democrat says the US detention center at Guantanamo Bay，Cuba，should be shut down．Senator Joe Biden added his voice to the reaction to a Pentagon report released Friday.”可见民主党认为位于古巴的关塔那摩监狱应该被关闭。接着就具体提到参议员拜登的意见，并对其意见进行了详细说明。因此选项 D是正确的。
