【答案解析】[听力原文]
   An American college student detained in the D.P.R.K. has publicly confessed to attempting to steal a political banner from a Pyongyang hotel.
   Otto Wambier appeared before a group of domestic and foreign journalists Monday in the D.P.R.K capital, accompanied by the guards. The 21-year-old University of Virginia student, who was visiting the D.P.R.K. with a tour group, was arrested last month before boarding a plane out of the country. He has been charged with committing a hostile act against the state, with the help of the United States.
   Wambier told reporters he removed a political slogan from a staff-only area of the hotel where the group was staying to give to a member of his church who wanted the banner to display as a "trophy." He said the church member offered him a used car worth $10,000 and told him that if he was caught and unable to return, Wambier's mother would get $200,000.
   Why did the American student go to the D.P.R.K.?
