【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文] The northern part of the East African nation of Kenya is hot and gets little rain. The area has been suffering from periods of small amount of rainfalls and droughts, when almost no rain falls. This has been going on for many years. People who live there say the droughts are becoming more severe. Herders are among those suffering the most. They are people who move with their animals from place to place. But over the past few years, many of the animals have died. The lack of rain has stopped the growth of grasses and other foods the animals eat. Many of the herders have no animals left, so they are forced to become farmers. In their culture being a herder brings them power and respect. Farmers are not as respected as herders. Mr. Abdi says his wife was unhappy, because in their society a man who farms is considered lowly and poor. This is still true, he says, even though he now makes more money from his farm than he did with his goats. Which statement is true according to the news report? 推理判断题。新闻提到，在过去几年里，许多动物都死了。雨水不足使得喂养动物的草和其他食物停止生长。由此可推断动物死亡是由于草和食物的不足造成的。故选B。
