The sea is the common property of all nations. It belongs equally to all. None can appropriate it exclusively to themselves; nor is it "foreign" to any.
This was the decision of John Marshall, chief justice of the United States from 1801 to 1835. It was stated as a fundamental rule of the sea that no one, and therefore everyone, owns the ocean. This means that outside territorial waters (the waters within three miles of a country’s coast) , the law is whatever nations agree on in peacetime and whatever the strongest naval powers can enforce in wartime.
After the United States purchased Alaska, Americans began to seize Canadians who were hunting seals outside Alaskan territorial waters. The Americans claimed that the seals were American property because they often came in to the Alaskan shores owned by the United States. International arbitrators disagreed with this reasoning. In some cases, however, the special rights of a nation that makes use of an open-sea area are recognized.
All of the sea’s rules of the road are established by international conferences and treaties.
International arbitrators decided that_________.
选项
A、Canada had no right to hunt seals of Alaska
B、the Canadians could hunt the seals outside Alaskan territorial waters
C、the United States could claim the seals as its property
D、the Americans could not hunt the seals
答案
B
解析
文章第三段倒数第二句提到“International arbitrators disagreed with this reasoning.”其中“this”指的是前面一句美国的声明。四个选项中只有B项较为符合本句隐含意思,故选B。
