正确答案:
对
解析:
录音首句指出1992年的海洋法规定一个国家有权宣布开采任何从本国领土延伸到2500米下的大陆架的权利,接着提到“The deadline for nations to stake a claim under the treaty is 2009”,可知截止日期是2009年,因此题干表述正确。
【录音原文】
The 1982 Law of the Sea says that a country may claim rights to exploit any continental shelf extending from its territory to a depth of 2, 500 meters. The deadline for nations to stake a claim under the treaty is 2009. Russia is claiming much of the Arctic Ocean because its Siberian shelf extends 2, 000 kilometers along a thin promontory called the Lomonosov Ridge to the North Pole.
