材料1 新千年的第二个十年伊始,中东地区接连几个国家发生大规模群众抗议游行,导致一些国家政局动荡,政府更迭,这里的剧变震动世界。动荡起源于一向被认为平稳和相对繁荣的突尼斯。在连续20多天突尼斯民众声势浩大的抗议浪潮中,现年74岁的本·阿里结束了对突尼斯23年的统治,于今年1月15日凌晨宣布解散政府后仓皇出逃,流亡沙特。突尼斯风暴的外溢效应迅速扩散,民众抗议浪潮在多个阿拉伯国家涌动。1月25日,以青年人为主体的数十万埃及民众走上首都开罗以及亚历山大、苏伊士等城市的街头举行抗议游行,要求总统穆巴拉克下台。他们的口号是“要面包,要自由,要社会公正”。穆巴拉克在民众抗议浪潮压力下宣布解散政府,在执政30年来首次任命一名副总统,并誓言到今年9月任期届满后不再谋求连任。然而抗议的浪潮却一浪高过一浪,并向更多的城市蔓延。2月10日,抗议者开始包围总统府和议会等要害部门。2月11日,执政长达30年,曾经叱咤风云的穆巴拉克宣布辞去总统职务,把权力交给武装部队最高委员会。在短短18天的埃及民众反政府抗议声中,穆巴拉克黯然走下政治舞台。埃及,这个有着8000万人口的阿拉伯世界第一大国出现了历史性转折。与此同时,新一轮的抗议热潮,在阿尔及利亚、巴林、也门、约旦、利比亚等国蔓延开来。巴林已出动军队平息骚乱。利比亚当局以维护国家统一、反对外部干涉为旗帜,动用武力镇压。卡扎菲之子塞义夫通过电视讲话放言,不惜“血流成河”也要战斗到最后一颗子弹。国际社会不少人惊叹,中东正经历一次深刻的制度和结构变化震荡,序幕已拉开,其结果尚难预料。 摘自:吴思科《中东局势剧变震动世界》(2011年3月4日) 材料2 作为政治地理概念的中东,开启于两大事件:苏伊士运河的开凿与发现石油。1859年,苏伊士运河开凿始建;同一年,美国人德雷克在宾夕法尼亚发现油井,这是美国石油开发的开始,也是世界石油大规模商业性开发的开始。1911~1920年,美国的石油消费增长了90%;这一期间,美国机动车从180万辆增至920万辆,因此迅猛增长,石油供应能力成为美国人普遍的担心。而美国矿产局局长1919年预计:“在今后2至5年内,我国油田生产将达到上限,此后我们将面临日益加快的下降阶段。”对未来石油短缺的担忧,迫 [单项选择]The strike is to protest against
