(2017·抚顺二中模拟)China's air defense identification zone in the East China Sea promotes “safety instead of danger, cooperation instead of confrontation”， officials said in response to opposition from Japan and the United States.
Ministry of National Defense spokesman Geng Yansheng said on Tuesday that Japan needs to reflect on its own actions and correct its mistakes, while other parties should speak and act cautiously in order not to send signals that could fuel Tokyo's wrongdoing.
He made the remark after Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said on Tuesday that Tokyo and Washington confirmed their cooperation on how to handle the air zone during talks with US Vice President Joe Biden.
Biden called China's air zone “an attempt to unilaterally change the status quo” and said that he will raise US concerns when meeting with President Xi Jinping later this week in Beijing.
He said the declaration of the zone has raised regional tensions and increased the risk of accidents and miscalculation.
Geng said Tokyo is not qualified to make remarks about China's “reasonable and lawful” establishment of the zone, since it has been stirring trouble in territorial disputes.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Hong Lei said that China is not the one that has aggravated tensions and that China objects that certain countries are seizing and exaggerating the matter for their own interest.
Biden arrived in Tokyo late on Monday. His weeklong trip in East Asia will also take him to China and South Korea.
Experts said that the
issue may overshadow the
US intention of focusing on economic affairs.
Jin Canrong, a professor of international studies at Renmin University of China, said the absence of a joint statement, which was pursued by Tokyo, showed that Washington is now leading the current situation and is unwilling to be hijacked by the Japanese agenda.
So ar,more_than_55_airlines_from_19_countries_and_three_regions_have_reported_their_flight_plans_to_Chinese_authorities,_according to the spokesman.
Since Beijing announced the zone in late November, Tokyo,
Seoul
and
Washington

all
sent
military
or paramilitary planes through show of defiance.
1．What does China's air defense identification zone aim for according to the passage?
A．Safety, danger, cooperation and confrontation.
B．Not only safety but also cooperation.
C．Danger, cooperation as well as confrontation.
D．Not safety, but cooperation instead of confrontation.
2．Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?
A．Japan confirmed the cooperation on how to handle the air zone with the US.
B．Japan has rights to make remarks about China's establishment of the air zone.
C．The most important thing that Japan has to do is to correct its mistakes.
D．Other countries should be careful not to send wrong information to Japan.
3．We can learn the following statements from the passage EXCEPT that ________.
A．Biden thought China was going to change the recent conditions alone
