听力原文： The European allies will resume talks with Iran in Paris on Tuesday to insist th

at the nation restrict its nuclear activities to civilian purposes, a leading Genuan legislator said.

"The Europeans are very clear about that," Volker Ruehe, chairman of the foreign affairs committee in the German parliament, said Wednesday.

Ruehe was in Washington primarily to talk to Bush administration officials about Germany' s drive for a reorganization of the U.N. Security Council that would give Germany a permanent seat.

On a recent visit to Iran, Ruehe said, he found lower-level Iranian officials saying openly "they want to go nuclear." He said they view having nuclear weapons as a matter of national pride, which makes negotiating a ban on weapon development a political problem.

With strong U.S. support, Germany, Britain and France have taken the lead in seeking a negotiated settlement.

If talks fail, the United States and the allies have agreed to take their concerns to the International Atomic Energy Agency's board in Vienna and probably then to the U.N. Security Council, where the United States would be expected to push for economic and political sanctions.

The German delegation went to Washington ______

A．informing US President George Bush of its recent visit to Iran

B．consulting with US President George Bush for Iron's nuclear development

C．talking about political and economic sanctions to be imposed on Iran

D．asking America' s favor for its proposal to victory U.N. Security Council
