READING
1. The Treaty of Utrecht is an instrument on which, ironically enough, Spain in some
part bases its claim to Gibraltar. Though the treaty ceded Gibraltar to Britain in
perpetuity, its tenth article provided that, in the event that Britain relinquished
Gibraltar, Spain would have the right to reclaim possession.
A/ The treaty left the Anglo-Spanish conflict unresolved.
B/ Under the treaty Britain could keep Gibraltar indefinitely.
C/ There was a hidden contradiction in the treaty.
D/ The treaty left some room for Spain's foreign policy.
2. In Britain this elite opposition is quite open. Though polls show that 82 percent of
the British would like to see the death penalty restored, the politicians refuse even to
discuss the matter. Their reluctance is reinforced by strong pressure from the
European Union that has decreed the death penalty to be incompatible with
membership in its civilized ranks.
