阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案．

　　Henry Kissinger may be the most successful Secretary of State (国务卿) to hold that office in modern times. When he was appointed in the late 1960s, there were no American ties with Communist China．Vietnam and Berlin seemed ready to draw the United States into a third world war, and Russia was seen as the “enemy”.

　　But all this has changed, and Henry Kissinger caused much of the change. In1971, he made his first trip to China, a trip that was the beginning of the present ties between the United States and China．He brought the United States and Russia closer together on major subjects by the policy he called “detente” literally meaning a relaxation. His philosophy was always to talk and to bring together. With these two policies, Kissinger did much to draw attention away from any possible Russian-American friction (摩擦). In 1973 he made his first visit to Egypt. Here he was able to begin U. S. relation with Egypt. He used this contact later to begin the sort of talks the American press called “shuttle diplomacy (穿梭外交)”. For ninety-nine days, he “shuttled” back and forth on flights between Cairo and Jerusalem to work out a step by step withdrawal (撤离) of Israeli troops from the Sinai desert. His wisdom, his careful approach to detail, and his presence made “shuttle diplomacy” work. It was the only successful approach to Mid-East peace in the thirty years since the state of Israel was founded.

　　 Another major work was the Strategies (战略的) Arms Limitation Talk. Though his term in office passed with the treaty unsigned, Kissinger left a draft (草案) of the treaty to which the Russians had already agreed．The SALT treaty spelled out a one-tenth reduction in nuclear arms, a great success by any standard, even if one does not consider all the other conditions and limitations included in the treaty.

    Even though he successfully helped bring an end to the Vietnam War, Kissinger's final days in office were affected, as was the entire government's branch in one way or another, by the scandals (丑闻) of the Nixon White House. Kissinger's critics (批评者们) point to his role in placing wiretaps on the phones of reporters and officials and to what they consider his “high-handed” approach to setting foreign policy. But Kissinger, during the last few months of the Nixon presidency, limited the effects of the American domestic (国内的) problems on its foreign policy. He continued talks in the Middle East. He continued close contact with the Soviet Union. History will decide in the final view, as Kissinger (and many presidents) often said, on the value of his service. Whatever they decide, whether his actions are finally to be considered wise of foolish, he had a personal vision that will be difficult to march.

D．it helped stop the third world war

(3)We can conclude from the passage that ________.

[　　]

A．“shuttle diplomacy” greatly affected the SALT treaty

B．Watergate made Kissinger ineffective

C．some of the things that Kissinger began are still being worked out

D．Kissinger was not a humanitarian (人道主义者)
