18、，标志着家族政治的回归周一，夏巴兹谢里夫当选为巴基斯坦新任总理，标志着该国两大政治世家重新掌权，重拾往日政治影响力。而在此前的周末，还出现了戏剧性的一幕，板球运动员出身的前任总理伊姆兰汗被罢免。对此，巴基斯坦人民党主席、反对党领袖比拉瓦尔布托扎尔达里表示：“欢迎回到从前的巴基斯坦。”在失去了联合执政同盟及一部分党内议员的支持之后，伊姆兰汗曾试图解散议会，以阻挠不信任动议的通过。巴基斯坦最高法院判定伊姆兰汗此举违宪，并下令让议会就不信任动议进行讨论，这为伊姆兰汗成为巴基斯坦首位被不信任投票罢免的总理创造了条件。谢里夫在出席人数几乎不到一半的议会中发表了胜利演说，凸显出了巴基斯坦严重的政治分歧。在国民议会的342个席位中，伊姆兰汗的168名盟友退场以示抗议，剩余的174名议员投票支持谢里夫上台。谢里夫将不得不应对巴基斯坦经济面临的巨大压力。随着全球商品价格飙升，几个月以来，巴基斯坦人民承受着高达两位数的通货膨胀。谢里夫对议会表示：“我们的经济面临着极端困难。形势的确很严峻，但这种情况必须也必然会得到改善。”拓展练习阅读理解参考答案34.A35.D36.B
