29、alization: Good or Bad? Globalization is defined in many ways .One simple _41_is that it is the rapid increase in inte rnational free trade, investment, and technological exchange. It is argued that this international trade has been one of the main causes of world economic _42_over the past half cen

30、tury.

Improved income? An argument_43_globalization is that the benefits of incre

31、ased international trade are shared among everyone in the country. An example of this is China, where per capita income(人 均收入)rose from about $1400 in 1980 to over $4000 by 2000._44_per capita income rose by over 100% in India between 1980 and 1996.

32、ors to world trade tend to become_45_ . However, these sorts of_46_might not be giving a true picture.

These countries develop expertise(专门技能)and increase their share i

36、n the international market. On the other hand, those countries which_54_ to support all their industries usually do not develop expertise in any one. Consequently, these countries do not find a world market for their goods and do not increase their gross domestic product(GDP). Anti-globalists claim

37、that there is a serious problem in this argument for the _55_ of industry. Countries which only concentrate on one or two main industries are forced to import other goods. These imported good are frequently overpriced, and these countries, therefore, have a tendency to accumulate huge debts.41. A. i
