Task 5
Direction: The following is a passage on international trade. After reading it, you should give brief answers to the 5 questions (No.56 through No. 60) that follow. The answers (in no more than 3 words) should be written after the corresponding numbers on the Answer Sheet.
International trade develops because certain countries are able to produce some goods more efficiently than other countries. They exchange goods to satisfy their needs and wants. Efficient production may be the result of several factors. A certain climate in a particular country may allow that country to grow agricultural products in large quantities. For instance, the climates in the United States and Canada are suitable for production of large amounts of wheat. Natural resources such as oil or coal are rich in other countries. Countries with a large pool of unskilled laborers are able to produce products which are labor intensive more cheaply than countries with highly paid, skilled labor forces. Another factor is geographical location.
The Scottish economist, Adam Smith, believed that in a free market countries produce whatever they can most efficiently grow or manufacture. In other words, if they can make more money growing cotton than making cloth, they grow cotton and export it. Then they import cloth from a country that makes cloth more efficiently than it grows cotton.
There are several reasons why governments try to control the imports and exports of a country. One reason is that a country enjoys an advantage if it exports more than it imports. Wealth goes up in the exporting country. Some countries have special programs to encourage exports. Sometimes governments want to protect a domestic industry because that industry provides employment for the population.
56. The reason of development of international trade is that certain countries are able to produce some goods _____ other countries.
57. The factors influencing efficient products mentioned in the passage _____ and geographical location.
58. The Scottish economist believed that they can _____ growing cotton than making cloth.
59. What is one of the reason governments try to control the imports and exports of a country? One reason is a country _____.
60. Why do sometimes governments want to protect a domestic industry? Because the industry _____ the population.
