Many countries face a somewhat more serious economic problem in-the form of an unfavorable trade balance with other nations Such an imbalance exist when the total value of a country’s imports exceeds that of that exports For example, if a country buys 10 billion dollars in products from other countries, yet sells 10 billion dollars of its own products overseas, its trade is 20 billion dollars Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import raw materials or manufactured goods °
Trang 15and obstacles to creation of an industrial base Even in the case of a fully developed nation such as the United States, a large trade deficit is reason for alarm American products, made by well-paid workers in U.S industries, cost more to produce than those made in places like Asia, where labor and material costs are much lower Money spent on foreign products is money not spent on items produced by domestic industries

_ PART FOUR : READING COMPREHENSION A Close test : Fill in each blank with one word :
Forty years ago "tourism" was a word rarely used by most
people Today it is understood by people the world (1)
many now regard holidays as part of every day life and foreign for granted Consequently, holiday- -making has
become a major business It has created a (8) number of
jobs and it is currently estimated that in some countries one in five persons is employed in work related to the tourist industry
The immediate reasons for this incredible explosion in tourism
are not hard to find (4) _ time has increased for many
| people as _(5) _— takes over routine chores at work and in the home This same technology has made industries more _(6) , bringing increased wealth for their employees, and

- The parallel has often been drawn between the exploration of the moon and of the Antarctic, which had no permanent inhabitants until very recently Then, as part of the 1957-58 International Geophysical Year — which also ushered in the space age— the United ‘States Navy built the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, and men learned to survive even in the depths of the fearsome Antarctic
winter
Trang 36the list of supplies is fuel oil for power and heat; this could be - readily replaced by the nuclear reactor - as indeed has been done in Antarctica And food, the other maJor import to Latitude Ninety
South, could be produced there if a closed cycle economy was developed One can imagine large conservatories in which crops" would be grown during the long hours of daylight, or under artificial illumination during the night Some of the plants could be eaten | directly, others converted protein by being fed to livestock — or,
more probably, treated by purely chemical methods Of course, all
organic waste products would be cycled back into the system — which, apart from the inevitable losses, would be self-sustaining _It would be a small working model of the Earth itself
Today, it is not economically worthwhile to go to this trouble; ' _ it is far cheaper to fly in supplies But the situation will be very
different on the moon, for it will always be much more expensive - to transport goods from earth to moon than from New Zealand to
~The South Pole It also appears, somewhat surprisingly, that the
lunar environment may be in’ many ways more hospitable than
the Antarctic; although the absence of an atmosphere greatly increases the complications of living, it is perhaps better to have no atmosphere at all than one at minus ninety degrees Fahrenheit, and moving at a hundred miles an hour
QUESTI ONS :
1 The Antarctic “had no ‘permanent inhabitants until - very recently’ (line 2)
Explain the phrase ' ‘permanent inhabitants" ?
A Residents living in a remote area for a long time ~B Residents living ina particular area fora long time _—C, Inhabitants living in a strange area for a certain time
D Inhabitants, living i ina particular, area for a short time
Trang 37? 2 What made it possible for the Antarctic to have “permanent
inhabitants” ?
A By transporting water and air as well as providing a nuclear reactor for power and heat
B Supply of fuel oil for power and heat C Development of a closed cycle economy
D Plants and crops growing in the large conservatories 3 Why has the polar base not been made self-sufficient ?
A It is difficult to ship in supplies B It is cheaper to fly in supplies C It is worth the effort
D It would be a small working model
4 What is the most important import needed for survival in the Antarctic ? A Water and air B Everything C Food D Fuel oil
5 Choose two of the following words / phrase For each of them, give one word or phrase (of not than five words) which has the same meaning as the word used in the passage
A Ushered (line 3) B Survival {line 6)
C Artificial Ulumination (line 13) D Hospitable (line 22)
