the United States, Germany, and Japan - succeeded not because of free trade but because of protectionism and subsidies They argue that the more recently successful economies of South Korea, Taiwan, and China all had strong state-led development strategies that did not follow neo-liberalism These critics think that government encouragement of “infant industries” - that is, industries that are just beginning to develop-enables a country to become internationally competitive Furthermore, those who criticize the Washington Consensus suggest that the inflow and outflow of money from speculative investors must be limited to prevent bubbles These bubbles are characterized by the rapid inflow of foreign funds that bid up domestic stock markets and property values When the economy cannot sustain such expectation, the bubbles burst as investors panic and pull their money out of the country Protests by what is called the anti-globalization movement are seldom directed against globalization itself but rather against abuses that harm the rights of workers and the environment The question raised by nongovernmental organizations and protesters at WTO and IMF gatherings is whether globalization will result in a rise of living standards or a race to the bottom as competition takes the form of lowering living standards and undermining environmental regulations One of the key problems of the 21st century will be determining to what extent markets should be regulated to promote fair competition, honest dealing, and fair distribution of public goods on a global scale Question 39: Supporters of free-market globalization point out that _ A investment will be allocated only to rich countries B taxes that are paid on goods will be increased C there will be less competition among producers D consumers can benefit from cheaper products Xem thêm các Đề thi khác tại: https://thaytro.net/mod/forum/view.php?id=872 DeThi.edu.vn (4) Question 40: The word “allocated” in the passage mostly means _ A distributed B solved C removed D offered Question 41: The phrase “keeps sellers on their toes” in the passage mostly means _ A prevents sellers from selling new products B forces sellers to go bare-footed C makes sellers responsive to any changes D allows sellers to stand on their own feet Question 42: According to critics of globalization, several developed countries have become rich because of _ A their help to developing countries B their neo-liberal policies C their protectionism and subsidies D their prevention of bubbles Question 43: The debate over globalization is about how _ A to spread ideas and strategies for globalization B to govern the global economy for C to use neo-liberal policies for the benefit of the rich countries D to terminate globalization in its entirety Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions It takes a long time to raise a family of owlets, so the great horned owl begins early in the year In January and February, or as late as March in the North, the male calls to the female with a resonant hoot The female is larger than the male She sometimes reaches a body length of twenty-two to twenty-four inches, with a wingspread up to fifty inches To impress her, the male does a strange courtship dance He bobs He bows He ruffles his feathers and hops around with an important air He flutters from limb to limb and makes flying sorties into the air Sometimes he returns with an offering of food They share the repast, after which she joins the dance, hopping and bobbing about as though keeping time to the beat of an inner drum Owls are poor home builders They prefer to nest in a large hollow in a tree or even to occupy the deserted nest of a hawk or crow These structures are large and rough, built of sticks and bark and lined with leaves and feathers Sometimes owls nest on a rocky ledge, or even on the bare ground, even to occupy the deserted nest of a hawk or crow These structures are large and rough, built of sticks and bark and lined with leaves and feathers Sometimes owls nest on a rocky ledge, or even on the bare ground The mother lays two or three round, dull white eggs Then she stoically settles herself on the nest and spreads her feather skirts about her to protect her precious charges from snow and cold It is five weeks before the first downy white owlet pecks its way out of the shell As the young birds feather out, they look like wise old men with their wide eyes and quizzical expressions They clamour for food and keep the parents busy supplying mice, squirrels, rabbits, crayfish, and beetles Later in the season baby crows are taken Migrating songsters, waterfowl, and game birds all fall prey to the hungry family It is nearly ten weeks before fledglings leave the nest to search for their own food The parent birds weary of family life by November and drive the young owls away to establish hunting ranges of their own Question 44: What is the topic of this passage?
