India’s extreme levels of air pollution are well recognized, and examining the effects provides clear warnings for other countries eking fast growth through rapid industrialization.

Section A 15%
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phras marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phra that best fits the context.
Globalization: Good or Bad?
Globalization is defined in many ways. One simple __41__ is that it is the rapid increa in international free trade, investment, and technological exchange. It is argued that this international trade has been one of the main caus of world economic __42__ over the past half century. Although there is little doubt that the global economy has developed enormously in the last 50 years, some people believe that this trend has only benefited certain countries, and that o thers have suffered as a result.
Improved income?
An argument __43__ globalization is that the benefits of incread international trade are shared among everyone in the country. An example of this is China, where per capita income (人均收入) ro from about $1400 in 1980 to over $4000 by 2000. __44__, per capita income ro by over 100% in India between 1980 and 1996. It would appear that countries which open their doors to world trade tend to become __45__.
However, the sorts of __46__ might not be giving a true picture. They are “average”, and despite the fact that there has been a substantial increa in income for a small minority of people, the vast majority have only en a __47__ improvement.
More imports, more exports
Supporters of free trade point out that there is another direct benefit to be gained from an increa in international trade: exports __48__ imports. Take coffee as an example. Countries which produce and export coffee import the packaging for it: a(n) __49__ trade which enables commerce to develop in two countries at the same time.
__50__ maintain that, in general, it is poorer countries that produce and export food such as coffee, and richer countries that produce and export manufactured goods such as packaging materials. Furthermore, it is the richer countries that control the price of goods and, __51__, farmers may be forced to ll their produce at a low price and to buy manufactured goods at a high price.
__52__ development
lover什么意思
Finally, globalization often __53__ a country to concentrate on industries which are already successf
ul. The countries develop experti (专门技能) and increa their share in the international market. On the other hand, tho countries which __54__ to support all their industries usually do not develop experti in any one. Conquently, the countries do not find a world market for their goods and do not increa their gross domestic product (GDP).
Anti-globalists claim that there is a rious 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. The imported goods are frequently overpriced, and the countries, therefore, have a tendency to accumulate huge debts.

The Harlem Renaissance
The word “renaissance” means “rebirth.” The Harlem Renaissance took place during the 1920s. It was a time when the African American artistic community grew and flourished, producing a ton of work in a short period of time. The work celebrated African American culture and spoke to their experiences as minorities — both the good parts and the bad parts.
After the Civil War, many African Americans left the South to escape unfair treatment and laws that discriminated against them. Between 1910 and 1920, massive numbers of black Southerners moved from the rural south into the urban North and West in the Great Migration. The African American population of Chicago more than doubled during that time! And in New York, African Americans flocked to uptown Manhattan, ttling in a neighborhood called Harlem. Forming a community within the big city let African Americans keep their cultural identity in a white-dominated society. It was a good thing, and a lot of important cultural issues were brought to light during the Harlem Renaissance. One of the most important figures of the time was the African American writer, W.E.B. Du Bois. In his book, The Souls of Black Folk, in 1903, Du Bois wrote that African Americans suffered from something called “double consciousness”. They had their own
