Reading Comprehension Section A:Direction: Read the following text. Answer

18、 the questions below the text according to the text. (20 points)The infant-industry argument contends that protective tariffs are needed to allow new domestic industries to establish themselves. Temporarily shielding young domestic firms from the severe competition of foreign firms will give infant

19、industries a chance to develop and become efficient producers.This argument for protection rests on an alleged exception to the case for free trade. The exception is that all industries have not had, and in the presence of mature foreign competition, will never have, the chance to make long-run adju

20、stments in scale and efficiency. Tariff protection for infant industries will therefore correct a current misallocation of world resources.Counterarguments hold that although the infant-industry argument has logical validity, these qualifying points must be noted.1. In the less developed nations it

21、is very difficult to determine which industries are the infants capable of achieving economic maturity and therefore deserving protection.2. Protective tariffs may persist even after industrial maturity has been realized.3. Most economists feel that if infant industries are to be subsidized, there a

22、re better means than tariffs for doing it. Direct subsidies, for example, have the advantage of making explicit which industries are being aided and to what degree.In recent years the infant-industry argument has taken a modified form in advanced economies. The contention is that the government shou

23、ld use trade barriers strategically to reduce the risk of product development borne by domestic firms, particularly products involving advanced technology. Firms protected from foreign competition can grow more rapidly and therefore achieve greater economies of scale than unprotected from foreign co

24、mpetitors. Thus, the protected firms can eventually dominate world markets because of lower costs. Supposedly, dominance of world markets will enable the domestic firms to return high profits to the home nation. These profits allegedly will exceed the domestic sacrifices caused by trade barriers. Al

25、so, specialization in high-technology industries supposedly is beneficial because technology advances achieved in one domestic industry often can be transferred to other domestic industries.Japan and South Korea, in particular, have been accused of using this form of strategic trade policythe proble

26、m with this strategy and therefore this argument for tariffs is that the nations put at a disadvantage by strategic trade policies tend to retaliate with tariffs of their own. The outcome may be higher tariffs worldwide, reductions in world trade, and loss of the gains from specialization and exchan

27、ge.1. What does infant-industry argument contend?2. What is the general idea of “strategic trade policy”?3. Why do protectionists believe that protected firms will dominate world markets?4. What actions will the nations at a disadvantage take?5. What is the possible outcome of tariff protection?Sect

28、ion B:Directions: Read the following two texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. (20 points)Text 1In a sense, the new protectionism is not protectionism at all, at least not in the traditional sense of the term. The old protectionism referred only to trade-restricting a

29、nd trade-expanding devices, such as the tariff or export subsidy（津貼）. The new protectionism is much broader than this; it includes interventions（干涉） into foreign trade but is not limited to them. The new protectionism, in fact, refers to how the whole of government intervention into the private econ

30、omy affects international trade. The emphasis on trade is still there, thus came the term “protection”. But what is new is the realization that virtually all government activities can affect international economic relations.The emergence of the new protectionism in the Western world reflects the vic

31、tory of the interventionist, or welfare economy over the market economy. Jab Tumiler writes, “The old protectionismcoexisted, without any apparent intellectual difficulty with the acceptance of the market as a national as well as an international economic distribution mechanism-indeed, protectionist

32、s as well as (if not more than) free traders stood for laissez-faire(放任政策). Now, as in the 1930s, protectionism is an expression of a profound skepticism as to the ability of the market to distribute resources and incomes to societies satisfaction.”It is precisely this profound skepticism of the mar

33、ket economy that is responsible for the protectionism. In a market economy, economic change of various colors implies redistribution of resources and incomes. The same opinion in many communities apparently is that such redistributions often are not proper. Therefore, the government intervenes(干涉；干預(yù)

34、)to bring about a more desired result.The victory of the welfare state is almost complete in northern Europe. In Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and the Netherlands, government intervention in almost all aspects of economic and social life is considered normal. In Great Britain this is only somewh

35、at less true. Government traditionally has played a very active role in economic life in France and continued to do so. Only West Germany dares to go against the tide towards excessive interventionism in Western Europe. It also happens to be the most successful Western European economy. The welfare

36、state has made significant progress in the United States as well as in Western Europe. Social security, unemployment insurance, minimum wage laws, and rent control are by now traditional welfare state elements on the American scene.1According to the passage above, the traditional sense of the term “

37、protectionism” refers toA. self-examinationB. how all the government activities affect international economic relations.C. how the whole of government intervention into the private economy affects international tradeD. trade-restricting and trade-expanding devices2This passage is primarily concerned

38、 with discussing-. A. the definition of the new protectionism. B. the difference between new and old protectionism. C. the emergence of the new protectionism in the Western world. D. the significance of the welfare state. 3Which of the following statements is NOT a characteristic of a welfare state

39、mentioned in this passage? A. Free education is available to a child. B. Laws are made to fix the minimum wage. C. A jobless person can be insured. D. There are regulations for rent. 4. Which of the following inferences is true, according to this passage? A. The economy developed faster in welfare s

40、tates than in non-welfare states. B. In the 1930s, protectionism began to rise. C. The new protectionism is so called mainly because it is the latest. D. Government plays a more active role in economic life in Northern Europe than in Great Britain. 5. The passage supplies information for answering w

41、hich of the following questions? A. When did the new protectionism arise?B. Why is the new protectionism so popular in northern European countries?C. Does the American government play a more active role in economic life than the British government?D. Why does the government intervene in economic lif

42、e?Text 2European farm ministers have ended three weeks of negotiations with a deal which they claim represents genuine reform of the common agricultural policy(CAP). Will it be enough to kickstart the Doha world trade negotiations?On the face of it, the deal agreed in the early hours of Thursday Jun

43、e 26th looks promising. Most subsidies linked to specific farm products are, at last, to be brokenthe idea is to replace these with a direct payment to farmers, unconnected to particular products. Support prices for several key products, including milk and butter, are to be cutthat should mean Europ

44、ean prices eventually falling towards the world market level. Cutting the link between subsidy and production was the main objective of proposals put forward by Mr. Fischler, which had formed the starting point for the negotiations.The CAP is hugely unpopular around the world. It subsidises European

45、 farmers to such an extent that they can undercut farmers from poor countries, who also face trade barriers that largely exclude them from the potentially lucrative European market. Farm trade is also a key feature of the Doha round of trade talks, launched under the auspices of the World Trade Orga

46、nization (WTO) in November 2001. Developing countries have lined up alongside a number of industrial countries to demand an end to the massive subsidies Europe pays its farmers. Several Doha deadlines have already been missed because of the EUs (European Union) intransigence(不讓步), and the survival o

47、f the talks will be at risk if no progress is made by September, when the worlds trade ministers meet in Cancn, Mexico.But now even the French seem to have gone along with the deal hammered out in Luxembourg. Up to a point, anyway. The package of measures gives the green light for the most eager ref

48、ormers to move fast to implement the changes within their own countries. But there is an escape clause of sorts for the French and other reform-averse nations. They can delay implementation for up to two years. There is also a suggestion that the reforms might not apply where there is a chance that they would lead to a reduction in land under cultivation.These let-outs are potentially damaging for Europes negotiators in the Doha round. They could significantly reduce the cost savings that the reforms might otherwise
