16、ar from globalization, and a lot to gain. But is the same thing true for workers in poor countries? The answer is that they are ever more likely than their rich-country counterparts to benefit, because they have less to lose and more to gain.Traditional economies takes an optimistic line on integrat
17、ion(一体化) and the developing countries. Openness to foreign trade and investment should encourage capital to flow to poor economies. In the developing world, capital is scarce, so the returns on investment there should be higher than in the industrialized countries, where the best opportunities to ma
18、ke money by adding capital to labour have already been used up. If poor countries lower their barriers to trade and investment, the theory goes, rich foreigners will want to send to over some of their capital.If this inflow of resources arrives in the form of loans or portfolio investment（组合投资）, it
19、will top up domestic savings and loosen the financial restriction on additional investment by local companies. If it arrives in the form of new foreign-controlled operations，FDI，so much the better；this kind of capital brings technology and skills from abroad packaged along with it, with less financi
20、al risk as well. In either case，the addition to investment ought to push incomes up, partly by raising the demand for labour and partly by making labour more productive.This is why workers in FDI-receiving countries should be in an even better position to profit from integration than workers in FDI-
21、sending countries. Also, with or without inflows of foreign capital, the same gains from trade should apply in developing countries as in rich ones. This gains from trade logic often arouses suspicion, because the benefits seem to come from nowhere. Surely one side or the other must lose. Not so. Th
22、e benefits that a rich country gets through trade do not come at the expense of its poor country trading partners, or vice versa. Recall that according to the theory, trade is a positive sum game. In all these trades, both sidesexporters and importers, borrowers and lenders, shareholders and workers
23、 can gain.5.

All aspects involved in the trade can get benefit.CWhen my old dog developed major health problems, I knew that watching him fail would be painful, but I wasnt prepared for the powerf
26、ul lessons hed offer in the last year of his life.Chance was 14 when the problems started. First, he developed a cancer that left him whistling for breath. Then came cataracts（白内障）in both eyes, arthritis（关节炎）in his legs, and a series of mini-strokes（小中风）that threw off his balance. Any one of these m
27、isfortunes would have left me begging for relief, but Chance became calmer as the disabilities piled up.When leg pain left him frozen on the floor, unable to rise for a quick pat as I came home, he didnt complain. He just lay there patiently, signaling me with his hammering tail, each movement spell
28、ing out the value of waiting for the things you want. When his cataracts made steering impossible after dark, hed stand calmly until I could guide him inside, proving how easy it is to find happiness if you let go of your pride and insecurities and learn to lean on those who love you.When mini-strok
29、es had him walk unsteadily like a drunk, he taught the value of persistence. For days after each attack, hed fall as he moved about. Yet again and again hed try to walk, each day moving a few more steps until finally he was able to get outside and back by himself.There were lessons in so much of wha
30、t he did, but the key one surely was the importance of obtaining all the joy possible from each experience whether its a day lazing under a warm sun or a few minutes appreciating a favorite meal.For most of our life together, Chance was always rushing ahead, searching out new adventures, then circli
31、ng back to let me know what lay around the next turn. As an old dog, he did the same thing, using his attitude, instead of his once-fast legs, to show the way.8. Chance suffered very much from all the diseases he had except for_.A. having problem with breathB.walking around awkwardly B. having troub

It is implied in the passage that_.A.people might suffer from different diseases when they grow old B.people could face aging with courage and dignity C.pets would become calmer for lack of energy in their last days D.pets and masters should stick together helping each
34、 other in difficulty11. Which of the following words best describes the authors feelings to Chance？A. BitterB.AppreciativeC.ProudD. SympatheticDA scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged
35、 in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing.Right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologist have argued that this playis more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. E
36、ach time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls in the groundand, in the process, it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not float in midst, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing the basic
37、 fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact.Though their ranges and tools differ, the babys investigation and the sc
38、ientists experiment appear to share the same aim, to learn about the natural world, overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way t
39、hat they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from wh
40、at he or she has. For example, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesnt like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seems to be so muc
41、h alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effortthe desire to explore, explain, and understand our worldis simply something that comes from our babyhood.Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make
42、 use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children
43、.”12. We learn from Paragraph 2 that_.A. scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB. scientists and babies often interact with each otherC. babies are born with the knowledge of object support D. babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do13.

What is the main idea of the last paragraph？A. The world may be more clearly explained through childrens play.B. Studying babies play may lead to a b
45、etter understanding of science.C. Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists D. Ones drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.15. What is the authors tone when he discusses the connection between scientists research and babies play？A.Imposing.B.Confus
