66 Neither a rising standard of living nor balanced trade, by itself, establishes a country's ability to compete in the international marketplace. Both are required simultaneously since standards of living can rise because of growing trade deficits and trade can be balanced by means of a decline in a country's standard of living.
If the facts stated in the passage above are true, a proper test of a country's ability to be competitive is its ability to________________________ -
(A) balance its trade while its standard of living rises
(B) balance its trade while its standard of living falls
(C) increase trade deficits while its standard of
living rises of _ ..:
(D) decrease trade deficits while its standard of living falls
':
(E) keep its standard of living constant while trade deficits rise
这个算什么题型,如果没有背景知识,或者这个相关的常识,那么这题如何做?
原文:Both are required simultaneously since standards of living can rise because of growing trade deficits and trade can be balanced by means of a decline in a country's standard of living.
说了两个事:１．上升的trade赤字能提升生活水平．
２． 生活水平的下降能平衡trade赤字．
就是说trade赤字（下降）和生活水平（上升）是矛盾的．
所以文章说俩加一起才能看出来这个国家的competitive，当然要能做到Ａ，那就是很好的了．
可能有的人能把这个归到一种理论里面．不过我们不懂的话，也能做这题的．
碰到好几个题里都有balance , 不知道有没有确切的含义,是不是就是和前面的一个动作相反,或者前面一个描述(比如上升,下降)相反的一个状态呢?
