40、The country of Sacchar can best solve its current trade deficit problem by lowering the price of sugar, its primary export. Such an action would make Sacchar better able to compete for markets with other sugar-exporting countries. The sale of Sacchar’s sugar abroad would increase, and this increase would substantially reduce Sacchar’s trade deficit

请问提纲怎么列？

the conclusion is: the trade deficit problem can be best solved lowering the sugar price.

the supportive reasons are:

1.  more comeptive in exporting market.

2.  sales will increase to reduce the trade deficit.

So，

1。 the lowered price gives no additional advantage to that sugar company, for example, those importing countries pay more attention to quality.  so no help for sales increase.

2。 even if it will be a help for the sales, the trade deficit is caused by other reasons.  for example, sugar exports account for only 1% in the whole export.

3。best solve the problem. since no comparison and contrast, how can the speaker says best?

I know my reasoning is just all bullshit. hehe, but that is the way ETS expects us to follow.....

By the way, would you mind editting the title of your post? post the AA *** (number) in it so others can search it out next time.  thanks.
