(C) provide contrasting examples of a trend that is influencing the world economy

(D) identify the most important characteristics of successful economic integration（C）

The last sentence:

    

Nonetheless, although markedly
different in origin and nature, both regional developments are highly
significant in that they will foster integration in the two largest and richest
markets of the world, as well as provoke questions about the future direction
of the world trading system.

"different in origin and nature" suggets contrast.
