TEST OF ENGLISH
Directions (41-50) : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/phrases are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of
the questions.
Over the past few decades, many asian nations transformed from poverty into global competitors. From
2003 to 2007, Asian economies expanded at an average annual rate of 8.1%, triple that of advanced economies. Over the same period, inflation in asia averaged only about 3.5%. But Asia could be facing turbulent
economic times. In May, the average inflation rate throughout the region reached nearly 7%, led by spikes in
oil and food prices! In India, inflation jumped to an 11.6% annual rate in June, according to the latest govt.
figures, the highest in 13 years.
Policymakers and central bankers are forced to raise interest rates and limit credit to get inflation under
control. But these same measures suppress the investment and consumption that generates growth. The combination of slowing growth and soaring inflation makes economic policymaking tricky. Inflation stirs up the
middle classes because it can quickly erase years of hard won personal gains. Inflation is cruel to the poor,
because families have to spend a larger share of their meagre incomes on necessities. In the Philippines,
farmers, unable to afford fuel for tractors, use water buffaloes to plow their fields.
But to avoid unrest, leaders cannot blindly adopt tigid anti-inflation measures. Votors wont hesitate to
remove from office any politician who doesnt deliver the goods. So they cannot overreact to the inflation
threat and scale down economic growth in the process. Developing nations need to nomic growth in the
process. Developing nations need to grow quickly to create jobs and increase incomes for their large populations. With prices soaring, doing nothing is not an option. Most central banks in Asia have started raising
interest rates. The RBI increased its benchmark rate twice last month to a six year high of 8.5%.
The challenge is especially difficult because currently, inflation is not of domestic origin. Prices are being
driven higher by a global surge in oil and food prices, which individual governments can do little to control. Of
course, inflation is not just a problem in Asia. World Bank President Robert Zoellick called rising food and oil
prices a man-made catastrophe that could quickly reverse the gains made in overcoming poverty over the
past seven years. For now, though, there is more talk than action on the international front, so Asian governments are on their own.
Evven though inflation throughout the region is likely to continue to rise in coming months, no one is
expecting an economic calamity. According to the Asian Development Bank, Asian countries have large hard
currency reserves and relatively healthy banks, an so are far better prepared to absorb external shocks than
they were during the regions last recession ten years ago. Asian policymakers have learned their lessons and
are more alert.
41. Which of the following can be said about Asian economies during the priod 2003-07 ?
(A) Though inflation was rising at the time politicians did not pay much attention.
(B) Many of the poor countries were able to complete internationally.
(C) The growth rate of Asian countries was facilitated by growth in advanced countries.
(1) All, A, B and C (2) only A
(3) only B
(4) Both A and B
