Now, a nation’s political influence depends on______.
Nowadays, the standard for measuring power has changed. These changes foretell a new standard for measuring power. (18)No longer will a nation’s political influence be based solely on the strength of its military forces. Of course, military effectiveness will remain a primary measure of power. But political influence is also closely tied to industrial competitiveness. (19)It’s often said that without its military the Soviet Union would really be a third-world nation. The new standard of power and influence that is evolving now places more emphasis on the ability of a country to compete effectively in the economic markets of the world. America must recognize this new course of events. (20) Our success in shaping world events over the past 40 years has been the direct result of our ability to adapt technology and to take advantage of the capabilities of our people for the purpose of maintaining peace. Our industrial prowess over most of this period was unchallenged. It is ironic that it is just this prowess that has enabled other countries to prosper and in turn to threaten our industrial leadership. The competitiveness of America’s industrial base is an issue bigger than the Department of Defense and is going to require the efforts of the major institutional forces in our society, government, industry and education.
选项
A、the strength of its military forces
B、its ability to compete in industry
C、economic markets
D、both A and B
答案
D
解析
推理题。短文一开始开篇点题,说如今衡量国力大小的标准发生了变化,军事力量的大小不再是决定一个国家政治影响力的唯一因素;相比之下,一个国家的在国际市场上的综合经济竞争力更为重要,故D为正确答案。
