Next week, according to United Nations projections(预测), the world will pass seven billion in population, and by the end of this century it’s likely to grow by half again to ten billion.
What will determine their quality of life? From an economist’s view, what matters is the productivity of the ten billion—will they be educated and have jobs that contribute to economic growth? From a sociologist’s view, what matters is whether the ten billion are socialized into stable roles in society—can they build families and join communities where they have dignity and focus on building for the future? From a political scientist’s view, what matters is the quality of government in countries where most of the ten billion will live—will those governments avoid corruption, enforce the rule of law, and protect participation and civil rights?
At present, the prospects are not bright. While most of the world’s capital, managerial experience, and engineering expertise is concentrated in the high-income and emerging economies of Europe, China, North America, and Japan, none of those areas will be significant contributors to future population growth. Even China, is now reaping(获得)the results of its one-child policy and is projected to suffer a decline in population of 400 million by 2100.
Three billion additional people will join the world this century, and virtually all of them will be growing up in countries that today are rated by the George Mason University Fragile States Index as having governments that have serious, high, or extreme fragility. These are governments that do not enforce the rule of law, have high rates of internal violence, and do a poor job providing education and jobs for their people. [br] From an economist’s view, it’s important if the ten billion people would contribute to______.
选项
答案
economic growth
解析
由题干中的an economist’s view和theten billion定位到第二段第二句。该句指出,在经济学家看来,重要的是这100亿人口的生产力一一他们能否受到良好教育并且拥有能够对经济增长做贡献的工作,由此可知空格处应填economic growth。
