Trade is central to human health, prosperity and social welfare.【R1】______Examples of trade in daily life are so abundant they sometimes go unnoticed: people drive to work in a car made in Japan which runs on fuel imported from the Middle East.【R2】______A computer might have come from India and may run on software from the United States and a morning cup of coffee was most likely imported from Kenya, Colombia, Tanzania or Ecuador.
Trade enriches our lives through greater choice and opens our minds to new ideas and cultures.【R3】______It is a key engine of economic growth. The prosperity trade brings people the opportunity to buy the things they value most: an education, access to health care, proper housing and food for their families. It is the job of the World Trade Organization to establish the rules and preserve and nurture this web of commercial activity.
But trade is not entirely a natural phenomenon. It depends on political will.【R4】______When crisis set in during the 1930s, the knee-jerk reaction was economic nationalism. As one country raised its tariff barriers, so too did others in retaliation. Trade plummeted, unemployment became entrenched, cooperation between nations broke down and guns, soldiers and tanks took over. The human and economic costs were catastrophic. In stark contrast, when the Asian economies experienced a financial crisis in the late 1990s, markets were kept open and sensible but tough economic policy and regulatory decisions were taken.【R5】______Within a relatively short period of time, these countries were on the road to recovery and fears of worldwide recession were proven unfounded.
Restoring international economic growth and stability through the promotion of trade was crucial to securing a lasting peace after World War II.【R6】______At first this was a provisional agreement between 23 countries called the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade(the GATT).
【R7】______Its membership today includes 142 Members, each at its own level of economic development and with its own set of economic priorities. Since Seattle(November 1999), seven countries joined the WTO — Albania, Croatia, Georgia, Jordan, Lithuania, Moldova and Oman. With China poised to enter the organization, another 1.3 billion people will benefit from the rules-based trading system. Another 30 or so countries — from the Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia and Ukraine to Vietnam and Yemen — are in the process of negotiating their accession to the WTO.【R8】______.
A. In 1995, the GATT became the WTO, a fully-fledged international organization with stronger and broader authority.
B. Many of the goods we buy, the services we use and the foods we eat depend on foreign trade.
C. Others ride bicycles made in China with tires from Malaysia.
D. This helped contain the crisis and it allowed the Asian nations to export their way out of difficulty.
E. It binds people together in a dynamic and complex network of mutually beneficial commercial relations.
F. Compare, for example, the starkly different policy responses to two of the most major economic and financial disasters of this century.
G. It was this vision that led to the creation of the multilateral trading system in 1948.
H. Even though the trading system has changed greatly over the years, the underlying goals of the system embodied in the WTO have remained constant: to promote openness, fairness and predictability in international trade for the benefit of humanity.
