A Country's Standard of Living

The"standard of living"of any country means the average person's share of the goods and services the
country produces.A country's standard of living,therefore____________(51)first on its capacity to produce
wealth."Wealth"in this____________(52)is not money,for we do not live on money but on things that money
can buy:"goods",such as food and clothing,and"services",such as transport and entertainment.
A country's capacity to____________(53)wealth depends upon many factors,most of____________(54)
have an effect on one another.Wealth depends_(55)a great extent upon a country's natural re-
sources.Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have fertile(肥沃的)soil
and a favorable climate;other regions_____________(56)none of them.
Next to natural resources comes the ability to_____________(57)them to use.China is perhaps as rich as
the USA in natural resources,but she suffered for many years____________(58)civil and external wars,and
for this and other_____________(59)was unable to develop her resources.Sound and stable political conditions,
and_____________(60)from foreign invasions,enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and
steadily,and to produce more_____________( 61)than another country equally well favored by nature but less
well ordered.
A country's standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and_____________(62)
within its own borders,but also upon what is directly produced through international trade.For example,
Britain's wealth in food stuffs and other agricultural_____________(63)would be much less if she had to de-
pend only on those grown at home.Trade makes it possible for her surplus(剩余的)manufactured goods to
be traded abroad for the agricultural products_____________(64)would otherwise be lacking.A eountry'B
wealth is,therefore,much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,_____________(65)that other countries can
be found ready to accept its manufactures. 57._________
