Reading

Infrastructure services are crucial for generating economic growth, alleviating poverty, and increasing international competitiveness. Safe water is essential for life and health. Reliable electricity saves businesses and consumers from having to invest in expensive backup systems. Widely available and affordable telecommunications and transportation services can foster entrepreneurship and so are critical to generating employment.

5) Which of the following statements cannot be supported by the above paragraph?

(A) Infrastructure services play a very important role in improving standard of livings (B) With more support from infrastructure services, domestic firms can compete better in

world markets. (C) Businesses and consumers have to save electricity to avoid having to invest in

expensive backup systems (D) Good transportation services help create jobs

6) The word crucial in line 1 of the paragraph is closest in meaning to

(A) cruel (B) trivial (C) good (D) important

To be counted as world-class, a firm needs to be more than just well run and large. It should have a globally valued brand, or its own leading-edge technology, or a genuinely innovative and admired business method.

Some come close, especially in Singapore, the region's most advanced country. Singapore Airlines is the world's fourth-largest international carrier and is perhaps the region's best-known brand around the world.

7) According to the above paragraph, which of the following is true about a world-class firm?

(A) Its profit grows rapidly (B) It has to be in BCG's top 100 (C) It is able to purchase the latest technology (D) Its product is widely recognized

8) The word these in line 3 of the paragraph refers to

(A) criteria of a world-class firm (B) countries in South-East Asia (C) companies in South-East Asia (D) companies in BCG's top 100
