Answer:
d. A few decades ago, China would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing.
Explanation:
Prior to joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), China wasn't open about it's economic activities or policy to other countries across the world. This simply means the Chinese government was very secretive about the happening in it's country and as such would not allow outsiders to see what it was doing or it's engagements.
However, joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) made them to be more open to other countries, which was a key factor for their unprecedented economic growth and development.
Hence, China was able to trade globally, capturing many markets and attracting foreign investment which boosted it's economy greatly.
Furthermore, China joining the WTO was at the detriment of the Western World (USA, Canada, UK, Germany etc) as it resulted in the loss of millions of jobs.
Globalization leads to instability, noticeably in the Third-world. We must also make sure that globalization reaches all extents of the globe, along with this however there becomes lots of competition between countries and eventually different industries get run into the ground (prices and wages get too low for the company to maintain itself).
Two days after the U.S. Senate voted 82 to 6 to declare war against Germany, the U.S. House of Representatives endorses the declaration by a vote of 373 to 50, and America formally enters World War I.
I believe the answer is A. Production increased due to the demand for goods worldwide.
