Question

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案。

　　     It isn't strictly true that one half of the world is rich and the　　 other half is poor. It's one third that is very rich and two-thirds　　 that are very poor.

　　

　　     People in the rich countries don't realize the great difference　　 between them and those in the poorer countries. A very simple example　　 is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in　　 the poorer countries. A fisherman in south America may be catching　　 fish which is processed (加工) into pet food, and his own children are　　 not getting enough to eat for their bodies to develop properly.

　　

　　     Although a lot of the world's natural resources like oil come from　　 these poorer countries, people in the richer countries are probably　　 using sixty times as much of these resources as a person in Asia or　　 Africa. And it's the richer countries that decide what kind of prices　　 they are ready to pay for these resources. And the prices the richer　　 countries get for their own exports (出口货), however, are always　　 rising. So they are getting richer and richer and the poorer countries　　 are getting poorer.
