Directions (Q. 151165) :Read the following passage carefully and answer the
questions given below it. Certain words have been printed in bold to help you
locate them while answering some of the questions.
Over the past few decades, many Asian nations transformed from poverty into
global competitors. From 2003 to 2007, Asian economies expanded at an average
annual rate of 8.1% triple that of advanced economies. Over the same period,
inflation in Asia averaged only about 3.5%. But Asia could be facingturbulent
economic times. I n May, the average inflation rate throughout the region reached
nearly 7%, led by spikes in oil and food prices! I n I ndia, inflation jumped to an
11.6% annual rate in J une, according to the latest government figures, the
highest in 13 years.
Policymakers and central bankers are forced to raise interest rates and limit
credit to get inflation under control. But these same measures suppress the
investment and consumption that generates growth. The combination of slowing
growth and soaring inflation makes ecomimc policymaking tricky. I nflation
stires up the middle classes because it can quickly erase years of hard-won
personal gains. I nflation is cruel to the poor, because families have to spend a
larger share of their meagre incomes on necessities. I n the Philippines, farmers,
unable to afford fuel for tractors, use water buffaloes to plow their fields.
But to avoid unrest, leaders cannot blindly adopt rigid anti-inflation measures.
Voters wont hesitate to remove from office any politican who doesnt deliver
the goods. So they cannot overreact to the inflation threat and scale down
PRACTICE PAPER-II (I.B.P.S. CWE IT OFFICERS) 19
economic growth in the process. Developing nations need to grow quickly to
create jobs and increase incomes for their large populations. With prices soaring,
doing nothing is not an option. Most central banks in Asia have started raising
interest rates. The Reserve Bank of I ndia increased its benchmark rate twice
last month to a six-year high of 8.5%.
The challenge in especially difficult because currently, inflation is not of domestic
origin. Prices are being driven higher by a global surge in oil and food prices,
which individual governments can do little to control. Of course, inflation is not
just a problem in Asia. World Bank President Robert Zoellick called rising food
and oil prices a man-made catastrophe that could quickly reverse the gains
made in overcoming poverty over the past seven years. For now, though, there
is more talk than action on the international front, so Asian governments are
on their own.
Even though inflation throughout the region is likely to continue to rise in
coming months, no one is expecting an economic calamity. According to the
Asian Development Bank, Asian countries have large hard currency reserves
and relatively healthy banks, and so are far better prepared to absorb external
shocks than they were during the regions last recession ten years ago. Asian
policymakers have learned their lessons and are more alert.
151.Which of the following can be said about Asian economies during the period
2003-207?

attention.

(B) Check on lending
(C) Subsidising fuel for farmers
(a) Only (B) (b) Both (A) & (B) (c) Both (B) & (C)
(d)Only (C) (e) None of these
153.What makes it difficult for Asian countries to control inflation?
(a) Economic growth cannot occur in the absence of inflation.
(b) Governments are indecisive and adopt counter productive measures.
(c) The problem is global in nature and not restricted to their individual countries.
(d)Countries have never faced a financial cirsis
(e) Restrictions by organisations like the Asian Development Bank
154.Why are experts not very concerned about the impact of inflation on Asian
economies?
