That the income gap between high-income and low-income countries has grown wider is a matter for concern. And the number of the world's citizens in abject poverty is deeply disturbing. But it is wrong to jump to the conclusion that globalization has caused the divergence,or that nothing can be done to improve the situation. To the contrary:low-income countries have not been able to integrate with the global economy as quickly as others,partly because of their chosen policies and partly because of actors out of their control.
【正确答案】：高收入国家和低收入国家之间收入差距的拉大值得关注，处于赤贫中的人口数量也让人焦虑，但因此就得出结论认为是全球化导致了这一差异或认为人类对此无能为力却是错误的。正相反，低收入国家之所以不能像其他国家那样迅速与全球经济融合，部分是由于这些国家的政策所致，另一部分是由于一些不可控因素所致。
