Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.40 Interdependence and Globalization skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Many students from a small country study engineering abroad. Some stay overseas, but many return home, start companies, and attract investors from other countries.

Which statement best describes the pattern in this passage?

AOnly goods move across borders.

BStudying abroad prevents investment at home.

CGlobalization always causes brain drain only.

DThis is brain circulation: people and ideas move out and back, and capital can follow new opportunities.

Solution & Explanation:Students carry skills and ideas across borders. When they return and build businesses, they bring knowledge home, and investors may send capital to support new companies.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Several countries create a humanitarian corridor so refugees can cross borders safely. At the same time, they coordinate food shipments and share school lessons for refugee children.

Which statement best explains the different types of global connections in this response?

AOnly people are moving; goods and ideas are not involved.

BOnly goods are moving; people and ideas are not involved.

CPeople, goods, and ideas are all moving across borders to address the crisis.

DNothing crosses borders during a crisis.

Solution & Explanation:Refugees show movement of people, food shipments show movement of goods, and shared lessons show movement of ideas. The response depends on multiple cross-border flows.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A country wants to mine metals for rechargeable batteries. The project could create jobs and exports, but it could also damage rivers used by nearby farms.

Which policy best balances the benefits and challenges described?

AMine without any rules to maximize speed.

BAllow mining but require strong environmental protections and monitoring to reduce harm to water and farms.

CBan all mining and ban all trade.

DIgnore the river because it is unrelated to farming.

Solution & Explanation:Mining can bring income and global trade benefits, but it can harm the environment. Environmental protections and monitoring aim to keep jobs and exports while reducing damage.
