Answer to Question 1

It made it difficult to export, especially for the traditional commodity producers, which hurt investment and income in rural areas. Non-targeted industries lost sales and production. Industrial investment was too capital intensive and unable to create jobs fast enough to absorb labor leaving rural areas.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both.
