Answer to Question 1

General equilibrium is the condition that exists when all markets in an economy are in simultaneous equilibrium.

Answer to Question 2

The distribution of income in China can be getting more unequal even when the poorest 20 percent are getting richer because the richest 20 percent are getting richer even faster. Because the rich are getting richer fast-er, the fraction of the nation's total income received by the poorest 20 percent falls, which makes the personal distribution of income more un-equal.
