Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

New Zealanders may stand to benefit from increased investmentsalthough
some groups, such as the urbanites, may benefit more so. Depending on the type of connections,
other groups may disproportionately experience adverse effects; this holds, for example, if
agricultural relations are altered. The Maoris may specifically experience negative effects if
increased foreign investment leads to land-grabbing.
