Answer to Question 1

False
RATIONALE: Today, South Africa's GDP (PPP) is 12,700 (similar to that of Brazil), but there is still a huge economic gulf between the haves (mostly whites) and have-nots (mostly blacks). There remains a large black underclass, and an overall unemployment rate of 25 percent (50 percent among youth ages 1524) fuels an ongoing epidemic of petty and violent crime, especially in the cities.

Answer to Question 2

C
