Several of the most important nonfuel mineral resources
 
  a. are in danger of imminent depletion, and it is therefore important that substitutes
  be found in the immediate near-term future.
  b. are produced in few locations, and this has given rise to some fear that mineral
  resource cartels modeled after OPEC will be formed to control mineral production
  and prices.
  c. have become extremely expensive in the 1990s, leading to fears that a resourceinduced
  economic collapse will take place later this decade.
  d. are produced only in Russia. Thus, if communists return to power there, they
  could still hurt the West economically by stopping mineral exports.

Question 2

What has the status of world food production been over the last 20 years?
 
  a. Food production has generally grown more rapidly than population, but
  problems of food distribution remain.
  b. Population growth has been faster than food production growth, but problems of
  food distribution have been solved.
  c. Food production has grown more rapidly than population, and distribution
  problems have been solved.
  d. Population growth has been faster than food production growth, and food
  distribution problems remain.
