SSC CHSL Mock Test -15 - Question 17

Read the passage and answer the following questions. 

Chinese industries are not only getting closer to the technological frontier in conventional areas such as electronics, machinery, automobiles, high-speed railways and aviation, but also driving technological innovations in emerging areas such as new and renewable energy, advanced nuclear energy, next generation telecommunication technologies, big data and supercomputers, A.I., robotics, space technology, and e-commerce. Statistical data — such as the volume of exports and amount of sales and investment in these Chinese industries — provide evidence to the rise in technological capability. According to data from the World Bank, the payments China made for intellectual property in 2015 were 22 times more than those it received from the rest of the world. What the rest of the world paid to China for intellectual property use was less than 1 percent of the amount paid to the United States. Productivity analysis also indicates a low return for China’s excessive R&D activities, as its Total Factor Productivity (TFP) follows a weaker track, even compared to other developing economies such as India. China’s labor productivity growth remains the highest around the world, but it has been slowing down in the recent decade, despite the rising technological capacities. This puzzling picture may remind observers of how the Soviet Union excelled in science and technology in the 1970s and ‘80s, but mostly focused on military and space technologies, which translated very minimally into gains in productivity and economic performance. That mismatch eventually led to the collapse of the regime; such a model is certainly not sustainable.
