1.Please read the following situation below. Then, write an essay consisting of 3 paragraph.

Elaborate your own opinion with the references related to situation given.

Export and import are two things that are interrelated. Please explain the condition of export and
import in a country which has a healthy economic condition. You can also add the examples to
support your ideas.

Countries that have healthy economic conditions usually have larger export activities than import
activities. This is because countries with strong economic conditions are able to produce the
goods and services they need themselves and can even meet the needs of other countries.
Conversely, countries with weak economic conditions tend to import more goods and services
because they are not sufficiently capable of producing them themselves.

An example of a country that has high export activity and healthy economic conditions is
Germany. Germany is one of the largest countries in Europe and is the largest producer of
automobiles in the world. In addition, Germany is also known as a producer of machinery,
electronic equipment and chemical products. This makes Germany able to export superior
products throughout the world.

Meanwhile, one example of a country that has high import activity and unhealthy economic
conditions is Venezuela. Even though Venezuela has the world's largest reserves of crude oil, it
remains in a deep economic crisis and runs a significant trade deficit. Venezuela imports many
consumer goods from other countries such as rice, oil and pharmaceuticals, causing large trade
balance deficits and high inflation.

In general, countries that have healthy economic conditions have large export activities and small
imports so that they are able to strengthen their currency exchange rates and grow economically.
However, import activities are also important in meeting needs that cannot be produced
domestically, so they must be considered in the economic development of a country.
