Read the text carefully and answer the question: 'In the modern global economy, abundance often disguises itself as prosperity while concealing fragility underneath. Supermarkets lined with exotic fruits from distant continents... create the perception that scarcity has been defeated. Yet, this spectacle of plenty is precarious... Economists warn that the illusion of abundance is less about resources than about distribution and sustainability... A resilient economy values sufficiency over extravagance, durability over speed, and balance over frenzy. Measured this way, prosperity is less about what shelves display and more about whether communities can adapt when shelves empty.' What is the correct inference drawn from the passage?
- 1True prosperity is measured by resilience, not superficial plenty✓
- 2Globalization has eliminated all risks of scarcity
- 3Wastefulness is backward, while moderation is modern
- 4Abundance always guarantees long-term security
Correct answer
True prosperity is measured by resilience, not superficial plenty
