Increased trade deficits, possibly due to increased standard of living
Balanced trade, possibly due to decrease in standard of living

i.e. Both Balanced trade and rising standard of living are required simultaneously to be a proper representation of high competitive ability.

Therefore the best test for the competitive ability of a country is...?

A. Balance its trade while its standard of living rises.

This just rephrases what the first line of the argument says and is hence correct.

ohh i did this question a "thousand" times... lol... kidding, i meant i see this question everywhere. i think the OA is B because the argument itself does states that
" balance its trade while decrease standard living" ( sorry, i didnt remember word by words)
