E3: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
The World Trade Organization came into being in 1995. One of the youngest of the international
organizations, the WTO is the successor to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) established
in the wake of the Second World War. So while the WTO is relatively young, the multilateral trading system
that was originally set up under the GATT is over 70 years old.
The past 70 years have seen an exceptional growth in world trade. Merchandise exports have grown on
average by 6% annually. This growth in trade has been a powerful engine for overall economic expansion
and on average trade has grown by 1.5 times more than the global economy each year. Total exports in 2016
were 250 times the level of 1948. The GATT and the WTO have helped to create a strong and prosperous
trading system contributing to unprecedented growth.
The system was developed through a series of trade negotiations, or rounds, held under the GATT. The first
rounds dealt mainly with tariff reductions but later negotiations included other areas such as anti-dumping
and non-tariff measures. The 1986-94 round – the Uruguay Round – led to the WTO’s creation.
