Text

Some nations have pursued integration with the rest of the world more aggressively than others. The most globalized countries are small nations for which openness allows access to goods, services, and capital that cannot be produced at home. In some cases, geography has played an important role in sustaining integrated markets. The Netherlands, for instance, benefits from (among many other factors) its position at the head of the Rhine, which knits together countries that account for almost three quarters of total Dutch trade. In other cases, such as Sweden and Switzerland, relatively small domestic markets and highly educated workers have given rise to truly global companies capable of competing anywhere in the world. And a host of other factors has contributed to the globalization of other small states. Austria, for example, benefits from heavy travel and tourism, while remittances from large populations living abroad contribute to Ireland’s integration with the outside world.

The main idea of the paragraph

Some nations have pursued integration with the rest of the world more aggressively than others. The most globalized countries are small nations. A host of factors has contributed to the globalization of the small states, including the needs for goods, services and capital that cannot be produced at home, geographical locations, small domestic markets and highly educated workers that have given rise to truly global competitiveness, travel and tourism, etc.

和其他国家相比，有些国家积极寻求与别国的融合。最为全球化的是一些小国，许多因素促成了这些小国的全球化，这些因素包括对本国所无法生产或得到的商品、劳务和资本的需求，地理位置，较小的国内市场，带来全球竞争力的受到良好教育的劳动力，以及旅游等因素。
