30、，共10分） 二、选择题（每题3分，共45分） bcdba acacb dbccd三、简答题（共45分） 1、(1) 封闭条件下，本国可以用一半的生产一单位布的劳动时间生产一单位黄油。这表示，在封闭条件下，本国黄油与布的相对价格是1/2，外国黄油与布的相对价格是2。（2分）（2）根据上面的相对价格，表明本国生产黄油有比较优势，外国的比较优势是生产布。（2分）（3）如果两国发生国际贸易，国际比价应该落在封闭条件下本国和外国国内相对价格之间。（2分）（4）如果世界市场价格为1，本国通过出口黄油，进口布，用一单位黄油可以换得1单位布，比在本国用两单位黄油换一单位布多获得一单位黄油的利益。（2分） 2
