Developing nations in all parts of the world face the perennial problem of gaining a higher level of economic growth.

15. Predispose- to incline to beforehand How can you expect to succeed at your new job when you are predisposed to believe that it is “not right” for you? 16. Relinquish- to let go, give up The senator refused to relinquish the floor to any other speaker before he had finished his statement.
