3.The economic in China developed quickly.

4.The another problem is…

    Louie: 1. and 6. are spot on.

    With 3. I suggest using economy or economic situation and to say that it ‘has developed’ OR ‘is developing’. In the case of China the latter is probably more suitable as the economy is still growing. They are both very close though

    5. look at the definition of security. ‘With lots of security my house would be ____’ find the word missing and that will give you the correct word for this sentence.

    4. Another is singular so perhaps we can shorten this sentence?

    3.The economic in China developed quickly.
