📖 While Reading: Text and Comprehension

Read the following text carefully and answer the questions below:

The world's countries are often classified into two main categories: developed and developing nations. Developed countries, such as the United Kingdom, Japan, and Australia, typically have high GDP per capita (above $12,000), excellent infrastructure including modern hospitals and transportation systems, and literacy rates above 95%. Citizens in these nations generally enjoy longer life expectancy (75-85 years) and have access to quality healthcare and education.

In contrast, developing countries like Bangladesh, Nigeria, and Bolivia face significant challenges. These nations often have lower GDP per capita (below $4,000), limited infrastructure with poor road networks and inadequate healthcare facilities, and literacy rates that may be as low as 60-70%. Life expectancy is typically shorter (50-70 years), and many people lack access to clean water and electricity. However, developing countries often have higher birth rates and younger populations, which can provide opportunities for future economic growth.
