Chip flow interrupted

A stable global supply chain of chips had been maintained before disruptive moves by the US.

Two of the US’ top chipmakers—NVIDIA and AMD-were ordered to stop exports of two high-end chips to China on Aug 31. The ban     1     sophisticated (精密的) chips for graphics processing units (GPUs); which have been widely used in applications including AI and creative production.

This came after US President Joe Biden signed an order to pass the $52.7 billion (about 369.5 billion yuan) semiconductor chip manufacturing subsidy (补贴) and research law on Aug 25.

It aims to     2     efforts to “make the United States more competitive with China’s science and technology efforts”, Reuters noted.

Biden also signed the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 into law on Aug 9. According to the act, chip makers that shift their factories to the US can receive subsidies and tax benefits with     3     conditions that restrict US companies from increasing investments in China for 10 years.

“The US and its allies,” Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google and a financier for the Bill Clinton, Obama and Biden presidential campaigns, said in March, “should utilize targeted export controls on high-end semiconductor manufacturing equipment... to protect     4     technical advantages and slow the advancement of China’s semiconductor industry”.

In     5     to the US latest act, Woo Jin-hoon, a guest professor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, wrote for China Daily, this is “a move that can be profitable for the US in the short term, but harmful in the long run”.

The design, manufacturing and even raw materials of a complete and complex product like semiconductors (especially chips) are usually     6     across many different countries and regions, forming a huge trade network.

No matter how hard countries or regions try to support their own manufacturing bases and     7     their production, a certain degree of interdependence among countries and regions is unavoidable, China Daily commented.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on Sept 1 at a press     8     that the US move is typical “sci-tech hegemony (霸权)”.

“With its technological advantages, the US has abused the concept of national security and its state power to     9     down on the development of     10     economies and developing countries,” said Wang. “The move violates market economy principles, harms international economic and trade orders and disrupts the stability of global industrial and supply chains.”

The world is barreling(moving quickly)down a path to heat up by four degrees at the end of the century if the global community fails to act on climate change, the World Bank said Sunday in a report.

Among the consequences are series of cataclysmic changes(灾难性的变化)that include extreme heat-waves,     1     global food stocks and a sea-level rise affecting hundreds of millions of people, it warned.

All regions of the world would suffer-some more than others-but the Turn Down the Heat report finds that the     2     will suffer the most.

“A four degrees warmer world can, and must be,     3     -we need to hold warming below two degrees,” said World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim in the report.

“Climate change is one of the single biggest challenges     4     development, and we need to assume the moral     5     to take action on behalf of future generations, especially the poorest,” it said.

“The Earth system's     6     to climate change appear to be nonlinear(非线性的),” said PIK Director, John Schellnhuber. “If we venture far beyond the two degrees guardrail, toward the four degrees line, the     7     of crossing tipping points rises sharply. The only way to avoid this is to break the business-as-usual pattern of     8     and consumption.”

The World Bank Group's work on inclusive green growth has found that with more     9     and smarter use of energy and natural resources,     10     exist to greatly reduce the climate impact of development without slowing poverty alleviation(减轻;缓和)or economic growth.
