Africa's Dependence on Aid
hěn很duō nián多年lǐ里 ，fēi zhōu非洲guó jiā国家shōu dào收到le了hěn很duō多wài guó外国yuán zhù援助 ，tè bié特别shì是lái zì来自měi guó美国de的bāng zhù帮助 。
For many years, African countries have received a lot of foreign aid, especially help from the United States.
yǒu xiē有些rén人rèn wéi认为 ，zhè xiē这些yuán zhù援助bìng并méi yǒu没有ràng让fēi zhōu非洲biàn dé变得gèng更fù yǒu富有 ，fǎn ér反而ràng让yī xiē一些guó jiā国家biàn dé变得yī lài依赖wài bù外部bāng zhù帮助 。
Some people believe that this aid has not made Africa richer, but instead has made some countries dependent on external help.
zàn bǐ yà赞比亚jīng jì xué jiā经济学家mò yuē莫约shuō说 ，wài guó外国yuán zhù援助méi yǒu没有zhēn zhèng真正jiǎn shǎo减少fēi zhōu非洲de的pín kùn贫困 。
Zambian economist Moyo says that foreign aid has not truly reduced poverty in Africa.
tā她rèn wéi认为 ，fēi zhōu非洲guó jiā国家yīng gāi应该zì jǐ自己nǔ lì努力fā zhǎn发展jīng jì经济 ，ér而bú shì不是yì zhí一直děng等zhe着bié rén别人lái来bāng máng帮忙 。
She believes that African countries should work hard to develop their economies themselves, rather than always waiting for others to help.
mò莫yuē约hái还shuō说 ，tài太duō多de的yuán zhù援助kě néng可能huì会dài lái带来fǔ bài腐败hé和chōng tū冲突 。
Moyo also says that too much aid can lead to corruption and conflict.
tā她jiàn yì建议fēi zhōu非洲kě yǐ可以duō多hé和zhōng guó中国děng等guó jiā国家zuò shēng yì做生意 ，fā zhǎn发展mào yì贸易hé和tóu zī投资 ，zhè yàng这样kě yǐ可以bāng zhù帮助fēi zhōu非洲biàn dé变得gèng更qiáng dà强大 。
She suggests that Africa can do more business with countries like China, developing trade and investment, which can help Africa become stronger.
xiàn zài现在 ，yuè lái yuè越来越duō多de的rén人kāi shǐ开始sī kǎo思考 ，fēi zhōu非洲shì bú shì是不是yīng gāi应该jiǎn shǎo减少duì对wài guó外国yuán zhù援助de的yī lài依赖 ，xún zhǎo寻找zì jǐ自己de的fā zhǎn发展dào lù道路 。
Now, more and more people are beginning to think about whether Africa should reduce its dependence on foreign aid and find its own path to development.
