参考答案:  A


本题详细解析:

A

$\underset{‾}{\text{Explanation}}$:
Statement I: Trading partners often retaliate with their own forms of trade protection and this may set off a trade war.

Statement II: Tariffs and other forms of trade protection often lead to higher prices and create a welfare loss, thus resulting in an inefficient global allocation of resources.

Statement III: Protecting domestic jobs is a commonly cited argument for trade protection, because competition against lower-priced imports can lead to job losses in domestic industries.

Statement IV: If trading partners retaliate with their own trade protection measures then the country’s exports will be more expensive and less competitive, not more competitive.
